This time I've chosen a sample Blaziken variant from the forum, mostly because there have been a number of blaze decks posted of late and I wanted to see what we could do with one of them. Perhaps our work here will help those others who also have a hankerin' to do something with Blaziken. Plus, it's always nice to help out a father-son tandem.
Here is Edmundo's initial post of his deck, Latiken:

Tks to all.
Pokemons = 21
3 Latias Ex DF <====main attacker
1 Latios Ex DF <===== second attacker/free retreat to main/ice barrier against Ex
1 Latios (dual aura) HP <====== Latiolock
1 Latias star DX <======= Big Ex killer
3 Torchic PK
2 Combusken EM
3 Blaziken PK <===== Energy acelleration
2 Skitty CG
2 Delcatty PK <======Draw acelleration
1 Holon Catsform
2 Holon Electrode
Trainers = 25
4 Transceivers
3 Mentors
2 Adventurers
1 Scientist
1 Farmer
3 Celios Network
3 Rare Candy
4 Windstorm
1 Switch
1 Warp point
1 Str Charm
1 Crystal Shard
Energys = 14
12 fire
2 Delta Rainbow
Strategy= Build a beched line of 2 blaziken/1 delcatty/1 latias ex/1 Latios Ex, and the main is other latias ex. Latios dual aura and latias star is a teck. Start = So versatily, if you start with latias Ex and 2 energys, use her power to t2 = 90, and continous setup your bench. If you start with o poor hand, begin with castform/mentor and delta draw. Badly Starter = skitty and latias star. Not even tested against the combos decks, but you can see some things - 1)Deck eats energys in start rush, 2) Psiq weakness to main/second attacker, in some matchups is terrible.
The Strategy is a build like metanite, but with a lot of speed in begin game (because latias Ex is not a big killer like metagrox but is more faster then metagrox, so you can do t2=90), take advantage of free retreat and energy acceleration for Latias Ex power. In middle game when you setup your bench, is easy to give 90 dmg in all turns, but problaly your oponent have a big pokes in game, so Latias Star begins to appers.
I just thinked to put 1 more latios Ex (if prized), 1 lass and 1 more catsform for 1 electrode, and something like holon legacy (after the begin - in middle game, you may dont use more the power of Latias Ex), but i dunnno what to change, some help of you guys will be apreciate. Tks to all.
