Aggron is the main hitter, which can do up to 140 damage. However, this is not an early-game attacker. Nevertheless, I put the most efficient of the Aron and Lairon to keep the deck going until Aggron can hit.

The other main Metallic hitters are the Magneton. The Neo one can shuffle Lightning Energy between Magnemite and Magneton, and the Aquapolis one can go at your opponent's strategy and attack all those of the same type as its opponent. Neo Magnemite can do a two-turn guaranteed Paralysis. LC Magnemite is tech for Aerodactyl, which allows a Pokémon to use attacks from its earlier Evolutions. Even if you don't have enough Energy or damage counters on Aggron, you can still dish out damage, or not get hurt with the right combination of Energy on Magneton evolved from an LC Magnemite. Jynx is to combat Fire.

Super Potion is the healing card, and Energy Stadium and Energy Charge can help you retrieve your cards (this is handy especially if you don't have Neo Magneton in play). Town Volunteers can shuffle Pokémon back into your deck, Copycat is the main draw engine, and Secret Mission works well with Neo Magneton.

Any comments, fixes, and/or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
 
O...K. Joking around again, Carrington? I can't tell if you're serious or not! Seriously, though, this deck looks like it'd be way too slow to be able to much of anything in Unlimited. However, since I don't know the text of the EX-set cards you're using, I can't be sure. Anyway, try going 4-1-3 plus two Breeders on your Stage 2 set. Use Gold Berry instead of Super Potion (no Energy discard. Instead of Jynx, use something like Qwilfish to combat Fire -- type advantage, and no need for a second Energy type. Drop the Energy Stadiums -- this deck does not need them. Also, bring the Town Volunteers down to 2. You'll need Computer Searches (and/or a Bill/Oracle combo), Item Finder, Energy Charge, and maybe a couple of Oaks. Instead of just 3 Mysterious Fossils, try 2 Mysterious Fossils and 2 Fossil Eggs. Overall, interesting idea -- I think -- but far from ready to play, IMO.
 
Ah, BigChuck Energy Charge and Power Charge do exactly the same thing. I agree with dkates on Qwilfish to combat fire. It has a flippy attack, but it is a colorless attack, and pretty effective.

No, j'sdkblastoise- Power Charge does not do EXACTLY the
same thing as Energy Charge. The diffrence is, that if you have
2 energy cards to retrieve in your discard pile, and You use
Power Charge, You must retrieve both of them. Playing Energy
Charge you have choice whether to take 1 of the energies, or
both of them.

About the deck- I agree with dkates- You should rather use
Breeders to evolve Aggron. However, if you prefere the Lairons,
use the 80 Hp version. Drop all 4 water energies, and add 4 Boost
Energies. May be useful for Aggrons and Lairons. Drop the Jynxes,
too- Qwlfishes or Woopers are much better. Replace MFs with Fossil
Eggs, and Energy Stadiums with Professor Oaks. Drop 1 TV and 1
Copycat, and add 2 Lighting Cubes, then.

Hope I've helped.
