Strategy:
This is quite much like old Empoleon/Palkia X/Mantine, but I wanted Claydol in as Palkia X build sometimes runs out of gas without it. So I took in Lumineon, alternative Guster. Though it only works for bigger pokémon, having 3 Warps will help you to get the small fries out too.

This has some nice strategies with Lumineon (Gust in a big hitter, place Scramble to Lumineon, Wager, attack and you have Scramble in your hand for next turn Empoleon), but it's mainly for dragging a slow one out and whacking the bench with Empo. 3 Warps as you can't retreat more than once per turn... and if your opponent brings out something weak, well, you don't have to use Lumineon's power.
 
IHMO the good ol' Palkia Lv. X, Mantine and Empoleon is far better than that... Sori vaa ;) Why Suicune?
