The idea is to use circle circuit Raichu to hit heavy damage. The problem is that losing Sky Field means our damage drops from a potential of 160 down to just 100 and Parallel City decreases it to a measly 60.

I've tried to recover from this by using Foongus. He recycles Poke Balls into our hand meaning not only is the initial setup fast but recovery from a Parallel City is easy by using Revitalizer.

Another problem is Garbodor so I've enlisted the help of a second rodent; Minccino! Cleaning Up removes any tool from our opponent's side. So not only does Garbodor lose its tool but you can remove any Spirit Links or Fighting Fury belts, etc.

Bursting Balloon rounds off the extra damage needed to hit 220 HP and makes numbers in general a little nicer.

More recycling comes in the form of Special Charge for the DCE and Eco Arm for a total of 7 chances to use Balloons.

Random Receiver allows us to hit Brigette quickly to fill the bench.

I hope you like it. Obviously there's an option to shoehorn in Shaymin for draw power but I'll leave that up to you whether the budget option satisfies your deck cravings.
