An interesting budget list that's only overshadowed by the variety of decks available (reminds me of the old Leafeon Vmax lists that played jank like Muk and Galar Mine to get max damage). The damage it can produce is reasonable for a single prizer and can create hard game states for your opponent to play through.

I can see what the deck is doing and all, but why Irida (Astral Radiance) your main supporter only does 1 of its 2 things consistently feels a bit underwhelming to me.

like put some Technical Machine: Evolution (Paradox Rift) in there and run Arven (Scarlet & Violet) instead and suddenly its a lot better.

could probably think about other useful supporters but arven seems like the obvious improvement obviously with adjustments because without tools arven is just like irida.

Thanks for the input grandmagusta5258 I forgot to add the water Pokemon targets (I swapped them for the rabsca line). I was playing the Irida variant of Gardevoir and i really liked having to set up my stage 1 lines without giving up my turn. Freeing up my turn to potentially attack is really good. With this deck, it's even better since you are likely going to lead ariados and are able to attack with only a single energy cost. Irida also gives you a nice toolbox of tech Pokemon to use. Manaphy for bench guard, Iron bundle for disruption, and greninja draws. getting that early damage is really crucial for this deck and Hper aroma is such aboost to decks like these, because they allow you to remain aggressive without wasting a turn to set up. Also added gardenias to attack with spidops more easily.
