-1 Toad
-1 Mr. Mime
-2 Grass
+2 Shaymin
+2 Level Ball

If you only run 2 Shaymin EX you will lose. if you can't manage to get 4 then you NEED 3.
Test out these changes and let me know what you think! Got Top 4 at States with a similar list to what I suggested you change.
 
why Seismitoad ex? assumeu set vileplume up it's item lock already.

Toxicrock ex maybe an excellent counter to Aegislash ex, otherwise it's autoloss
 
@MewtwoberTCG

The UK National Championships was recently won by Tamao Cameron who was playing Vesipquen/Vileplume. An interview with him and an in depth look at the deck can be found here. I'd recommend this as a great place to draw inspiration from.

Looking at your list now, however, I would make the following adjustments:

-1 Seismitoad-EX
-1 Mr.Mime
-2 Revitaliser
-1 Training Centre
-2 Grass Energy

+2 Shaymin-EX
+1 Toxicroak-EX
+2 Level Ball
+1 Trainers' Mail
+1 Forest of Giant Plants
 
Here is the updated list.

Pokemon 27
4 Combee AOR 9
4 Vespiquen AOR 10
3 Unown AOR 30
4 Oddish AOR 1
3 Gloom AOR 2
3 Vileplume AOR 3
3 Shaymin-EX ROS 106
1 Bunnelby PCL 121
1 Toxicroak-EX FLF

Items/Supporters/Stadiums 29
4 Battle Compressor
4 Ultra Ball
3 Acro Bike
3 Trainer's Mail
2 Float Stone
2 Revitalizer
2 Professor Sycamore
2 Lysandre
1 AZ
3 N
4 FOGP

Energy 6
4 DCE
2 Grass


Explanation

3 N: At the end of the game normally I will have a big hand and a small deck with no way to put cards back. N can help in a "deck out" situation

2 Grass: For the Tina match.

1 Mr. Mime: Trev BREAK is looking like it will be very popular at Nats and I don't want to be losing prizes from the bench.

Mr. Mime doesn't block silent fear. You're better off hoping to win the coin flip and getting a turn one lock. If you can do that, you should roll over them
 
the new turbo toad deck that won german national plays one aegislash ex, swap that mr mime with toxicrock ex otherwise you autoloss.

some play 2 level balls, some play 2 revitalizer, they both has advantage over the other, try it out to see which one suit you most

I never realized that. I thought Mr. Mime blocked damage counters and damage because it says "Prevent all damage done to your Benched Pokemon by attacks."

Doing damage and placing damage counters are not the same thing. Placing damage counters is an effect.
