I have been trying numerous Counter Box ideas but this one must be on the top of my list. It is a very nice rogue deck that surprisingly does better than what it looks like.
It relies on coin flips, Counter Energy and comeback mechanics but this little packing is sure to bring some tears.

The idea? Stall with Heracross BUS in the active.
Heracross BUS
Ability: "Guts"
If this Pokémon would be Knocked Out by damage from an attack, flip a coin. If heads, this Pokémon is not Knocked Out, and its remaining HP becomes 10.
Pitch (50dmg)
Your opponent switches their Active Pokémon with 1 of their Benched Pokémon.
Heracross BUS serves to stall and setup OHKO. If Heracross is to be taken out by damage but saved by "Guts", it means that Heracross BUS becomes the perfect vessel for Machamp-Ex. Use Ninja Boy and hit for 200dmg without a Choice Band using "Steaming Mad". This little gimmick allows us to take 1-2 easy prizes from time to time as long as we can play Ninja Boy and "Guts" worked out.
I decided to include a single copy of Minior GRI. It works very well against Ex-GX decks since 190dmg can OHKO almost everything. Trading 1 prize for 2 prize seems legit most of the time. Minior GRI sitting on the bench with a Fighting Energy attached will make your opponent think twice before taking a prize card. Attaching a Counter Energy is all it takes to bring down even the strongest pokémons.
Since this decks slows the pace of the game and plays a lot of single cards, Gladion is a very good addition making sure you don't have an important card prized.
While your opponent tries to go through your multiple Heracross BUS, attach Counter Energy on Regirock PR-XY. Slowly build a Nuclear Bomb. When Regirock PR-XY is stacked with 3 Counter Energy, you can Ninja Boy into Mew FCO to copy Guzzlord-Gx from the bench for 4 prizes.
