RE: Hax Axe

Haxorus is not a steel type and will therefore not be protected by Klinklang's ability. If you used the Klinklang from BW it could be a way to shift energies around to minimize lost energies. Another idea would be to use Altaria to boost damage output (then again if you use Altaria..I prefer Garchomp over Haxorus). Other than that the trainers and energy amount seem good.

RE: Hax Axe

Oh thank you. I'll try Altaria and see if it works. Check out all the changes I made.

If you're playing Jirachi-EX you might want to play Scoop Up Cyclone as your Ace Spec, instead.
Giving away 2 prizes for 90HP and also losing your one Jirachi would suck. It's a shame Super Scoop Up is getting rotated.

RE: Hax Axe

I also agree with Ryan, Scoop Up Cyclone is a good pair with Jirachi, not only with its low HP, but with its ability. Also, I see you didn't have any Catchers (I know they are hard to get, but they are an important asset). I'm not going to say play four becuase of their price, however it is usually a staple to see four in any deck. To make room you could take out the Colress because it doesn't seem like your bench will be full, and you won't be able to take full advantage of the card. Pokemon Communication is good, but most of the pokemon in your deck are Level Ball capable.

In summary:
-1 Dowsing Machine
+1 Scoop Up Cyclone
-3 Colress
+3 Catcher (if you are able to get another one then definitely include it)
-4 Pokemon Communication
+3 Level Ball
+1 Silver Bangle (I see you have one, another one should help with consistancey.

Hope this helps, and anyone who sees any flaws in my changes please correct me because I just recently got back into TCG.

Pokemon catcher is now in a theme deck and in the plasma blast set.And is now considered as a Uncommon card for plasma blast. The price for them should be around 5 in USD

I have Catcher and I don't have Pokemon Communication but thanks for the advice. I'm going to use Scoop Up Cyclone, it helped me last game I played. I'll take out 3 Colress because I have enough supporters and I'm going to use Level Ball for Altaria, Jirachi EX, and other basics. I'm adding a Silver Bangle as well. Check out my updated list.
