im gonna tell u now....theyre going to hate on Oricorio hard. I put him in my deck too, and i had like 4 people telling me to drop em
 
I like the oricorio if it's the fire one, and I like the idea of Flareon in Volc but here's some suggestions:

I don't like the random receiver in this deck, I know you said you only have one lele but if you get it replace Random Receiver as fast as possible. If you don't get the lele soon than replace random receiver with thicker supporter lines. (probably add extra Guzma)

I would also replace the Shauna with an N or a Cynthia when it comes out in the new set.

Also maybe think of playing a hohoh (i have no clue how to spell it) GX because of the turn one kiawe can put a lot of pressure on your opponent.


Great list.
there are not many changes I would make but have fun playing this deck and good luck building your list. :)
 
So flareon hit 110 for 3 energy, turtanator hits 160 for the same cost. Sure you have to discard 2 fire but the extra damage is worth it.

its not just that turtonator discards energy that I'm running flareon the fact that it can take max elixir energy from its ability as well in addition to just being another option to go into

I agree with most of these changes just that the fact that ho-oh gx has to wait inbetween turns to do its big attack sure you could run a ranger and its damage output can oneshot basic exs and gxs without choice band but is that worth it, as well as being a different weakness to hit but I already run the stadium
 
replace the staryu from bkpt and put the one from breakthrough


it:

  • has more hp
  • can do damage for colorless
  • and a few other stuff
