I'm having many questions on strategy after building this deck on Limitless. I'll have the deck list and my strategy here after the note below, then I'll ask you.

Note: The expansion names will be abbreviated below:

  • MEG — Mega Evolution
  • DRI — Destined Rivals
  • PFL — Phantasmal Flames
  • MEE — Mega Evolution Series: Basic Energy
  • WHT — White Flare
  • TEF — Temporal Forces
  • PRE — Prismatic Evolutions
  • TWM — Twilight Masquerade
  • JTG — Journey Together

====================

Pokémon (26 total — too many?)

  • 3 x Chikorita (MEG #8)
  • 2 x Bayleef (MEG #9)
  • 2 x Meganium (MEG #10) — doubles the amount of grass energy attached to my Pokémon
  • 2 x Shuckle (MEG #11) — heals some damage from 1 of my Pokémon with a grass energy attached
  • 2 x Bramblin (TEF #20)
  • 2 x Brambleghast (TEF #21) — the more prize cards my opponent took, the more HP it has; the more energy it has, the more damage it can do
  • 3 x Applin (DRI #16)
  • 2 x Dipplin (DRI #17)
  • 2 x Hydrapple ex (PRE #11) — can attach energy to and heal damage from 1 of my Pokémon; the more energy which all of my Pokémon have, the more damage it can do
  • 2 x Genesect (PFL #8) — the more energy it has, the more damage it can do to an opposing Pokémon
  • 2 x Petilil (JTG #6)
  • 2 x Lilligant (JTG #7) — boosts damage done from my grass Pokémon

Trainer (18 total)

  • 2 x Sacred Ash (DRI #168) — used if I need to restore my Pokémon in a later time (i.e. when I have a Dawn card and I need more Pokémon), and refill my deck
  • 2 x Energy Recycler (DRI #164) — used if need to refill my deck with energy, as the below cards (Dawn, Buddy-Buddy Poffin, etc.) "consume" a lot of cards in my deck
  • 2 x Dawn (PFL #87) — used if I need to find my Pokémon from my deck quickly, but "consumes" a lot of cards
  • 2 x Switch (MEG #130)
  • 2 x Lillie's Determination (MEG #119) — used to refresh my hand, "consumes" a lot of cards
  • 2 x Energy Retrieval (WHT #82)
  • 2 x Boss's Orders (Ghetsis) (MEG #114)
  • 2 x Jamming Tower (TWM #153) — used to disable all effects of opponent's Pokémon Tools, as this deck has none
  • 2 x Buddy-Buddy Poffin (PRE #101)

Energy (16 total)

  • Basic Grass Energy (MEE #1)

====================

Now I have some questions about improving this deck:

  • Should I use any Ace Spec cards? (It shouldn't be a tool)
  • Should I use any Tera Pokémon?
  • Should I use any regulation G cards?
  • Do you think that I need more Trainers or Energy?

I'm looking forward to hearing your feedback!
