Gyarados (Masters/Juniors - Cities)

My son and I have been playing Gyarados for awhile now but after the rotation of Felicity's the deck's consistency has really slowed. But with a few of the new cards in the new set, I think it could once again be tier one. My son is actually one of the best players in the area at his age so I want to get this right for him.

Pokemon (20):
4 Sableye SF
4 Magikarp SF
4 Gyarados SF
2 Uxie LA
2 Crobat G PL
1 Unown Q MD
1 Regice LA
1 Azelf LA
1 Combee SF

T/S/S (34):
4 BTS
4 Pokemon Collector
3 Bebe's Search
3 P.O.N.T.
2 Expert Belt
4 Pokemon Rescue
4 Junk Arm
4 Scoop Up
3 Poke Turn
1 Luxury Ball
2 Pokemon Communication

Energy (6):
4 Rescue Energy
2 Warp Energy

Our previous pre-rotation lists contained Combee SF, 4 Call Energy, and 2 Cyclone Energy. Are any of those necessary now?

Any advice you can provide would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Edit: Made a few changes after play-testing it a bit.
 
Hi, there i run a gyarados, i think that i would put the combee, if trainer look is big in your meta game, u need this little bee to bypass the lock and get you a karp. Besides the list looks good
 
Yes, the 4 BTS are for fast recovery. Thanks for the advice so far. I definitely plan to put Combee back in.
 
IMO Play Seeker and one less Junk Arm. Here's a list off the top of my head.


4-3 Gyarados
4 Sableye
2 Bat
1-1 Dialga
1 Regice
1 Azelf
1 Uie
1 Mesprit
=21

4 Collector
2 Cyrus
4 SSU
4 Seeker
3 Jank Arm
4 Rescue
2 E-Belt
1 Luball
3 Bebes
2 Volkners
4 Turn
2 BTS

3 Warp
3 Rescue
 
I would run it like zangooses list but I would change minus 3 junk arm because of trainer lock to 2 twins to get dialga x and warp faster and 1 combee. Minus 4 poke turn for 4 cyclone energy . minus 4 rescue for 4 call energy. Minus 2 crobat for 1 honchcrow g to get stadiums and registeel. Turn warp energy to warp point because better disruption and u can use when dialga x is out. Minus 2 volkner for 2 cyrus because volners is too slow
 
@YoungNes: Minus 4 poke turn minus 2 bats? Minus 2 volkner becuase it is too slow in a gyarados deck? do you play a gyarados deck?
 
Yeah i do and the bats and poketurn arent that great in my opinion if u just do cyclone u get prizes quicker and with all the cards being drawn with uxie and u can cyrus twins maybe 2 cyrus 2 volkners. im just saying that because u already have enough draw with uxie and twins i dunno just my opinion
