-Strategy-
This deck would work quite a lot better if it had the card my friend told me was in the format in it... However, the card (Recycle Energy) has not been reprinted since NGen. Sooo that isn't in this deck for obvious reasons.
Anyway, this is your generic non-Dark Snorlax Deck. Its major weaknesses are Machamp and the mighty Hippo, but the latter of the two gives more trouble to it than the prior due to lack of energy accel (directly to the Pokemon). The strategy of this deck is rather simple: load up your hand with Energy while Snorlax X is active and reap the benefits of healing with Exercise. It's actually rather effective.
-_Snorlax/X_-
The meat of the deck. With Snowpoint, Snorlax X has 150 HP, a nice power, and three decent attacks. The main focus of the deck relies on Snorlax's Exercise. 80 for 4 energies sounds pretty bad at first, until you take the healing into consideration. For each energy discarded, one Damage Counter is removed from Snorlax, and that adds up with the energy accel and Snorlax's internal draw engine, Big Appetite.
-_Xatu_-
Xatu is my personal favorite tech in Snorlax. It can move the Sleep condition caused by Big Appetite over to your opponent's Pokemon and heal Snorlax. This also is helpful in the rare event that you encounter a deck that uses Special Conditions, if you don't want to waste a Poke Healer +. Xatu's other fortunate gift is his ability to snipe, and his resistance to Fighting types. Sleep aside, he's a decent Anti-Machamp tech.
-_Bronzong_-
Part one of the two-part Energy Accel for the deck, Bronzong snatches two Basic Energies from the deck and places them in the hand with the Cycler PokePower. Those energies can then be discarded by Snorlax for Excercise or attached to something that needs to be powered up. Other than that, he typically sits on the bench, though he could be used for spread against decks that have higher retreat costs. He's not much of an attacker over all, though.
-_Starmie_-
The second part of this deck's Energy Accel. Starmie recycles the Water Energies in the discard, allowing you to power up the healing power of Excercise or attach to your attackers.
