Strategy:
I'm Just now getting into the format so i am wondering what the standard is for this deck. This is my attempt and building a good version. let me know what you think and cards marked with a " * " have an explanation as to why, below this.

* explanations:
Jirachi EX - good for that instant supporter,. especially early

Zekrom NXD - I think it will be good against safeguard pokemon, and being one prize could be helpful against yveltal EX

Ghetsis - so with the addition of VS Seeker and Flare Tools, i think the meta game could be very item heavy. This could be worth it so im going to try it

Enhanced Hammer - with DCE and Strong energies abundant, dont think this can hurt

Escape Rope - with the rise of Donphan decks, i thought instead of having 2 switches, to replace one with an escape rope to help get rid of the safeguard pokemon
 
I don't see what Manectric or M-Manectric does in this deck. I think they just clunk this deck up too much. If you're playing them to get around Pyroar, G-Booster does the same thing, and takes up less space, and it faster. If you want to try a unique deck on Virizion/Genesect, try adding in a fourth plasma energy, and add in 3-4 Plasma Badges and 3-4 Colress Machine. This lets you be able to get off T1 Emerald Slashes and T2 Megalo Cannon/ G-Booster. Sure Silver Mirror will wall you, but I honestly don't think a single deck plays that card anymore, and you can startling megaphone it off anyways. Another problem would be you can't attack Muscle Bands, but that's something you need to choose - speed or damage output. In the end, T1 Emerald Slash + Megalo Cannon/G-Booster = 50+ 100/200 = 150/250. This is compared to T2 Emerald Slash w/ Muscle Band for 70.
