Darkrai/Weavile

My son pulled a Darkrai LvX at a release event and would really like to use him. We put this combo together. It’s fun to play and he likes it but…is there anything we could do to improve the chances against Galade?

Pokemon (16)
2 Absol (SW 21)
3 Darkrai (GE 4)
1 Darkrai LV X
4 Pachirisu (GE 5)
2 Sableye (CG 10)
2 Sneasel (DP 2)
2 Weavile (SW 40)

Supporter (16)
4 Celio
4 POV
4 Wager
4 Roseanne

Trainer (10)
3 Quick Ball
4 Night Maint
1 TSD
2 Windstorm

Stadium (2)
2 Crystal Beach

Energy (16)
4 Special Dark
12 Dark Energy

Strategy: Start with Pachirisu (Sneasel 2nd choice and Absol 3rd). Load bench with Darkrai, Darkai and Sneasel. T2 Evolve to Weavile, retreat Pachirisu use Shadow Charge to power up one of the Darkrai. T3 move Darkai to the active and start Sleep Hole (looking for LVX of course). Continue and follow with second Darkrai. Recycle Darkrai and Darkrai LVX using Night Maintenance and TSD. If needed reuse Weavile to power up additional Darkrai. Hold bake Absol and hit for 40-50 and stall for another turn to power up. Wind storm is in to protect against Unkown G’s Guard.

Everything falls a part once Galade shows up. Weak to fighting, Darkrai LvX is OHKOed by Psychic Blade even if there are no cards to flip. Sableye provides some help to stall Gallade. But Galade retreats and who ever comes up Galade or Gardevoir OHKOs Sableye. Crystal Beach helps slow GG re-powering.
