Gengar/Giratina Deck

Hello, I just got back into Pokemon tcg a few weeks ago and have no idea what decks are the best in the format. This is my first deck and would greatly appreciate tips/advice/opinions on it.

Pokémon (20):
3x Gastly 36/99 PA
1x Gastly 62/100 SF
2x Haunter 50/130 DP
1X Haunter 42/99 PA
1X Haunter 41/99
3x Gengar 18/100 SF
1x Gengar Lv X 97/99 PA
1x Giratina 10/127 Pl
1x Giratina 4/146 LA
1x Giratina Lv X DP38
2x Misdreavus 91/130 DP
2x Mismagius 10/130 DP
1x Spiritomb 32/99 PA


Trainers (24):

2x Lucky Egg
1x Cynthia’s Feelings
2x Pokémon Collector
4x Fisherman
2x Professor Oak’s Visit
2x Professor Elm’s Training Method
1x Premier Ball
1x Luxury Ball
1x Arron’s Collection
1x Volkner’s Philosophy
2x Expert Belts
1x Pokémon Communication
1x Bill
1x Bebe’s Search
1x Double Full Heal
1x Department Store Girl

Energies (16):
14 Psychic Energies

Strategy
Try to get Giratina lv x out as early as possible to deal out some initial spread and clean up with Gengar Lv X. Not much strategy I know, but thats why I have come here!

Thanks in advance

Take out the Mismagius, bill and double full heal for a 2-2-2 Togekiss GE line. Helps SOOOO much wiht energy acceleration.

Sounds like a good idea, don't have the cards though but I'll definitely consider it

I think you should run 4 Ghastly, 2 Haunter, and some Rare Candies to help with Speed. Your Ghastly should all be SF, since Pitch Dark can be so annoying on the first turn. Haunter SF does a consistent 1 for 30. And Rare Candies help with getting out Gengar faster.

Your Giratina line probably should use the Let Loose Giratina, since that helps with disruption and bench damage. Don't use the LA one- the Let Loose Giratina, the Broken-Space Blow Giratina, and the 3-Attack Giratina are all better.

Some draw power in the form of Claydol would be a really good idea, and Uxie LA might not hurt to put in for speed and consistency.
