Max belt is a the best ace spec as it buffs Dipplin's attack by +100 instead of +50 because of it's attack twice mechanic. Same thing for Kieran, giving you +60 attack for the turn. I run 3 but running 2 is fine. Hyper aroma is also a good choice to get your Thwackeys and Dipplins into play. Neutralization Zone isn't good for this deck because you need festival grounds in play to get the full potential of the deck. Netralization Zone often gets discarded pretty quickly. You also 100% percent need to be running 4 poffins and at least 3 nest balls.

I originally use that setup (Max Belt) and yes it is useful. However, most of the time, it is useless to me since I can just 2 shot most of them anyway. I won several games against the Loyal 3, Iron Thorns, and other full Ex/V deck attackers through the Neut Zone card. Yes, Neut Zone is one-time but to properly use it you have to time it right (wait until they used 1/2 stadium, let them use Lost Vacuum on Festival Grounds, etc.). Most of the time, if the enemy has no counter against Neut Zone, they'll concede so you don't even need Festival Grounds to attack.

Last night game against Regidrago VStar also works wonder because all their non-rule Pokemon are in Discard and they concede shortly after. It is also useful to be used as delay tool like if you brick your hand or need a few turn to setup your bench again. Thank you for the input though, appreciate it.

Edit: I am considering swapping Lana's Aid with Kieran, since I barely use that Supporter. Nest Ball is no good though, you already have Poffin to take them in bench. Afterwards just use Thwackeys to get more pokes (or another Poffin).
