Phantom Transformation Zoroark is used to get a stage 1 mon out of the discard pile, which the sleeper in this deck is Crawdaunt (which can be easily added to the discard pile with Liepard's Trade ability, Ultra Ball, or other methods).  Powered up with Toxtricity, it can swing for 130 with a single energy.  Of course the more powerful move is Ciphermaniac's Codebreaking/Grimsley's Move/Tyranitar, but the Stage 1s are the stars of the show here.
