Counts aren't optimized but the concept is simple. You are Zoroark. You like to spam your trade ability and get lots of cards. But you don't like it when your opponent gets to do that, so you play Garbodor.
Garbodor doesn't like any of this ability usage nonsense though, so we need his buddy Klefki to convince him to stack the odds in our favor. Klefki discards itself at the end of the turn, so Garbodor will block abilities on your opponent's turn, but not your's. You have puzzles and stretchers galore to recycle Klefkis, and trade to help dig through your deck to find them.
I include Garb GRI as a solution to the fairly common Buzzwole matchup, since I can't use Mew-EX in this deck and I want to run a high Trubbish count anyways. If you're not afraid of bugs, you can cut those and the psychic energies for more consistency and maybe an Acerola or two.
Thoughts, suggestions, am I crazy for doing this?
