Your Energy list is overkill. Machamp never needs 22 Energy, even with KGl (no deck needs 22 Energy even). You don't need Gatr Prime, since your only Water type in the deck is KGl. Your main attacker is Machamp too, so you'll never have the need to attack with Gatr. Machamp Lv.X, sadly, is completely outclassed by Machamp Prime due to higher damage and is easier to setup. Two SF and two Prime for consistency. The other cards were random and unnecessary.

Pokemon Collector gets you Basic Pokemon to setup, so you don't need to waste a Bebe's on just getting Uxie. DCE for faster attachment, Palmer's for recovery, Uxie Lv.X for draw, and Luxury Ball/Pokemon Communication is another search aside from Bebe's. Both of them are much better than the limited PETM. BTS is for setup, and PONT/Giratina is for disruption and draw.

I left 5 spaces open, so really you could just throw in any extra you want. I'd consider looking into some draw cards.
 
You'll be better off running 3-1 Uxie Lv.X than 2-2 Uxie Lv.X since you can use Uxie's Setup more often, since Trade Off is limited once per turn.
 
Sorry, but i looked on the internet and the cheapest Uxie X I could find was $70! I don't think ill be spending that much on just one card. Oh, and which platinum giratina were you talking about, cuz theres 3 different kinds.
 
The one with the Let Loose Poke Power, which shuffles each player's hand into their deck. Then, both players draw up to four cards. It's disruptive, but should also be paired with Seeker or something to pick it up.
 
ok so u dont want me to use dragonbreath cuz that requires psychic energy, which u didnt reccomend.
 
No, since there is no point. One, you'd have to tech in another Psychic Energy. Two, what does Giratina (Dragonbreath) do to help Machamp? Nothing.
