Hello guys!!
This is my second deck I built (by myself, but with the help of Empoleon, who gave me alot of good advices about building a deck. Thank you Empoleon!!).
I thing this one is better than my first deck (MetalicDrops Deck), but I think it can do better, I'm just not so sure of what to change...

Ok, there is the deck:

POKEMON~ 20:
4~2~3 Beautifly (3 EX Deoxis 82/ 1 EX Dragon 81~ Platinum 63~ Platinum 21)
0~1~1 Dustox (Platinum 44~ Platinum 25)
2~2 Toxicroak (EX-DPMT 78~ EX-DPMT 36)
2 Spiritomb (Arceus 32)
2-2 Claydol (GE)

ENERGY~ 16:
6 Grass Energy
4 Call Energy
3 Double Rainbow Energy

T/S/S~ 24:
4 Pokemon Communication
2 Holon Farmer
2 Holon Lass
3 Pokemon Collector
1 Luxury Ball
3 Twins
2 Professor Oak's New Theory
2 Professor Oak's Visit
4 Rare Candy
1 Palmer's Contributon
2 Expert Belt

STRATEGY~
This deck is mainly about getting the opponent hurt himself by poison. The Beautifly/ Dustox line has good poisoning effects (especially Beautifly) and it can evolve quickly from the deck and get Beautifly/ Dustox in a hurry.
Spiritomb is good for getting evolutions more quickly and so TM TS-1, And I can use most of the T/S/S and Call Energy to search for pokemon (including evolutions) from my deck or discard pile.
Claydol line is a great source of drawing power.

That's all for my new deck. So, what do you say? Any suggestion for improvements?
 
Seeing As Beautifly and Dustox can already poison the defending pokemon, drapion lvX doesn't seem needed, plus how do you plan on getting it back to the bench after leveling it up - you can't level up pokemon on the bench.

-2-1-1 Drapiobn lvX
-2 TM TS-1
-3 Cheerleaders's Chant
-2 Rainbow Energy
-4 {P} Energy (Toxicroak can poison with its attacks but i'd rather attach my energy to Beautifly or Dustox for the long run)

+4 Rare Candy (Fasting evolution)
+1 Palmer's Contributon (a form of reocovery)
+1 Beautifly PL
+2-2 Claydol - Great Encounters (a great source of draw power)
+3 Double Rainbow Energy (Get Beautifly to hit for 60 w/ colorful powerder quickly and for Dustox as well trhe downside is that all your attacks will do 10 less damage with DRE attached)
+2 Expert Belt (DRE is decreasing your damage output so Expert Belt will increase)
 
I added the first post with the changes of empoleon.
BTW, I made up a name for my deck. I call it PoisonShadow.
