I've been playing Dark Slowking ever since TRR came out, it's my main deck and I have never gave up on it. I am still working on perfecting my list. It's close to done but nothing is ever perfect. =p Dark Slowking is better than Primeape IMO. Primeape is less consistant because it dumps too much and you can never draw that fast. Primeape dumps 3 trainers for 90, while Dark Slowking dumps 2 for 80. Dark Slowking has more HP, has a disruptive power, an uncommon weakness, and evolves from Slowpoke which can Amnesia. Primeape doesn't have a cap on it's amount of damage it can do, but that is the only plus to it.
I say go with:
x4 Steven's
x4 TVR
x2 Celio's
x3 Rocket's Ball
x4 Swoop, Charm, Shard, Buffer Piece (16 in total)
x2 Retriever
I don't personally like Fossils either, since you Mulligan too much but it works too. You don't need Great Balls, buffing up your draw engine is a better idea than cards that will get you one basic. Goodluck to you on the deck, the only problem I have ever had with it is Slowking's Low HP, but properly placed buffer pieces help that out sometimes. Just remember once you attach something you need to use it to get rid of it. Buffer piece is the only dangerous one in the deck because if you attach it and need a chamr/shard than you can't do it. Think things out first. :thumb:
