Strategy:
The main aspects of this deck are 1-Hit KO's combine with Recycling...
I'm attempting a solid deck not only to counter Luxchomp but to be a major SP threat, for the recycling aspect if you discard a few Magikarp using Junk Arm (ie: x3 for 90 damage or x2 for 60 damage) from your hand after you have used 1 to evolve Gyarados which then makes it's "Tail Revenge" attack cost 0 Energy, if Gyarados is KO'd there are a few ways to recover it (recycle) like using Energy Recycle which will return Gyarados and Mapikarp to your hand or you can use Seeker combine with Warp Energy just Warp, Seeker to Heal, play Gyarados and you can retreat if necessary.
Now on to Machamp, obviously Machamp SF's "Take Out" is a 1 Energy auto KO for any SP as it's not evolved which is great in itself but also combine that with with Machamp Prime's high HP which makes him a difficult Pokemon to KO, plus factor is Machamp Prime's "Champ Buster" attack which does major damage (100+10 for any damage counter on your benched Pokemon) plus even more if you add in an Expert Belt also you may use the same idea with Machamp Prime as you did with Gyarados with the switch and heal tactic.

Anyway any thoughts/ideas/possible changes are welcome... thanx everyone... : D
 
Machamp SF is not a OHKO for Toxicroak G due to anticipation. Just so ya know.
Also, replace SSU. Perhaps with Warp Point?
Rescue Energy won't help you much if I understand it correctly... I think it only gives you back the top pokémon and not what it evolved from. You should replace some with fighting energy or other cards
I also see you're not running Collector... that will help a whole lot. Get your Magikarp to discard, your Uxie for drawpower, your Machop to get a Machamp out... it'll help a lot with so many lines.
That's about it. It's a really interesting idea; i like it!
 
so replace SSU x2 with Warp Point x2, what should I take out for Pokemon Collector x2?
 
@ Scissorlicious: Not true. Rescue energy gets back the whole Pokemon, just not anything that was attached to it(energy, pokemon tools, TGI's, etc).
