Strategy:
Ok so i have been playing for about two weeks and this is the first deck i have built. The strategy i have is a nightmarch check with jolteon and with the free retreats to Lugia with float stones to keep them rotated taking out weakened pokemon. i have the magnezones to keep the pokemon energized.

I entered a tournament last night and it has come to my conclusion that i need to speed the deck up to get out stuff faster, especially magnezone which is hard to set up. one of my opponents was telling me to maybe switch out the zapdos for raikou. what do you guys think

Update 1:

Subtracted
:
Zapdos x2
Wally x2
Bridgette x1
Professor's Letter x3
Winona x1
Mountain Ring x2

Added:
Trainer's Mail x3
Professor Sycamore x3
N x2
Rare Candy x1
Vs Seeker x2

After this first update i am waiting on the rest of my cards to arrive. i need to add

Vs Seeker x2
Rare Candy x1
Magnemite x2
Magnezone x2
Shaymin x2

what do yall recommend i switch out/or dont add

shaymin EX (if you can) you also need draw support, at least 3 sycamore and 2 N. Not sure you really need wally also professor letter can be removed for trainers mail, 4 vs seekers are a must. I don't see a need for skyla and im noat a fan of zapados. If you cant afford a shaymin run an octillary line. no need for Bridgette or winona. I would do 3 lugia and 3 lugia break with a 4-2-4 line for maznazone up the rare candy by 2.
 
ok how many shaymins would you run? and would you run escape rope/switch just in case someone lysandre magnezone or somethin to stall?
 
I would suggest dropping the magnezone line. A Max Elixir engine would speed you up considerably.

-3-3 Lugia Break Line (Lugia EX is a bit better)
-1 Evosoda (Mag dropped. Not needed)
-1 Rare Candy (Mag Dropped, not needed)
-2-2-2 Magnezone Line (Slow, Clunky, Not needed with DCE+Lightning)
-3 Clemont (With less reliance on it, its pretty useless)
-2 Float Stone (Don't really need them)
-1 Fisherman (Super rod is a bit better here)

+2-2 Zebstrika Line (See above)
+4 Max elixir (Helps with energy acceleration. High Lightning count is useful with max elixir)
+2 Shaymin EX (Draw Support)
+2 Rough Seas (Healing mainly)
+3 Lugia EX (Nice solid attacker. Useful to have around)
+4 Muscle Bands (Buffs Damage, which is nice. Can drop a couple if not needed)
+1 Super Rod (Is really nice)

Maybe dropping the lightning energy count is something. 7-9 is usually enough.
