Victini EX/ Delphox Speed Deck

[RoddyPie559]

Pokemon:

• 
  2x Torkoal
  2x Victini EX
  4x Fennekin
  2x Braixen
  3x Delphox

Trainers/Supporters/Stadiums:

• 
  4x Blacksmith
  3x Fiery Torch
  2x Great ball
  4x Muscle Band
  2x Ultra Ball
  2x Pokemon Fan Club
  3x Shauna
  3x Professor Juniper
  1x Colress
  1x Skyla
  3x Rare Candy
  2x Escape Rope
  2x Professor's Letter
  2x Switch
  1x Megaphone

Energy:

• 
  12x Fire

Strategy:
Victini starter active pokemon, and bench either a Fennekin or a Torkoal, or both. Rare Candy on Fennekin to get Delphox out there ASAP so I can abuse his ability, which allows me to get what I want faster and I can use up my hand, knowing I'm gonna get a new one the same turn. Early game, use Victini EX to help set up my bench as well as the 1 energy per turn. An Emboar would help A LOT, but I have to work with this right now haha. Late game, should have at least a Torkoal and another Delphox set up and ready to go to hit hard with Muscle Band, as well. Still need that Victory Piece for Victini, though hah.

***** Special thanks to my buddies who built this deck for me <3 *****

RE: Torkoal / Victini EX / Emogla Speed Deck

Not sure what your budget is, but I'll try to keep the suggestions cheap.

For your pokemon, you should consider Reshiram (with Outrage and Blue Flare), they're pretty cheap and I consider them the best fire type non-EX, non-evolving attacker. You shouldn't need the Emolgas, especially with Pokemon fan club. Right now, a Pyroar is an instant game over to you. Delphox is great if you can afford it, if not, you could go with Arcanine (with the Blazing Mane) ability as a cheaper substitute.

Your Victini really wants a Victory Piece, and it's not that pricey for an Ace Spec. You should be able to cut some of the energy as well. Add in some Professor's Letters. You can easily get away with 12 energy with 3-4 Professor's Letters. That will open some space for some more trainers. I don't see Pal Pad, Max Revive, or Random Receiver as necessary. 4 Ultra balls seem like way too much. I'd cut it down to 2. A single copy of Town Map, Super Rod, and Startling Megaphone are good to add in, and a few Switch/Escape Rope cards as well.

For your supporters, I'd recommend dumping the Pokemon Center Ladies and the Team Flare Grunts. You should be using your Blacksmith instead of Team Flare Grunt to power up your attacker and knock out your opponent quickly so there should be no need to use up your valuable supporter for the turn on removing an energy that would get tossed out when you KO a pokemon anyways. Other good and cheap supporters to use would be Shauna and Professor Sycamore (these can also replace Tierno).

If you can afford to add more money to the deck, the first things I'd recommend you getting would be Delphox, Rare Candies, and Skyla. Hope this gives you some ideas.

I'm quite impressed! Looks like you made a really good deck with your resources! I would recommend replacing 2-4 energies with a Good supporter when you have the chance, like Sycamore or Colress!

Without thinking on a budget, what should I get? Lol. I'll definitely make these changes. They seem legit to me
