I REALLY like Mimikyu, lol

A deck that's a little more streamlined than my last using Pidgeot ex to fix the fact that, if your opponent knows what they're doing, it becomes pretty difficult to chain together Acerolas even with a Bibarel engine. As before, Mimikyu is useful against decks with lots of little guys like Lost Box while Arceus deals with decks that have more bulky Pokemon like Lugia or ElectricBox (which Mimikyu can finish off, if you don't get the KO).

Drapion and Squawkabilly do their respective things, Hawlucha softens up popular 70 HP mons like Comfey and Ralts for Mimikyu to take two prize turns, and I've been on the fence about Gardevoir for a while but it can prevent your Arceus from being OHKO'd by strong Vs like Giratina VSTAR allowing you to Volo and deny prizes.

Currently testing Venusaur V for a better matchup against Charizard, which can be a pain because it hits Mimikyu for weakness. Other options are Leafeon V (Crown Zenith)  and Virizion V (SWSH Black Star Promos) which don't come with the drawback of self damage, but Venusaur's ability to live a hit from Choice Belt Zard makes it more appealing in my opinion. You know Charizard will always have every card it needs in its hand, even if it isn't that great of a deck.

As always, any input is appreciated :]

I am also a huge fan of mimikyu and after playing the Claydoll version I will say without a doubt I love both of these decks. I might try playing this at a league cup this weekend. It's really that much fun.

I swapped out the gardevoir for alakazam, 1 nest ball, 1 ultra ball and 1 aroma for 1 jet and 2 v guards. Might also put in shaymin v instead of the ven.
