My take on the new Arceus VSTAR with Boltund VMAX from the set Brilliant Stars. Replace the Ditto V and Ditto VMAX with Arceus V and VSTAR respectively. You can replace Cheryl with Cheren's Care from Brilliant Stars, however this is optional.

The ideal game goes as follows:

Turn 1 (going second): Either attach to Boltund V, get an Arceus V down, and Electrify onto the Arceus for a Trinity Nova next turn or attach to the Arceus V and try to dig for a turbo patch and discard an energy to try and get

Turn 1 (going second): Either attach to Boltund V, get an Arceus V down, and Electrify onto the Arceus for a Trinity Nova next turn or attach to the Arceus V and try to dig for a turbo patch and discard an energy to try and get a turn 1 Trinity Charge.

Turn 2: Attach manually to Arceus V and evolve it into a VSTAR. You might want to get a Mareep down as well. Trinity nova for 200 damage and accelerate 3 energy onto another Arceus V for some KO's next turn.

Turn 3: Switch into another Arceus if the active one is being two-shot. Definitely get some Flaafys set up. Trinity Nova but this time accelerate onto the Boltund V. You might want the VMAX for next turn.

Turn 4: If you can still manage an OHKO on the target, Cheryl or Cheren's care a wounded Arceus VSTAR and if you used Cheren, discard the energies in your hand to Flaaffy Dynamotor them back onto the Arceus. Bring Boltund V(MAX) into the active and attempt to take OHKO's on the target with Bolt Storm. You might even want to just switch + boss orders to KO a charged enemy Pokemon on the Bench.

Turn 5+: You can just sweep with Boltund or Arceus and clean up the KOs. Please note however, that VSTAR Pokemon only take 2 prizes when KO'd, so make sure to play your opponent into a possible 7 prize game.

And that's the decklist! I spent 30 minutes making this, so please give constructive criticism in the comments! Thanks for reading all the way through.
