You dont need switch.
I play g dos and volkners is so bad in my list.
You dont need pont.
Only one maybe 2 seeker is needed.

I like smeargle with call energy in my g dos and also paly SSU

so, what you're saying is:

-2 switch
-2 volkner
-2 PONT
-1 seeker

+2 smeargle
+4 SSU
+1 call energy?

things you may want to take out:
2 bebe communication is better because it can be brught back with junk arm
3 seeker i fail to see how seeker can help when you have rescue energy fully healing G-dos by returning it to my hand=good Playing it back down that turn via BTS=awesome
2 PONT this does nothing really for you hand refresh can help
2 volknor junk arm is way better i'm not sure whether i need these or not
1 twin see PONT twin is great because I can impersonate it and get 2 free cards if i'm losing
2 pokemon rescue combee is better because it cant be sprayed or locked
2 switch 1 warp point and 2 warp energy is enough combos with seeker; switch-seeker-return g-dos to hand
2 bts your not running enough evos to be effective see seeker and switch

things you may want to add:
1 gyarados just in case some are prized 3 is enough with rescue energy
1 uxie x always good in stage 1 decks no have
1-1 luxray gl bring up your prey have but don't like
1 toxicroug g promo a good luxray counter no have and isn't cheap
1 combee see pokemon rescue
1 poketurn i don't know why you would only run 3 I only have 3 because I use junk arm to reuse the 3
2 communication see bebe
1 psychic goes with toxicrougg
2 dark and 2 special dark so sableye can attack no need imo
1 sp radar to search for luxray, toxicroug, or crobat doesn't work if i'm not running luxy
1 e-gain see psychic see sp radar

Agree, you have seeker in the deck which can return the combee back to your hand, to be re-used later and clear up bench space... It has more use now that you have seeker ...

I'll test some with the Bee
 
Personally i don't think you need the toxicroak promo.
Luxray has to have lucario GL + flash bite + trash bolt to ko your g-dos.
where you can then just revenge ko it next turn.

i believe Cynthia's Feelings is nice instead of PONT.
its great after they ko your g-dos and build up right back up.
but you need hand refresh if you have a bad start.

i would maybe go 2 WP and only 1 switch.
they can heal when you seeker to but you also bring up an easy person to ko for the prize.
 
Updated decklist after some testing

Added in LuxrayGLX, Cynthia's Feelings, SP Radar and Combee.
Changed around some of my lines.

i think - 1 expert belt
+ 1 pkm rescue/ combee. trainer lock is lethal to g-dos this format. be smart and play some recovery :)

So you took out a trainer due to the fear of a trainer lock, and told him to add in Pokemon Rescue? :lol:

I find that 3 Expert Belt is just enough for me to draw into them, and I think that only 1 Bee is necessary because I do run the 3 Recover Energys aswell

Hi PokeGym members! I attended the Triumphant prerelease today and scored by drawing Gengar Prime, Celebi Prime, AND top half of PDL. About a couple of hours ago I had the inspiriation to rebuild my Gyarados deck with some of the new cards. Here's what I came up with:

4-3 Gyarados SF
4 Sableye SF
1 Regice LA
1-1 Luxray GLX
1 Crobat G
2 Uxie LA
1 Azelf LA
1 Combee SF
1 Unown Q

4 Pokemon Collector
2 Bebe's Search
3 Seeker
2 Cynthia
2 Volkner

4 Junk Arm
4 PokeTurn
2 Pokemon Rescue
3 Expert Belt
2 Pokemon Communication
2 WP
1 Luxury Ball
1 SP Radar

3 BTS

3 Rescue Energy
2 Warp Energy


Standard G-dos list. Discard karps early on with Regice/Junk Arm. Get a Gyarados set-up with an Expert Belt and hopefully a Rescue energy.

Added in LuxrayGLX

Comments are greatly appreciated :thumb:

SP Radar isn't needed, 2 Cynthia's aren't really needed too. 3 Expert Belts are definitely too much and try tzo fit in 4 Poke Drawer+, thay are absolutly great with Junk Arm.

So it would be best for you to do something like:

-2 Cynthia's
-1 SP Radar
-1 Expert Belt

+4 Poke Drawer+

Hope that helped you.

Combee can be a good choice against trainer-lock decks, but against SP deck that uses Honchkrow G/Crobat G it could be very risky. But nothing is perfect. =/
I like your list, but I'd make some changes:
-4 Poké Drawer +: I used this card in lots of decks, because you could keep one in your hand and with luck get another (by Claydol). But as your deck's draw power isn't steady, you might take it out. If you want to search for any card in your deck, you may use Twins. This card has a terrible condition if you're winning, but if you add 2, it can be very helpful in a mid-game.
-4 Poké-Drawer +
+2 Twins
So, there are 2 free spots. Maybe 1 Pokémon Rescue and another Seeker.
+1 Pokémon Rescue
+1 Seeker

I'm not unlikely to use a Seeker. It's up to you, do what you want about the Seeker's spot.
 
Twins is nice, but if you have the Poke Drawers they are much better, because you can use them with Junk Arm again....
Seeker HAS TO BE in here, because it is so great if you get your gyara onto the bench and thenn take it back with seeker or do any other things with it. It is just great in Gyarados.

The combo Junk Arm and Poke-Drawer is questionable. I said the "maybe" for one more Seeker because it can be too much. I'm kinda scared about Gyarados buildings in a City. With TM cards it'll be a very strong deck.
