I play my vilegar with 2 Bts only, because in the metagame of my country all the decks hace at least two or three Bts, and in some duels i have one or two Bts in my hands, i play one line of machamp Sf for the luxchomps and anothers Sp decks an d put one energy rainbow, in the personal i play without crobat g, four collector, three bebe's and two pont.

in other words: - 1 Bts, - 1 Rare Candy, - Warp energy, + 1 energy rescue, + 1 pont, or anothers card that you like.
 
You should try out Zangoose PL as well. Works great against mirror and pulling heavy retreater into active spot while they are under trainer lock is really nice.
So my suggestion is:
-Rare Candy
+Gastly SF
and
-Uxie
+ Zangoose
I would also drop a Copycat or PONT for 4th Collector.
 
For mirror nidoqueen is awesome. Mewtwo is amazing, considering its dmg output and anti SP. To play a great SP deck and drop Mewtwo with no way of them killing it in some list is priceless. 2 slots to auto win many SP builds is always worth it IMO
 
Pokemon collector should be four and bebe's should be three.
Also, you should have 4 copycats.
I'd add a second rare candy, too.

I think Mewtwo is awful. It does not help against your main counter: Dialga G Lv. X, instead making you more incosistent. Also, 1-1 line of Mewtwo is usually manageable with a Dragon Rush + Flash Bite. But i think Vilegar has an ok matchup against Luxray variant SPs without Mewtwo. Again, it doesn't help against Sablelock or Dialgachomp, so i dont see the point of running it.

If you really want to abuse having no counter to Mewtwo, just add 2-1 line of him, so they will be in real trouble.
 
If you have troubles with the Sp matchs, you can put a line of machamp Sf, only one, i used this in my vilegar 1-1-1 Machamp Sf! and one energy rainbow, twins do the another work
