First of all I have never played this deck, I just though it would be fun building a deck using all the guardian Pokemon. I guess the plan of attack would be to use mainly Bulu and Koko. Ideally I would have a wishful baton attached to them in case they get knocked out, which means I could bring out my Lele and use energy drive. Fini I think would be a last resort because I don't run a lot of water energy and not many ways to retrieve that energy from discard.

Most of my trainers are there just to get energy out or to move my Pokemon around. I added ninja boys thinking that if I get a Fini/Lele in the beginning, then I could switch them out for a Koko/Bulu. I could also keep on using Lele's wondertag more than the two times. I figured ninja boy would be better than Acerola/Super Scoop up because I wouldn't have to start setting up the energy all over again.

Finally, I know running three different energies is too much. I did think of using Baby Koko for its flying flip, but I didn't want it being the only non-GX Pokemon. maybe in the future more baby guardians will be released that use colorless attack.

EDIT

One thing I forgot to include was that this is supposed to be a guardians only deck. This means that I want to use at least 1 of each of the Tapus whether GX or normal it doesn't matter.

Also, I tagged this as standard but it does not have to necessarily stay that way. It's a deck meant to be more fun than competitive which means the more cards available to grab from the more fun it could be.

Thanks for any advice

I'd run a 7-5 split of Grass-Electric energy along with a 3-1-3 line of Vikavolt + Rare Candies so you can get energies on to Koko and Bulu faster. Hitting the wrong energy with Max Elixir is a possibility.

I have seen many Bulu/Koko decks run like this, but the main point that I kind of forgot to explain was that I only wanted to use the Guardian Pokemon. At least 1 of each (baby or GX) and only these.
