Captivate the world, make them knell at your feet with the power of Dark Pulse. Use Hydregion and Galarian Moltres V to get as many energies onto the field, then move them around with Weavile GX. Get as much pokemon on the field to delegate energies with Eternatus Eternamax and Weavile GX. Then coldly take prize by prize with Greninja and Zorarak GX, using Dark Pulse.

An updated version of How The Darkness Stole The World. Using Greninja and Zorarak GX as a better card, as it being a basic and easily gotten through the use of nest ball. Darkrai EX has been taken out from it not being in expanded on TCG Live anymore, so Hiding Darkness Energy and Dark City have replaced it. Not the best replacement, but the most practical use of the situation.

This deck needs Crobat V for draw, as this deck is sorely lacking it. Another neat tech is Kecleon (Chilling Reign), as when used with Weavile, it can effectively turn Eternatus' ability on and off at will, letting you discard liabilities on your bench. You can also combine this with Darkrai-GX (Burning Shadows) to infinitely recover discarded darkness energies. With doing so, you can replace Hydreigon if you want, but you may want to keep it as a fail safe. Great deck!

@CountryGibbon798 thanks for the suggestion. In testing before I did notice I was missing the draw feature and often ended up waiting for the right card to appear. Kecleon will make for an interesting addition with the use of it being a lever.

DAQUEERSCARLIV When replying to me, please make sure my name turns blue (like how it is for your name here)! Otherwise it doesn't notify me! 

In second viewing, I do think that this deck has too many Pokémon in it, and you can shave off a few, like one Sneasel (Weavile can be directly summoned with Greninja/Zoroark's GX attack), and you can sacrifice the Hydreigon line/Rare Candy if you feel like going all in with the more convoluted Darkrai/Weavile/Etrnatus core. However, I can understand not wanting to, because it's more complicated as I said. You could bring it down to a 1-1, though.

 

Next, I do think that Lady isn't the best search card, as Earthen Vessel just works more efficiently, and can discard to get things going easier like Darkrai GX. Also, you can add TM: Evolution to get what you need in play faster, like Eternatus VMAX or Weavile GX. You can also do this with the Hydreigon line, provided that you feel like adding Zweilous.

 

Overall, I still like this deck a lot, and only smaller tweaks are needed at this point.
