Deck Primer

This is a very odd deck. I'll start with deck tech reccomendations.
Raikou isn't necessary, but it's nice to always draw 1 extra card per turn. 
Leon is there just for hitting over mew vmax, but you could remove Leon, replace the radiant Greninja with a radiant Hawlucha and have two free cards for your liking.
You could take out one boss and add a switch, mareep, or dragonite v. The 3 boss's are there for consistency.
Edit * I forgot to mention that the raikou is in the deck purely to counter palkia

Results -
I brought this deck to locals a few times and did surprisingly well.
Game 1 - Mew Vmax - Won 
Game 2 - Arceus Duraladon - Won
Game 3 - Palkia Vstar - Lost
Game 4 - Turbo Darkrai - Won
Overall record 3-1.

This is a really solid deck that most people wont expect to go up against. The only real downside is that nothing is weak to dragon types, but the upside is dragons aren't weak to anything, so it's a fair trade (I guess).
