No that helped a lot I'll try that today, though I want to use super rod so I think I'll try 3 skyla and one super rod what do you think about that? And I really don't like attacking with hydreigon unless I have to take out a terrakion or an opposing sigliyph :)

Attacking with Hydreigon is one of the reasons this deck is good. Hydreigon allows you to kill Pokémon with Eviolite if Darkrai has Night Speared it for 70. Hydreigon can also one shot a Blastoise, and kill Keldeo or Mewtwo after a Night Spear snipe.
 
I have a question: How important is it to have 3 sableye? I only run two and I seem fine, but I agree that it may help to improve my set-up. I'm not too sure what to go with.

I personally like 3. However, an argument can be made for 2. If you're extremely tight on space, cut some of your techs. If you still need space, you could go down to 2 sableye.
 
Yay, more testing...

Go all blend. I tested prism and it wasn't worth it. You're very unlikely to get the necessary energy for Keldeo to OHKO a Landorus. I'd rather just 2HKO it with Darkrai/Hydreigon.
 
i like the build but try adding moltres NXD to have a chance to fight cobalion kingkang but if you doing that i think i need more speacl energy
 
Victini with V-create is the most popular tech vs Cobalion right now. I've considered trying Reshiram myself...

Buuuut Hydregion can handle Cobalion EX in a pinch as well, but only early game since otherwise Cobalion will use Shift Gear and max potion.
 
Techs are great and necessary but too many will hurt the consistency of your deck. Your probably already know that but I'm just giving a friendly reminder. Sometimes its best to have techs for some situations, and then be able to have certain strategic play styles for other situations. If you know what I mean
 
Against cobalion, it will more or less be like the mirror. I will be able to apply pressure with hydreigon and what is nice is that they do not run a sableye to retrieve their max potions. Basically, whoever sets up first will win. Victini may help, but I really don't want to hurt my consistency. Let's just see how popular this deck becomes first.

Ok I have a question could ditto BCR work for hydreigon that way it eliminates the rare candy for other cards towards consistency? I just a thought
