I'll give you this: This deck is a hundred times better than your other "competitive" decks! You know it's good when I don't need to launch into a tangent about the general principles of deckbuilding lol. I'm not 100% sure about how competitive this deck really is, but I'll give it the benefit of the doubt because I remember this strategy very fondly from when I saw a YT video about it a long while back.
Now, there are still a couple things that need changing:
- Lisia can go, because what you're searching for isn't really impactful enough, especially since one of your two viable options is also a Supporter that can't be played that turn anyways and the Ditto can be retrieved through Poffin. If you need something for generic card searchm try Teammates.
- Because the deck doesn't need that many Energy cards to function, N's Resolve is a high risk, low reward card. I see the intent about how you could potentially mill Exeggcutes which technically help you, but for a deck that RELIES on Prism Star cards to work at its maximum capacity, you don't want somethnig that could banish those permanently when you don't want to.
- On that topic, for an optimal Egg Splat attack, you can only have up to 3 Exeggutors out in total. Of course, you don't need to preserve all 4 eggs, but this deck could use some fresh "bait." What I mean is that you could include Fezandipiti ex and Oricorio-GX to double as some extra draw support, as well as give your opponent to target a tantalizing double-prizer if they get too greedy and try to accelerate the game. That way you can expect your limited Exeggutors you got without evolving to gfo a lot further!
- Choice Belt over Choice Band. It's that simple. You'll be OHKO'ing EX's and GX's with your default damage output of 180-240 damage, so there's no need to increase it further for Pokemon that have been HP-crept into obscurity (with the exception of Tag Teams which I can partially get, but they're less common nowadays).
- Double Dragon Energy should be in this deck for sure, even if there's only 2 or 3. It'll get you out of a pinch when you need to get an attacking rolling right away. Guzma & Hala will get you it, alongside your Stadiums and Tools your deck runs.
- Since your deck uses Exeggcute, you have the rare opportunity to comfortably run Secret Box over Computer Search. While it loses you the ability to get Pokemon and Energy cards, the amount of overall Trainer tempo it yields is insane.
- Again, Guzma >>> Boss, even if Exeggutor's retreat cost is kind of intimidating. It's another switch option which can help if you find yourself stuck with Heavy Baton and not Float Stone.
But in the end, you did a great job!
CountyGibbon798 All done. Thanks for the positive feedback! I did learn some things about the deck via your comment.
-I feel like I should cut Heavy Baton, as I am now playing 3 Double Dragon Energies, and the Baton only transfers basic ones. And as you said, it will probably make Float Stones easier to get. -I don't think I need Energy Recycler any more, for pretty much the same reason(s) as mentioned before.
-Lastly, I realized I can play more Mysterious Treasures, as only now did I realize it can get rid of Exeggutes, and that's not a problem because of the ability. What do you think?
Looking better now. I'd just outright remove all of your Basic Energy synergy because you'll be using DDE now. I feel that no extra searching is necssary since two thirds of your attackers will be drawn from the deck outright, so it won't be necessary. I just uploaded my iteration of this archetype that uses EVS Zoroark to more consistently get your Exeggutors into play without the use of Exeggcute. Feel free to look at that one if need be.
