RE: Virizion/Genesect deck I need help

Damage amplification is key in this deck so I would consider running at least 3 copies of muscle band. Switch is arguably better than float stone and skyarrow bridge so I would personally just go with 4 switch to further consistency since switch will 'always' get you out of a situation. No more than 4 switching cards are really needed since you have verdant wind to get you out of special condition locks. Also a professors letter is key in this deck since getting a turn 2 virizion is huge for this deck and profs letter helps you nicely to achieve this. A second shadow triad would fit nicely into this deck, as so would a town map since you rely on G Booster so much, prizing it, or discarding it can be game breaking, so ensuring that you can get it out easily and keep it in play is what you need to do. Otherwise than this, the list seems pretty straight and consistant and should be able to do well in a tourney.

For these changes you could take out any combination of the following: 2 energy switch, 1 colress machine, 3 float stone and 2 skyarrow bridge.

Good luck for the tournament on the weekend and hope this advice helped :)
