Super fast and easy to play! 

Optimized list of Gouging Fire expanded, Not a crazily good archetype, but is still really solid. Use Volcanion EX, one of the only EXs left that are still playable (in a meta of exs, EXs, despite being in capital letters, are typically worse) to turn basic fire energy into fire type electropowers. Only one volcanion buff and most Meta decks fall. Use delphox to deal with single prizers. You may say 10 fire energy is too less for such a dependent deck, but fire

Optimized list of Gouging Fire expanded, Not a crazily good archetype, but is still really solid. Use Volcanion EX, one of the only EXs left that are still playable (in a meta of exs, EXs, despite being in capital letters, are typically worse) to turn basic fire energy into fire type electropowers. Only one volcanion buff and most Meta decks fall. Use delphox to deal with single prizers. You may say 10 fire energy is too less for such a dependent deck, but fire crystal covers it all. 

Edit: Necrozma GX is actually a great addition. With Gouging Fire's 290 HP with Booster, the opponent isn't guarenteed to OHKO, so Necrozma with a stone can maintain Gouging Fire's consistent strikes.

If you don't think the deck is optimized yet and have suggestions, please leave a comment. Enjoy.

Giovanni's Exile (Hidden Fates)   will prevent crobat, dedenne, and Tapu Lele from getting bossed, especially with ADP in expanded

Iplaylostbox Thx for the advice you surely make a fair point, however, there's only three reasons for exile that make it pull its own weight as a spot in an expanded deck:

 

- You are severely pressed for bench space and for some reason you can't run sky field.

- You have core abilities (dedenne/lele/etc. don't count) that can be activated if either discarded or put back in play.

- You are running super consistent single prizers that have extra turns for supporters since only when running single prizers is when opponents would most often gust one of the cards you mentioned.

 

This deck doesn't qualify any of the three criteria, but don't get me wrong, it certainly isn't useless, but its just not useful enough to replace any other card in the deck. (the only reason opponent would gust consistency benches in this deck is if their main attack deals exactly between 180-220, since they cannot OHKO Fire) 

Also ADP is not a problem. The turn ADP uses creation is the turn you take 3 prizes, instantly having the upper hand in the prize trade. since 2 turns is more than enough to charge a fire with one volcanion buff.

Not necessarily a question for this deck, because the +60 hp from boost capsule seems pretty strong here, but is there a reason I don't see a lot of wishful batons in decks that are similar to these with a 3-energy attacker? I feel like there are decks that rely on a welder every turn and batons would free up a turn or two for some other supporter.

DQ11 Fan Fire Crystal is generally easier to use and doesn't overlap with Baton!
