Expanded Genesect/Bronzong: Turbo edition

[TCG_Destory]

I have been experimenting with the Genesect-EX deck in Expanded, which appears to be rather solid for the current state of that format, as it can give Night March trouble (Drampa+Karen+Resistance), can be hard for Garbodor PsychicBox decks to take down and does not have many bad matchups overall (Volcanion of course but that's about it).
Right now my list has 9 Metal Energy, 2 Max Potion and 3 Professor Sycamore, however after testing and theorical thoughts I decided that I will put back the 4th Sycamore and 10th Energy, cutting both Max Potions, as they are rather situational and discarding all Metal Energy will not always be done. Putting the other two cards back mean more consistency and safer turns of attachments later on in the game.

So, here is what the changes bring the list I currently have to:

Pokemon - 16

1 Keldeo-EX BCR
4 Bronzor PHF
4 Bronzong PHF
3 Genesect-EX FCO
3 Shaymin-EX ROS
1 Drampa-GX GUR

Trainer - 34

3 Sky Field

1 Guzma
1 Hex Maniac
1 Karen
2 N
4 Professor Sycamore

3 Battle Compressor
3 Fighting Fury Belt
3 Float Stone
2 Level Ball
3 Trainers' Mail
4 Ultra Ball
4 VS Seeker

Energy - 10

10 Metal Energy

Notes: Drampa-GX is an alternate attacker and provides an easy GX attack as well as Energy disruption. Berserk is good in combination with Fighting Fury Belt and constant switching.
There are other possible Stadium cards for this deck. I believe Sky Field is the better option because you need to bench Bronzor + Shaymin-EX + Keldeo-EX as well as possibly, other Genesect-EX and Drampa-GX. It is also possible to compress away other Stadium cards once the Bench is fully set up.

What do you think of my list? What should I add or remove? I am a mostly Standard format player so there could be available cards that I've missed. I would like to know of any improvements I could make to this list.

Ace Specs are big in Expanded, so for this deck I'd suggest Computer Search (or Dowsing Machine as a downgrade). Otherwise, nice list. The Keldeo EX is a nice counter to Volcanion EX along with Rush In.

What about Choice Band? Maybe remove one Fighting Fury Belt (since Garbotoxin is so popular and people are playing lots of Field Blower).

Prof. Kukui could help with damage output or Iris from PLB.

Zoroark GX synergizes well with this deck as draw support and another way to discard energy. Maybe remove one Shaymin EX and one Sycamore for a 1-1 line.

Rescue Stretcher as a one of helps with discard Pokémon like a Genescet EX or Keldeo EX needed that turn.

Field Blower is crucial in this deck due to Ability lock removing the energy accerleration. Maybe remove on energy and a Battle Compressor for two of them.

Maybe a one-prize attacker like Heatran from PHF or the Genesect promo. Cobalion from STS helps late game too. Maybe add a few of these instead of the Zoroark GX line.

Anyways, I hope this helps! Let me know what you think, thanks!

I might run a Hoopa EX over one of the Shaymin but it looks good

would Zouark GX work in here to toss energy?
