Strategy: Start with either Houndoom or Absol. This will immediately start disrupting your opponent’s set-up either with fast KOs or hand disruption.

Any suggestions would be great. How does this compare with T2 Banette?
 
I built this with a 3-3 Claydol line and I dropped the Absol as, if you want to drop cards, Houndoom can do it and do damage at the same time.
Put in a couple of the electri squirrel to get rid of Cess.

I also maxed out on the energy to do the bonus damage:
4 DRE, 4 Multi, 4 special Dark 4 Fire and I think 4 Dark.
With so many Claydol, you don't need as many Trainers.
 
How does this compare with T2 Banette?
It looks like it could stand up, depending on who goes first. I'd honestly switch out your trainers for the fishing engine and maybe make your Claydol line 2-2 in that case.
 
The reason I added Absol was to have another basic and help cut down on mulligans. I see how adding more Claydols would do the same thing and be more helpful. I'm not a big fan of the Fishing Engine, but it maybe worth a try.

PokePop - I like the idea of adding the additional energy.

What about taking out the 2 Cessation Crystals and adding Buffer Pieces in stead?

Thanks everyone!
 
See, when I'm playing this, I don't care if they KO me or not. I have another one sitting on the bench ready to take them out in return. I'm discarding energy almost every turn and they never have time to build up
