As the title says, I'm going to the ARG Circuit Series tournament this Sunday here in Las Vegas (if you're going I'll see you there)! Problem is, I've been going back and forth on deciding a deck. I've been testing a lot and still don't feel like I've settled on a solid choice. The decks I've been testing are:

Buzzwole GX/Lycanroc GX
Zoroark GX/Lycanroc GX
Gardevoir GX
Xerneas Break/Silvally GX

I feel like Buzzwole/Lycanroc is a good choice because I'm predicting a lot of Zoroark, and I feel like BuzzRoc has a solid matchup against it. The deck I'm least excited about is Zoroark/Lycanroc, but I've been testing it because it's the most hyped deck at the moment and feel that it should be considered. I've been seriously considering Gardevoir the past couple days because it's kind of been slept on since Zoroark has risen in popularity and once set up Garde can dominate. Plus, I don't really anticipate many Metal deck, if any at all. Xerneas/Silvally (Zakary Krekeler's list) is more of a fun pick, but has proven to be competitive. It's not a deck that many are anticipating and in my testing I've noticed that it seems to have, for the most part, good matchups across the board, but I am a little concerned about running into Buzzwole and Lycanroc since they can OHKO Silvally.

Anyways, I'm just looking for opinions on what you would take!
 
I'd go with Buzzwole/Lycanroc, strong against Zoarark AND Sivally , but expect to see a lot of Golisopod GX if that's what you end up playing

That is what I decided on! I do think the Golisopod matchup is concerning, especially the Golisopod/Garbodor version, but I think it has good matchups overall.

exactly, Golisopod Garb is EVIL to Buzzwole/Lycanroc, but the Zoroark variant is more popular (which is around a 50/50 matchup)
 
Good luck man! I live in Vegas too, and if getting a babysitter for 2 kids wasn't so expensive I'd be there! Give em hell, bro.
 
Shame....with all that Golisopod expected, my Volcanion deck might have fared pretty well
