Gosh you guys, stop making up all these good decks! I've already got like 99 other matchups to worry about. Just. stop. thinking.
 
Pokemon:

4x Mew ex
4x Sableye (DX)
4x Eevee (CFF)
4x Vaporeon ex (DS)
2x Stantler
1x Dunsparce
1x Rayquaza ex
1x Celebi ex
2x Holon's Magneton

Trainers:

4x Mary's Request
4x T.V. Reporter
2x Fieldworker
3x PETM
3x Windstorm
4x Dual Ball
3x Great Ball

Energy:

4x Dark Energy
4x Multi Energy
4x Rainbow Energy
2x Dark Metal Energy

DISCLAIMER: sorry if the following seems gruff.

Let's see. The possibility of getting Sableye on T1 is 23% with this list. Mew EX is no longer the card it once was. Vaporeon EX is weak to Lightning. Nearly everything important is susceptible to Cursed Stone or Cessation Crystal.

You run no SSU at all for the many EX's. Only 3 Windstorm. You count on combinations like Vaporeon EX- Stantler to work, when my experience with Stantler is that you hardly ever get 2 energy down on it. I'm not sure who your main attacker is! You hurt yourself further with Rainbow energy.

Fieldworker helps your opponent after you just tried to limit him!

But who am I? I'm just a rodeo clown.

my list (and yes, I realize that i've made it less disruptive):

4 sableye dx

4 seedot
3 nuzleaf
2 shiftry ex skill hack
2 shiftry ex not skill hack
1 shiftry lm

1 absol ex

--- 17

4 mentor
4 petm
4 rare candy
2 copycat
2 island hermit (ok, so I like something weird)
4 windstorm
4 ssu
4 switch (to get away from Ariados, Stantler/ Skarmory, etc)

--- 28

4 dark
4 dark metal
4 multi (yep, multi works well)
3 magnetrode

--- 15

how funny I mad this last nigh with a 2-1-2 nidoqueen line but wheres your card draw dude? yo only have 4 draw which makes me:eek: :eek: :eek:
 
seems kinda of neat with the right tweeks.
But seems it would auto loss to Bannette or Arcanine varients (other turn 2 decks)????
 
Add something with foresight.

After dropping a deck to 3 or less cards in a late game situation, a foresight lock could put a 100% lock on the game.
 
Where is Colin at????
He should read these deck lists...as he made the deck.

I'm a little perturbed at the fact that I posted an original idea - an original deck - that I was saving for Regionals only to have someone say that someone else made the deck first. I don't particularly care whether or not people even like the deck, but to say that someone else made it is kind of silly... like a Ludicolo wearing a cowboy hat. Get it?

Anyways, thanks for everyone's help, especially for those who have included entirely different deck lists centered around DX Sableye. I've been impressed from the feedback received, and my only regret is that I didn't post a better list to begin with. :redface:

Here are some Pokeballs:

:pokeball: :pokeball: :pokeball: :pokeball:
 
Foresight is definately important.

When I made this deck about a year or so ago, Girafarig was included. You can see your opponents hand, using Foresight to control their draws can allow you to break the Supporter lock temporarily, giving you a turn to attack whatever they have. It was even more effective then due to the popularity of Jirachi. Absol HP could be a decent alternative now.
 
I like the Absol HP also, but if you're gonna Foresight, then when do make the transition from being centered around anti-Supporter disruption to being anti-Draw disruption. You can't have both Foresight AND Limitation working simultaneously.

Let's also analyze: if Sableye and Vaporeon EX are so great (and I've already mentioned some pitfall), then Sableye and Rocket's Admin ought to be conceivably nice also, yet we did not see a run on Sableye even in the normally-aggressive Rock-Lock. So, I submit that Sableye having been "passed over" last format may have been due to the wonder of LBS, RaiEggs, or Mew-Trick, but then we still have two of those decks in the format, and such LBS propitiations as Metanite, Megalix, MSN, and Flu (yee-haw...).

I think the Sableye Poke-Power is actually more important, serving Shiftry in a way that, I admit, I missed when I posted my "Peekaboo" deck. Limitation is nice, but a short-lived luxury.
