My attempt at using the Expedition Machamp. My first thought was to combo him with Alakazam/Damage Swap, to allow me to spread damage onto my bench, increasing the attack strength of Machamp. Then I noticed the Expedition Dugtrio's attack that does 10 to each benched Poke along with 30 base to their active. Diglett's attack isn't too bad for one energy either. Attack with Dugtrio while setiing up a benched Machamp. Dugtrio's resistance to Lightning will help with the increase in Lightning decks the new Expedition Water Pokes will cause. The deck might have trouble against Espeon, but would OHKO it with a flip. Murkrow could also help against Espeon and, along with Dugtrio's bench attack,would allow decent hunter capability. Muk would only shut off the Terraforming power, which, though nice, won't stop the deck from hitting hard. Here's the list thus far:

Terraforming MF
4 Exp. Machop
3 Exp. Machoke
3 Exp. Machamp (maybe run one Base/LC)
4 Exp. Diglett
3 Exp. Dugtrio
3 Cleffa
2 Murkrow
22 Pokemon

4 Gold Berry
3 Elm
3 Trader
2 Copycat (how about running several Team Rocket's Evil Deeds in a row and then using a CopyCat....get rid of what two cards you want, and then duplicate the huge hand)
2 Bill's Maintenance
3 Double Gust
3 Switch
2 Lucky Stadium
1 Time Capsule
23 Trainers

12 Fighting Energy
3 Dark Energy
15 Energy

This has not been playtested yet. Look at the list and suggest possible changes. Thanks in advance.

Well, I would definitely consider magnifier. I also must say you may have found one of the few decent uses for TRED (fun acronym).

Major Enimies:
Lt. Ledian
LC Gengar
LC Mewtwo
etc.

Still, an interesting deck. Tell us how it works out. Also, have you considered adapting this strategy to TMP? It's very similar to the N3 Graveler/Sabrina's Golduck combo (before they announced it would be Neo-on).

Houdin:
I am sorry that you and your fellow players from across the pond may not have the Expedition set for a while without grey-marketing them in. Truly a BAD decision made by Nintendo.
But...if you want to actually HELP the deck I posted (that's what this forum is for!), here's a little info that may help:

Machamp's Power-Terraforming-
During your turn before ya attack, you may look at the top 4 cards of your deck and rearrange them in any order.

Diglett's attack for a single fighting energy:
Flip three coins. Does 10damage X the number of heads.

Machamp's attack for 2 fighting two colorless:
Does 50 base damage. Flip a coin. If heads, add 10 damage for every one ofyour benched Pokemon that has damage on it.
(PLEASE YOSHI...I AM NOT QUOTING THESE CARDS VERBATIM...NO NEED TO CORRECT ME)

Dugtrio's attack for two fighting and one colorless:
Does 30 base damage and 10 to each player's benched Pokemon...yours AND your opponents.

CopyCat: A Supporter Trainer(only one supporter allowed to be used each turn) Shuffle your hand into your deck and draw a hand equal to your opponent's hand in number.

Bill's Maint.: A Supporter Trainer-Shuffle one card from your hand into your deck and draw three cards. Again, only ONE Supporter allowed to be played each player's turn.

That info should allow you to better see what I am trying to do here.
