If I might recommend:

- Replace one of the Tapu Lele GX and possibly a Judge for two Nest Balls.

- I would also replace either one Dunspearce or Deoxys for a Pokémon Fan Club (The rotation is right around the corner. If it wasn't so close, I would swap it out for a Bridgette instead).

Nest Ball I’m kind of iffy on because I’m already running Dunsparce to get basics out. PFC is also not really needed for this reason

Fair enough.
It’s just that in a scenario where you don’t have dunsparce in you starting hand, you can’t get basics into your bench quickly.
But I can definitely see why you can run the deck without PFC and Nest Ball.

Actually, I can definitely see Nest Ball being added.

-1 Lele
-1 Grass Energy
-2 Dunsparce

+4 Nest Ball

If I can suggest.
Run two nest balls and ne PDC. You run Tapu Lele GX so it is pretty easily searchable.
But either way, whatever you do, the deck should work great!

I'd at least experiment with Apricorn maker in every Zoroark deck post-rotation as the turn 1 supporter. I'd drop the order Pads for 2x Apricorn maker and max out the Judge count since that one is probably the best supporter to play before attacking with Shiftry. I'd also try to squeeze in 1 Marshadow SLG so that you can have the chance to use Mallow and Extrasensory on the same turn.
