@StealthAngel: You're wrong, and I'll tell you why.
A tech is a card put into a deck to counter a specific bad matchup or several specific bad matchups. Other Pokémon are either supporting cards or main attackers.
With Rikko145's example of 3-3 Zoroark and 3-2-3 Kingdra (or even bumped up to 4-2-4 and 4-4), Zoroark is basically the main focus of the deck– the overlying goal is to get Zoroark out and Kingdra out and attack with them when convenient, and maybe another Stage 1 if the deck includes it (Yanmega, for example). Zoroark makes the deck– without Zoroark, it would be a Yandra deck. But the point is that you will be actively getting out Zoroark in most matchups– it is a main attacker, like it or not. You'll use it against DD, Reshiram, Zekrom, most likely Yanmega (so you don't have to match hand size), Stage 1 (although Kingdra could do well also), Cinccino, and Blastoise/Feraligatr/Floatzel, just to name a few meta decks where your Zoroark will definitely be used to attack. I don't know about you, but that doesn't sound like a tech to me.
And while you say that Zoroark doesn't accelerate the main strategy of the deck, I beg to differ. The overall goal is to win by drawing six prizes, no? And with Zoroark/Kingdra/Yanmega, the strategy is to get knockouts on whatever you can to win, be it sniping or flat-out attacking with Yanmega, placing damage or attacking with Kingdra, or getting some good damage in with Zoroark.
Zoroark is not a tech because the purpose of this deck involves getting Zoroark out– it helps against too many matchups to simply be a tech.
