Pokemon Half-Deck Challenge?

There's a half-deck challenge of the sorts going on at my league later on this week.
First prize is a booster box.
Any idea on what I should play?
SP is NOT an option.
Only 30 cards, at a max 2 copies of each card, no Stage 2's, no Lv. X's that evolve from Stage 2's.

I was thinking a Mightyena type of donk deck.
Sample list:

2 -2 Mightyena PL
2 Crobat G
2 Skuntank G
2 Uxie
1 Honchkrow G
1 Unown Q
Total: 12

2 Collector
2 Bebe
2 SSU
2 BTS
1 Luxury Ball
1 Twins
2 Belt
2 Poke Turn
Total: 13
Total cards thus far: 26

2 Sp. Dark
2 Dark
Total: 4
Total so far: 30

Basic strategy, pray to get the T1 Mightyena, use Skuntank G to Poison Structure, and Desperate Attack for 80-100/turn.

Any thoughts?

You will definitely need more stadiums
Victory Medal if you own any would be amazing
Can you run 4 Special Darks? Or only 2?

By saying max 2 copies of a given card, they mean anything but basic Energy, so yes, I would presume only two Special Dark.

Agreed with Kayle, you'll have problems getting Poison Structure off right now - you need something to pull up those Stadiums. Thankfully, we have a card that basically sets you up, in the form of Honchkrow G. It uses an attack to set up, but it's searchable and gets you out of no-stadium starts, getting you the stadium and a poke turn. Since that also makes your Crobats more reliable, I would say -1 Crobat G, +1 Honchkrow G.
