I threw it together, the list isn't the best but I'd like input on how to make it better.

4 Eevee
4 Flareon (Plasma)
4 Yamask
3 Cofagrigus (Plasma)
4 Audino
2 Colress Machine
1 Gold Potion
4 Hypnotoxic Laser
2 Virbank Gym
3 Pokemon Catcher
1 Super Rod
2 Team Plasma Ball
2 Ultra Ball
2 Bianca
1 Colress
2 Ghetsis
4 N
4 Juniper
4 Fire Energy
4 Double Colorless Energy
3 Plasma Energy

The strategy is to get pokemon in the discard via Audino and Cofagrigus. Cofagrigus knocks itself out and puts 3 damage on your opponent's board however you want. Flareon does 20 + 10 for each pokemon in your discard pile. Any and all help would be appreciated. (I don't plan on playing this in any big tournaments or anything, just something to take to league for fun, I'd like to improve it though)
 
Why Gold Potion in a deck that's likely to get OHKO'd anyway, when you could use Dowsing Machine or Computer Search that'd discard more cards?

I really like Cofagrigus, but I think more conventional discard (such as comp search, or more ultra ball) would do you good as well. Also might personally swap a Ghetsis for a third Bianca, but up to you.

I assume Exeggcute doesn't appeal to you?
 
I thought about Exeggcute, but I think you would want to keep the pokemon in the discard for more damage. I'll try dropping a Ghetsis for a Bianca though.

If the Ultra Balls were maxed at 4, then exeggcute becomes needed. You could get one or both back while being able to keep the pokemon in the discard. Also helps when you don't have pokemon in your hand or dont want to discard valuable resources.
 
I'd like to see some other eevelutions even if you never intend on attacking with them. You can gather 3 per turn with Signs of Evolution and then use Ultra Balls and Junipers to discard them. If you do decide to add a few other colors of energy, Ho-oh could be a fun addition as a late game attacker. I dont like cofagrigus, I think he would be better if you played Shaymin EX or Lucario(but I dont suggest you play them either). You probably don't need the plasma energies. Exeggcute seems good, but I'd be afraid of starting with it.
 
Life Dew is way better than Gold Potion. Especially since you can attach it to Cofagrigus and lose zero prizes with its Ability.

Also Ditto makes it so you send 1 more Pokemon to the discard when you K.O. Cofagrigus (Ditto + Yamask + Cofagrigus).

Agreed, Ditto is perfect for this. It also helps, if your running more than 2 as a starter so you reduce the chances of starting with exeggcute (if it's played in the deck).
