Discussion Self-Deckout strategies?

[DesmondPokemon]

I was wondering if anyone had tried to make cards like Orthworm PAR 138, Rabsca 014 SSP, and Wo-Chien 015 SSP work. I can obviously see the drawback of this strategy where you have to run through your own deck and risk losing to a deckout, but it does look like a fun deckbuilding challenge. Is the threat of fast decks like Charizard getting you before you can make it work too big?

I personally just to be on the safe side, would add a few cards that could help shuffle cards from your discard pile like super rods or something. I know super rods are a not very popular opinion but you could explore the variety of options. Other than that, I think the deck looks rather fun to use. Wishing you well. Happy deck building!

This is the decklist I came up with. I kinda just put stuff in that seemed good. Varoom and Revavroom are there to help draw along with Explorer's Guidance and Carmine to get cards off the top of the deck. Like someone suggested, I put in Super Rod. Trekking Shoes isn't in the deck just because I want this deck to work post-rotation. If I had Miriam SVI 179 I might put her in just to refill my deck so I don't deckout.

Blender discards 5 and Secret box discards 3 from hand but can get you stuff that also thins the deck (Ultra Ball, Reasearch, Carmine, ExplGuid,)
