Love your strategy of using snorlax to retrieve leftovers! 😍

Suggestions:

 

- More Honchkrow V, there's a chance it could get prized and two could also store more tools

- Less forest seal stone (2 maybe), you can only use it once, and you'd rather have actually useful tools instead.

 

Love to see people try new strategies!

Hope I helped! 🥰

I got back to the game after a year, this was a decklist I saw Trickygym play. I came back and it became obsolete with the rotation of Escape Rope, Level Ball and Battle VIP Pass, I tried to make it my own.
Honchkrow being prized is rare and not that big of a problem if it happens.
I happen to have updated the deck to go all-in on Arven, which solves this potential Honchkrow problem by being able to tutor Hisuian Heavy Ball.
4 Forest Seal Stone mean you can tutor anything at almost any moment, but maybe I could indeed play less now that I have a full playset of Arven (which definitely makes the deck more consistent). I looked at all the legal Tools but didn't really see anything interesting though.
Snorlax and Leftovers is a super cool interraction because it also pays for the Ultra Balls and allows me to run Earthen Vessel instead of the Energy Search meant for Arven.
I don't know any good search engine for cards (like scryfall is for MTG) and I'd like to find other cards that have a discard cost.

Yeah all that makes sense, you could also use secret box over prime catcher as it is a discard cost and can essentially search two tools due to default tool search and town store. Box is also just a really solid card in general.

My god Secret Box is indeed so much better, it can turn itself into at least 4 tools if need be. The deck is still pretty weak to Snorlax being dragged in the active zone, I lost multiple games like that even while being cautious. Prime Catcher used to help but now that it has been removed, I added a third Switch.
