Scrap Metal Deck (Garbodor deck)

So this is a new idea on the garbodor variants that ive been testing out, and would appreciate any suggestions to it.

Scrap Metal
Pokemon
4 Trubbish (NV 48)
3 Garbodor (DR 54)
3 Cobalion (NV 84)
2 Registeel EX (DR 81)
1 Mewtwo EX (ND 98)

Supporters/ trainers
4 Professor Juniper (DE 98)
4 Pokemon Catcher (EP 95)
2 Ultra Ball (DE 102)
4 Switch (BW 104)
4 N (NV 92)
3 Heavy Ball (ND 88)
4 Rescue Scarf (DR 115)
2 Exp Share (ND 87)
3 Cheren (DE 91)
1 Tool Scrapper (DR 116)
3 Eviolite (NV 91)

Energy
4 Double Colorless Energy (ND 92)
9 Metal Energy (BW 112)

So basically the strategy is to get turn 2 garbodor with either heavy or ultraballs, and start building cobalions; use the registeel to start spreading dmg on the main attackers of each deck (darkrai, garchomp, etc) and catcher them around and using eviolite to reduce dmg on registeel and cobalion; then get cobalion out and iron break for stop opponent's attacking and forcing retreats + swtiches.

Since there are no abilities in use decks like darkrai, cant get free retreat + free energy movement; return energies from discard, or any other accelerating abilities it totally breaks all meta decks, almost instant win against darkrai variants.

I know its a very slow deck in means of attacking, cause you need 3 turns for cobalion (2 turns if you get dce with registeel); but it is worth the wait, cause once you start hitting with cobalion theres almost no stoping the deck.

Thankyou for any additions/modifications :)
 
Oh my god im in love, this is amazing, excellent idea. :D i honestly cant thnk of any improvementa off the top of my head.
 
TY very much for your posts :) And ty for the compliments regi, this deck was for early autumn battle roads, so its a bit out dated i'm gonna have to make some changes, as it would really like the use of skyla nad yeah dropping one trubbish, again ty for your posts, ill try to make the changes as soon as posible
 
how is this an instant win against darkrai?
too many ways to get catcher stalled.
registeel is catcher bait and after they have catcher stalled your registeel, they will catcher stall your garbodors.

it can't be instant win against darkrai, because darkrai runs sableye and their catchers are unlimited, you only have 4 switch.
just stating the facts, a sableye and catchers/hammers will easily walk over this deck. the free retreat is never a necessity in darkrai it just helps.
i think darkrai is probably your worst matchup lol..

It is true that it ain't a instant win, nothing is. But that isn't what he said, he said it almost was a instant win.

not matter if they catcher or not, then they still can't attack because of Cobalion's attack. Tool scrapper seems to be the bad boy against this deck. If they remove your tools on your Garbador then they can retreat freely and attack.
