3 Dimension Valley

Energy: 9
7 Psychic Energy
2 Mystic Energy

Strategy:

Start the game with Chandelure ex distributing damage the right way so you can evolve zubats and try to kill your oponente weak pkms soon before their evolve.( For example try to kill asap phanpys,litleos... before they turn on donphans,pyroars...) I use 4 golbats because it is to try the most to use both golbat and crobat abilities. Megaphone to try to deal with garbodor and other tools ofc.Wobbuffet is to kill big fishes when spread dmg with chandelure and the bats isnt the best option and muscle band is here to do this alongside with wobb.

I dont know what ace spec to put tbh, and i want u guys help with this also, atm im running computer search.

And please try to maintain the deck focus when adding suggestions. Im thinking of adding +1 az and +1 fan club but want to hear u guys opinions :)
Inb4, thanks!
 
Like the idea but add more things to pick up the crobats like more super scoop up and scoop up cyclone
and do add the az the fan club as well. I hope this helps, and good luck with the deck
 
If its okay, I'd like to add my two cents.

Overall, I think this is a pretty decent build. I never even considered Chandelure-EX to begin with. The only thing I don't like with Chandelure-EX is that its a Psychic Energy and not Colorless Energy. Overall, it wouldn't be too bad to consider Gengar-EX. For one Colorless, you put 3 Damage Counters on one of you're opponent's Pokemon. I do understand the reasoning behind Chandelure, though. You can't argue with being able to spread those counters to whatever location you wish for. However, I think the energy lineup is a little off for my taste. You have a couple Pokemon with Retreat Costs (Wobbuffet and Chandelure-EX). So I would consider adding in two more Mystery Energy. Being able to not waste a Tool slot by using your Energy as essentially a Float Stone is very helpful to me. I also don't think you need that many Psychic Energy, especially if you put in two more Mystery Energy. I run a 4/4 on Psychic and Mystery Energies in my own Crobat Deck. (I also run the two Wobbuffet, but I run 1 Mewtwo-EX and 1 Gengar-EX). I would also consider a fourth Dimensional Valley as well. Stadium Wars are annoyingly a thing now, and being able to keep yourself with a Valley out means that, in your variant at least, that Zubat, Golbat, and Crobat can attack with 0 Energy, while Chandelure-EX and Wobbuffet only need 1 Energy (Unless you wished to used Chandelure-EX's second Attack). In my build, the Bats and Gengar attack with 0 Energy, Mewtwo can attack with X Ball for 1 Energy, or Psydrive with 2 Energy. Or I can have Gengar use Dark Corridor to retreat out for only 2 Energy as well. If you'd like, I can share with you the Decklist I use for my Crobat deck.

EDIT: Also, I am sorry for my long post. As I was typing, I didn't realize just how much I was typing. Then I sent it and realized I kinda got long-winded in my typing.

yea he's def right! take the computer search out and run the scoop up cyclone. I would run super scoop up over AZ, yes its not a guarantee, but if you do land the heads you can put Crobat, and all of the cards on it back into your hand, rahter than just the one.

If you run AZ over Super Scoop Up, your going to need 1 or 2 Sacred Ash to get the Zubat/Golbat back into the deck
 
Lol. I just built and playtested my version of this deck this past weekend.

I definitely run 2 AZ, as well as a PFC as suggested by some of the others here. I found both to be quite helpful. I also run Computer Search for now.

I do not run Muscle Bands at all since I primarily dropped damage counters throughout the game.

I also do not run Wobuffet since, IMO, it's ineffective and would need additional resources (e.g., Switch to move it from the Active position).

I do run a 2-2 Leafeon (PLF) line since "many" decks are G-Weak and/or "stockpile" energy on their board side.
 
Put Scoop Up Cyclone in. its worth it for the amount of crobat to be put in. Also splashing in 2 ditto can be really useful in there incase you cant get a zubat out.
 
When you playtest your deck any Yveltal EX deck, you'll find that 1-2 Manectric EXs will be quite helpful in that matchup. Otherwise, it's a near autoloss to that Poké that can easily 1HKO your Chandelure EXs.
