I r8 your list 8/10. I feel like Acerola can be good here. Pick up Buzzwole and slap him right down. Also needs Basic energy. You dont want to lose to Xurkitree ._.

EDIT: Realization of garb .-.

I actually like your list. Buzzwole GX does need competitive play but I'm surprised nobody realized the 190( with a max 270) damage! I also agree with mixing this with ability lock Garb. The only threat I can think of Is Xurkitree, but your ability lock does wonders towards countering it. I like the use of Non meta cards infused within a great competitive deck!

How much testing have you done with this? Balancing out your energies seems tough to handle, especially when you have one that can only be attached to Buzzwole.

I wouldn't say that this is a good list to be completely honest with you (more of the gimmick with Landorus-EX pretty much being reprinted), and no I haven't done much testing.
I'm honestly going more towards Buzzwole/Zygarde/Garb for a Buzzwole list, since it seems more consistent.

I am a former Big Basics with Garbodor deck player; so, when I saw that Landorus EX (one of my all-time favorite Pokémon) was going to be released in the form of Buzzwole GX, I had to build a Buzzwole-Garbodor deck.

@TSA123 - what is your deck strategy? This is important to know since follow-on comments will take that under consideration. In my case, I intend to Jet Punch my opponent's "strategic" Pokémon as long as I need to and then devolve my opponent's Staged Pokémon for multiple (hopefully) prizes. So, I run Espeon EX.

Lusamine is also another good card to use too in order to recover discarded Stadium(s) and/or Supporter(s). By incorporating this Supporter, you could drop a Guzma and a Skyla.

Further, IMO, the Hoopa is not that effective since so many players run 3 Guzma; so, your opponents will just Guzma around your potential "wall."

Why no Acerola or Max Potion?

Lastly, I prefer Fighting Fury Belts to Choice Bands. Thoughts?
