    4 Deino ( not sure what one to use yet)
    2 Zweilous ( again not sure which one would be best)
    2 Hydreigon ( dark trance)
    2 Hydreigon ( dark advocacy) from Phantom gate
    =18

Energy:

  • 8 Dark
    4 Rainbow energy
    1 Double Colorless
    =13

Strategy:
Attack with Yveltal EX, Darkrai EX, or yveltal. Use Hydreigon ( Dark Trance) to move dark energy around and use max poition to heal off pokemon. Hydreigon with Dark Advocacy to get energy back from the discard pile onto active pokemon. Use Keldeo EX to get out of Status conditions. I may consider droping the double colorless energy for more dark energy.

What do you all think? What would you all change?
 
RE: Yveltal EX/ Darkrai EX, Hydeigon

I'm very experienced with Yveltal/Hydreigon in past formats, so I'll try to give some advice (even if I think that making decklists for cards not even released in Japan is kinda dumb).

  • Drop 1-2 Darkness Energy, Psychic Energy, and 1-2 DCE. Add in 3-4 Rainbow Energy (You don't need so many energy in a deck that recycles them, but Rainbow Energy really ties this deck together better than DCE and psychic do). My NXD-On decklist ran just 7 Darkness and 4 Blend, and I hardly had energy trouble.
  • Replace Keldeo-EX with Virizion-EX. Preventing special conditions is worlds better than removing them after the fact. This is one of the reasons why Rainbow Energy are very important
  • Drop 1 Lysandre. you need the space, and this deck doesn't really need catcher effects more than once in a game. On the rare occasion that you think you do, save your Dowsing Machine.
  • Drop 1 Max Potion. In this format, you're not going to avoid enough OHKO's for 4 to be worth it. And in the few matchups that you would get to use 4, it's almost definitely overkill.
  • Drop 2 Energy Switch. Really?? In a Hydreigon deck?
  • Drop the "a" in "Startaling Megaphone"
  • Add in a 4th N. This deck falls behind a lot. N is amazing here.
  • Add in a 2 Muscle Bands, or perhaps a Muscle Band and a Silver Bangle (just to get OHKO's with Hydreigon, which is one of the main compelling reasons to play this over Aromatisse anyways)
  • Swap the "z" in "Dowzing Machine" with an "s"
  • Consider adding a Jirachi-EX, just for consistency.

That's all I can think of for now. This deck won't be that good, but it's fun to play, and will always have a special place in my heart.
