Strategy:

Need 3 more obviously (perferably pokemon)

The idea is to quickly set up a Sceptile EX and the excessive use of Imakuni and Hypnotoxic Laser will keep my opponent with a special condition while Sceptile EX can then deal at least 180 on a regular basis. So the idea is speed and additional special condition support.

This deck will have an issue against Primal Groudon variants. Against night march though Sceptile EX OHKO's Joltik with one energy and a muscle band. This deck is just an idea, so I don't think it will ever hit Meta.
 
Drop the Virizion and add in a 2-2 of ariados. Or drop the Imakuni's, since they confuse YOUR pokemon.

-3 Imakuni
-1 Muscle Band
-1 Shadow Triad
-1 Giovanni's Scheme
-1 Virbank City Gym

+2-2 Ariados AOR
+2 Skyla
+1 Forest of Giant Pants Or +2 IF you drop the Virizion

Just my opinion, but I think the Skyla will help you get that laser when needed. and i highly doubt you'll need FOUR Virbanks.
 
Oh ya Imakuni does confuse my mon. I guess Imakuni got me too. :):):)

I don´t like how ariados is gonna have trouble with the constantly played GARBODOR any ideas?
Oh and with Ariados should I play bats?

Ok, I think that if you want a speedier set up, add some krikitot from brp.
I think Krikitot would be worse case scenario because I can usually get a Sceptile EX going in one to two turns easily. And usually by doing that I just run into a Forest and my Ariados chain. I have seen some people play this with bats, should I do the same or keep the deck simpler?
