I would remove the 2 grass before changing anything else because yanmega is meant to attack for free. If you can't, simply retreat and use another attacker because it's not worth charging him up. So:
-2 grass
I add in 2 more pokemon reversal to help with more consistent switches.
+2 reversal

I'm thinking if 11 energy would be enough. What do you think?

True but pokemon reversal isnt that good right now maybe when pokemon catcher comes out ill add 2. i think 11 is fine but is there anything worth adding.
maybe another switch for donphan i dk

You could really bump up the Donphan line, and I don't think Cleffa is helping this list too much.

-2 Cleffa
+1-1 Donphan Prime

You should never need to use Grass Energy to power up Yanmega, especially since you are running 4 Copycat and 3 Judge.

-2 Grass Energy
+1 Collector (This is really needed in your opening hand)
+1 Pokemon Reversal.

Please add the set abbreviation/number of the Phanpy, Yanmega, (I assume this is Prime though) and Donphan (Same for Yanmega) to the first post. Also please add the strategy in the first post. Thanks

 

[gump713]

Bump.

Skipped? I think...Anyway, I'll help you out a little so you can edit something in while following my other post.

-3 Sp. Dark
+2 Fighting
+1 Pokemon Communication

3 Dark just for Zoroark? I find that it's too frail to use as a search engine, and the extra damage doesn't really matter when you run 2 Pluspower (Soon to be 3) and 3 Junk Arm. You definitely need more than 4 energy for Donphan, the way we're going to work it. And max Communication for an Evolution deck.

-2 Copycat
+1 Judge
+1 Pluspower

Judge will always be better than Copycat. Judge can be used in so many ways, but Copycat is just for more cards in comparison to Judge. Pluspower is what makes this deck good. You'll usually be just 10 off for a OHKO.

-2 PONT
+1 Juniper
+1 Elm

You're already shuffling in your hand with 6 cards, so Juniper gives things a variety. Elm is to search out evolutions, which is a good chunk of your deck.

-1-1 Cinccino OR Zoroark
+1-1 Donphan

Donphan is awesome. When all else fails, you have a 120HP Stage 1 with a built in Defender. I'd take out the Zoroark over Cinccino, but it's your choice.

since i have a 3-3 cincinno ill take out 1 line. i usually play decks like magneboar and zekrom speeddeck and reshiboar so i need zoroarks attack to kill them easy. i guess can takeout spec dark

 

[Matryoshka]

Zoroark doesn't do much against Magnezone. You just spam Cinccino and Donphan to win. Yanmega early game.
