i beleive that charizard * can be powered up before empoleon snipes it, i say that because rayquaaza ex can't quite snipe it fast enough, so that kills an empoleon, lucario is blow for blow really, therefore it comes down to who's the better player or who get's backup faster,
i'm thinking about throwing in a blissey, simply because low hp is the number 1 and pretty much only problem this deck has, as for low damage output, all the attacks have effects that make them good, plus the very playable charizard *
the reason blissey fits in well is that i can send it out for low energy cost and it is a pokemon, unlike any in my deck ,that can deliver two attacks, without dying
the deck actually works, it has a hard time against decks with high attacks, the high hp isn't a problem to this deck now that charizard has proved to be so useful
i'm just assuming that you didn't play with charizard, since that is the card that deals with the problem you listed, but it's a key part of the deck , without it, this deck IS just another rogue deck, i wouldn't play umby if that is what you played because i see the effectiveness of that card being similar to the effectiveness of ariados-masquerain, rogue, but if you did play charizard then i would have to say that you just didn't time it right, if you built that empoleon lucario deck, i'm sure you know exactly when it is safe to play something,
another thing is that since the attacks have low energy cost, you will have a chance to attack with one of the main attackers, that doesn't have aqua shower damage, depending on game progress they might not be able to ohko with empoleon especially with DRE attached, if dre is attached ( i played crystal beach in mine so no dre) you would tail influence for 30-60 and try to discard, or use er2
