Ive finally hit the mark with this ZoroLock idea, Strat below.

Strategy: Use Zoroark GX to hit for big numbers with Choice Band occasionally getting a boost from Kukui, and use Xurkitree GX to negate special energy attackers while you set up more attackers such as more Zoroark (and) use Rumbling Wires to put pressure on the opponent while keeping them locked up. Latios is there to keep Buzzwole at bay keep damage spreading to where need be. Kartana is there for Blade GX to set even footing when needed, and Sudowoodo there to limit damage output from Zoroark GX.

Advice appreciated!
Thanks!

Bump, tested it it, here are its better matchups and terrible matchups and everything inbetween.

Good:
Buzzwole (Most variants, 50/50 BuzzRoc)
All Zoroark Variants (50/50 ZoroGarb)
A. Ninetails GX ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Lucario GX (Pretty much an auto-win, Lucario needed the Strong energy most of the time.)
Drampa Garb

Meh:
Quad Hoopa (Meh and Bad)
Glaceon GX
Ho Oh FireBox
Golisopod GX variants
Greninja BREAK

Bad:
Vikabulu
Greninja GX
Necrozmar
*Occasionally* Quad Hoopa

Are you sure you tested this? Lucario should auto-win vs you, they can OHKO you for 1 energy. BuzzRoc should roll you too- yes they use the Prism energy, but they can Lycanroc/Guzma your Zoro if they have the single energy on. Additionally, you have no way to OHKO baby buzz, so that should take four prizes. I don't know how you win that MU. Why are you testing against Greninja Break? It completely rotates out.

TL;DR: Seems like you built a post-rotation deck... and then tested against the current format...

Also, did the decks you tested against have current cards, or future cards???
