This is a Lucario FCO list that I've been fiddling around with for about a week or so.
Pokemon (14):
4 Talonflame STS
4 Riolu FCO 45
4 Lucario FCO 63
2 Unown AOR

Trainers (38):
4 Captivating Poke Puff
4 VS Seeker
4 Ultra Ball
4 Trainers' Mail
2 Level Ball
2 Super Rod
1 Professor's Letter
1 Escape Rope
1 Buddy-Buddy Rescue

4 Professor Sycamore
4 N
2 Lysandre
1 Teammates
1 AZ

3 Exp. Share

Energy (8):
8 Metal Energy

Strategy:
So this deck's strategy is to use Lucario FCO to take big knockouts while winning the prize trade because it's a non-EX. Talonflame is in the list because it's a great starter, can get resources out of the deck quickly, and because it's an Evolution deck, it struggles when going second. Based on personal preference, you could replace Talonflame with more Unown/Kelfki STS. Captivating Poke Puff is an excellent way to get your opponent with more Pokemon on their bench, and can stall set up by forcing down Shaymins. The AZ is for Talonflame/stray Riolus.
Let me know if there's any improvements or glaring weaknesses. Thanks :)
 
There is a reason I don't want to combine Talonflame with Lucario. Even if I start with Talonflame, afterwards I'll need my opponent to knock it out. If I send it to the bench I'm just going to miss out on 60 extra damage with Lucario's Fight Alone attack.
I would also add a couple of Klefki to stand a better chance against megas.
Overall, it's a good list. I think this deck will surprise a lot of people next format.
