I was just wondering what people thoughts about golisopod/ garb (garbotoxin only) in the post ultra prism era?
 
It gets better, Cynthia and Pal Pad helps late game consistency problems. Zoroark variants stays dominant and we get a new powerful ability Pokémon which can be shut down - Magnezone.
 
I completely agree with @Calcab. As Golisopod Garbodor (only Toxin) is my pet deck, i have a lot experience with it. There are a lot of cons for Golie Garb:
+ with only Garbotoxin it is more consistent
+ Pal Pad helps gettin Guzma, Acerola, Cynthia back
+ Cynthia increases consistency
+ Decks run a low count of F.Blower
+ It locks Zoroark and decreases its power heavily
+ It can OHKO Lycanroc GC and after one Flying Flip Tapu Lele GX

I had already success with the deck:
BKT-BUS League Cup 1st
BKT-CRI League Challenge 2nd, Regionals Top 8
BKT-ULP League Challenge 2nd

what do you think of running oranguru from ulp as a stall deck counter? Any thoughts of what to remove to make space for it?
 
If stall decks are a problem, Oranguru can help. (I haven't battled any stall decks so they are no problem for me)

Take out Mewtwo EVO if you have no Buzzwole problems. Otherwise, remove Wimpod, an Energy or one of the draw supporters.
