    3 Oddish (BCR 1)
    4 Pachirisu (PHF 25)
    3 Vileplume (BCR 3)

    4 Team Plasma Badge
    3 Hypnotoxic Laser
    1 Lysandre's Trump Card
    1 Switch
    2 Colress
Energy:

  • 9 Lightning Energy

Strategy:
trick sticker deals 10 damage but converts your opponents weakness to lightning so in reality it does 20 damage... but here comes the good part, when you add 4 power connects with a plasma badge the damage goes up from 10 to 50 plus the conversion of weakness makes it 100 damage for 1 energy... but then (heh heh heh) you use vileplume to make that weakness x4 and the damage takes a nasty little spike to 200, and then add a laser and you've reached the 210 marker for mega Gardevoir. And the best part is, that it takes only a single energy (not to mention the prize trade). XD

I'd recommend more switching cards, starting with Deoxys can be unfortunate. Why 4 Rare Candy? You have a 3-1-3 line so 3 Rare Candy is preferred.
 
RE: Trick Sticker (Pachirisu/Vileplume/Deoxys-EX)

So switch a rare candy for another float stone? I was actually thinking about that myself, but I wanted to see if any one had the same idea I had, because I was scared I would be unable to get Vileplume up in time for the OHKO because the max damage Pachirisu can deal without a Vileplume up is 100. So thank you, I'll make the change right now.
 
RE: Trick Sticker (Pachirisu/Vileplume/Deoxys-EX)

Trick Sticker doesn't change their weakness until after you've done the damage, so each target requires two attacks in order to OHKO. By this time, Pachirisu will be dead, leaving you with ~2 chances to KO a target, not to mention that if they run away at all your attack has been for nothing.

If you want to try using Deoxys-EX and Vileplume together, consider using Eeveelutions, who can transform into a multitude of types (and can actually do real damage) without cluttering up your deck. Don't forget to add in megaphones/Xerosic somewhere to discard Silver Mirror.

I think you need to read the card again...

Because as far as I can see it says your opponents Pokémon's weakness is now lightning until the end of your next turn. It never said anything about it not changing before the damage. So I think it's pretty clear to me that it's weakness is converted to lightning before the damage, and continues until the end of your next turn. Which means that when your next turn of damage happens the effect will be gone, unless you use the same attack to refresh the effect. (At least this is what happened when I tested this deck online)
 
RE: Trick Sticker (Pachirisu/Vileplume/Deoxys-EX)

You always do damage before applying effects of the attack unless the attack specifically says to apply them before you do damage.

oh? well that's news to me, so I guess what your saying is that what I've been testing and winning with is just a glitch in the program? Well back to the drawing board for more original ideas. x sighs x :(

That's sad. Where did you test this?
 
RE: Trick Sticker (Pachirisu/Vileplume/Deoxys-EX)

As of right now, Pachirisu only changes it after the damage is dealt according to PokePop. Sorry, mate! Can't say I didn't have the same idea.

I tested this on TCGone.net it's a great program XD, though it looks like there are still some glitches.

Indeed.

Mew Ursaring Kyurem does not work there either.
