POKEMON: 22
3-2-3 Tyranitar Prime (UL-SF-UL)
1-1-1 Nidoqueen (TM-RR-RR)
2-1 Uxie Lv X (LA-LA)
1-1 Umbreon (UD-UD)
1 Azelf (LA)
1 Unown Q (MD)
4 Sableye (SF)


TRAINERS/SUPPORTERS/STADIUMS: 24
4 Rare Candy
2 Warp Point
1 Luxury Ball
1 VS Seeker
2 Expert Belt

4 Bebe's Search
3 Prof. Oak's New Theory
3 Pokémon Collector
1 Palmer's Contribution

3 BTS

ENERGY: 14
1 Psychic Energy
1 Rescue Energy
4 Darkness Energy
4 DCE
4 Special Dark Energy

Strategy: lead with Sableye and get setup. Tyranitar spreads damage to every non-Dark Pokémon in play, while Nidoqueen makes it bulkier and softens the damage I do to my own benched Uxies. Uxie X acts as a Machamp counter and serves draw power. Umbreon against Pokémon with Poké-Powers/Bodies.

Rate please
 
I would play a 1-1-1 Nidoqueen line since there is a bunch of trainer locks out there.
But i don't know what to take out maybe a Rare Candy or a Lookers.
 
I would not run Azelf in a deck like this. The whole bench damaging shenanigans hurts Azelf and Uxie alot. I know you have Nidoqueen to offset this, but I think you may end up running out of bench space if you are not careful and becoming hindered by it alot. I would opt for a single Unown Q in this deck - it has proven well in my testing.
 
Yea, Nidoqueen prevents Darkness Roar from backfiring. I will add Unown Q and Nidorina as suggested - they were in my first list but for some reason I took them out. Keep the suggestions coming!
 
By power claw, I assume you mean Darkness Roar? Anyway, I really disliked having Uxie + Azelf benched as they really did become dead weight. I do believe 4 Rare Candy with 3 BTS is too much. Go 3-3 or 4 Candy and 2 BTS. I also do not think you need to be running Nidorina too much. Trainer lock may be widespread, but you have the edge in that match up anyway. Even with Nidoqueen active, Uxie and Azelf can still be KO'd by a single Shadow Room anyway. I would run a second Expert Belt, since belted Tyranitar takes an overwhelming behemoth to a whole new level of pure power. Instead of 4 PONT and a single Looker's I was using 3 PONT and 2 POV. I didn't bother with call energy in this deck. Ran rescue energy instead.
 
(slaps froehead) Sorry, my bad, got the moves mixed up. I can see where you are going with Uxie and Azelf. You could play Bench Shield or Manectric PL, although in this deck they are pretty bad. I did see one guy playing Bench shield on his Pixies at league once.
 
Bench Shield is a waste of space in my opinion. I wouldn't bother with Manetric either since Nidoqueen technically nullifies your own bench damage anyway. If you're really concerned about it, you could tech a seeker but then your opponent gets to recover one of their pokemon too (and obviously in general, they will choose one which is nearly dead). I recommend teching a Psychic Energy so you can attack with your Nidoqueen, as she can then become a secondary Machamp Counter.
 
Take out the one one umbreon and put 1+ 1+ darkri and crellia legend and take out the two psychich and put in two rainbow energy in.

Darkri and cresslia is good with tyranitar because of tyrantars first attack you can use moon light invite and knock out any one if your oppoent hase a lot of damage on his or her pokemon and if you put in rainbow energy on darki and cresslia you will be able to use its second attack while haveing a dce on it and when pokemon catcher comes out it will make this attack better.
 
I'd rather keep Umbreon. Its quite fast and shuts down so many things its not funny (including Donphan, which is dangerous).
