Following are a few thoughts for your consideration:
  • I too am a huge Landorus EX fan and player in the Expanded format. In Expanded format play tournaments, I expect to see "lots" of Seismitoad EX, Blastoise - Keldeo EX, Trevenant (Item Lock), Night March, VespiPlume, Yveltal and Garbodor variant decks. If you're concerned about any of those decks, then you may want to consider some techs for your deck. From my experience, cards like Regirock EX, for example, are more of a liability than an asset.
  • 2 Tapu Lele GX and 2 Shaymin EX, although offering lots of versatility, seem excessive. I run just 1 of each in all my decks now and find that to be quite sufficient along with "strong" card-draw support (e.g., 3 N and 4 Professor Sycamore). In your case, when you're Ability-locked, the 2 Professor Sycamore and 2 N may be woefully insufficient. Further, should you need to use 3 of these Pokémon, your bench could be come "clogged" very quickly, thus putting you in a potential disadvantage.
  • Consider running 1 Parallel City to remove unwanted/unneeded Pokémon from your bench.
  • Consider incorporating Fighting Fury Belts instead of Regirock EXs.
  • Lysandre and Korrina both are too valuable, IMO, to just run 1 copy. Should either/both of these be prized, you'll be at significant disadvantage.
I hope you find these comments helpful.
