My area is over ran with Zekrom/Eels. So I decided to counter in the most fun way I can think of. Cubone.

Pokemon (11)
1 Rotom
2 Victini (Victory Star)
4-4 Marowak

T/S/S (37)
1 Pokemon Center
1 Switch
1 SuperRod
2 Twins
2 PlusPower
2 Level Ball
4 Pokemon Catcher
4 Pokemon Collector
4 Revive
4 Eviolite
4 Sage's Training
4 Profess Juniper
4 Junk Arm

Energy (12)
4 Doube Colorless Energy
8 Fighting Energy

Goal of the deck is simple, get the Marowaks into the discard asap. Level Balls help get marowaks into my hand so I can junk arm or juniper them.

any suggestions help. It's a fun deck, but I want it to be as playable as possible.
 
I dont know if you need 4 Collector for this deck. I think you should max the Level Balls and turn the Collectors into Dual Balls or more draw supporters. Level Ball + Junk Arm should be enough search to combo Marowak discards.

Maybe an Alph Lithograph?

4 Revive and a Super Rod seems a little excessive too. Maybe cut it down to 2 Revives.

Some Defenders might be good too.
 
I was going to run a Cubone deck for a while until Terrakion came out. It has a fairly good matchup against CMT actually. You would just pick off the easy prizes by killing Celebi with Marowak and kill one or 2 Mewtwo with Weezing. It also kills Zekrom if you play it fast enough.
 
Ha, I've been playtesting this. It's really cool. Drop the Collectors and PP for Potions and more Level Ball.
 
Potions are important in this deck as they are the equivalent of a max potion (because you can only ever have 3 damage counters on you without being KOd) without the energy discard.

The 4 collector seems a bit excessive, especially since level ball does all your searching needs, all of them.
Also maybe drop the revives to 2
 
I played this deck with 2 Aipom with Tail Code to stall, and 2 Ambipom. I used Ambipom's attack to discard my Marowak "for free" and it was a nice way to do a quick 60 damage with one DCE. I also ran 4 DCE as both Cubone and Ambipom benefit from it, but there IS an awful amount of Lost Remover being played...

Just a thought!
