There was a no rares tournament at Texas States, in which I ran Trubbish/Lunatone/Eel. I went 4-2, I believe; since then, I've always seen Trubbish as an actual attacker that may one day see an opportunity to shine. Well, I think I may have found its partners.
The Deck:
4 Trubbish (Tool Drop, 70 HP)
4 Sigilyph (August's set)
2 Surskit (August's set)
2 Masquerain (August's set)
= 12 Pokemon
4 Level Ball
1 Master Ball (August's set) Or a life dew
4 Exp Share
4 Giant Cape
4 Eviolite
4 Silver Mirror (August's set)
4 Float Stone
1 Super Rod
4 Juniper
4 N
2 Bianca
2 Colress (or perhaps Random Receiver?)
= 38 Items/Supporters
10 Psychic sychic:
= 10 Energy
Deck's Idea:
Trubbish's attack does 20 damage times the amount of tools on the field; Sigilyph grants 3 bonus tools on your side of the field per Sigilyph; Masquerain lets you move those tools as you see fit, so that exp share can turn into a silver mirror, etc.
Now, this is the first draft of the list. I feel I may have too many tools, and there are no catchers or switch yet. I also think that 11 energy is the magic number in most decks, so I want to add another.
Deck's downfalls so far:
This deck has a hard time getting that first attack off, since it takes 2 manual energy attachments to a 70HP pokemon. However, exp share helps all the following attacks. The deck also has little draw power; it is incredibly hard to get the pokemon, tools, and energy needed to OHKO an EX pokemon early game--or even late game.

P.S. I also found a card called Elesa that is a supporter that grants you 3 tool cards from the deck. However I have no idea if/when we'd get that card.
