I'd find room for 1, maybe 2 Shaymin-EX, and at least 3 Ultra Balls. Personally I'd replace the Roller Skates, but I don't like coin flips so it depends on what you prefer.

Another card I find works with Trevenant is Absol (ROS). It lets you move 3 damage counters from one of your opponent's Pokemon to another, and can be useful as Tree Slam does spread damage. If you decide to use Absol, I would recommend an AZ or two- maybe even some Super Scoop Ups because they let you recycle your Shaymins and Trees, too. Do be aware that Silent Lab will shut down both Absol and Shaymin, though.

I think the deck needs 2 Sacred Ash, also- at 110HP Trevenant is a little frail, so even with you slowing them down there's the chance they can catch up and KO it a few times.

Other than that, I'd say your list is looking good. Glad to see more people running Trevenant!
