Intro: After screwing up my ranking invite at nationals going 4-4 (having 3 ralts prized 3 games!!) I had to make a deck for grinders cause its 1 hour away from where i live. I made many decks like mother gengar, Gechamp, Flygon, Toolbox, luxape, and many more but i found the most interesting to be palkia lock as it can screw your opponents set up, and have decent attacks, now I only needed to make my luxape matchup so i teched in the luxray to beat the matchup and it worked 99%of the ime agaionst luxape. One of my worst matchups was gengar if they get set up before i can power lock them and so was the deck created >>>>>>>>>>>>>PLUX<<<<<<<<<< P=palkia, LUx=luxray and its the new PLOX. My friend said i should run 1-1 bronzong if i had to play mewtwo matchup and i said if they will be mewtwos at grinders then I will added but it did'T happen which costed me a trip to hawaii oh well here it is the report
okay here it goes
sorry that i forgot most of the names of some my oppoenents but i played so many i already forgot the names

top32 PLUX vs. LUXRAY/BANNETTE/SP TECHS RYO
well this guy has a close list to the "Kyogre KID" who won in juniors and it was a hard matchup i abused many bright looks for cheap prizes and keppt hydro shooting his fresh luxrays until it was 1-2 my favour he has luxray gl.x out i have palkia g x out and toxicroak benched he looks at my discard pile and sees the psychic energy and smiles when i saw that i also played the role as the guy who doesn't run 2 psychic in his deck and i bluffed so that he kills my palkia and i respond for game with toxicroak energy gain, psychcic GG
1-0 game oen after 50 minutes only 25 remaining
second game i get toxicroak g start same as him and we both have our psychci energys prized and failed to flip heads for 4 straight minutes until i top deck cyrus and get the croak out of there and use my pixie lock to stall and take some prizes with luxray when it was 3-4 my favour time was called and i make it to t16
YAY I MADE IT TO NEXT day I'm sad that L_X_F made a HUGE misplay and got kicked out of top 32, and dylan got pwn by mewtwo x, and z-man is aweosme kicken our Ex world champion dylan l. out of t32
DAY 3
i see at home who i have to play and say no way not my german buddy jacob who runs another of my autolosses GEchamp with blowers and he just kicked curran hill out of worlds wow this is getting harder oh well i made my mind if i can start 1 game with t2 uxie and get the donk and another game also then i should be fine well who would no that i saw in the future
top16 PLUX VS GeCHAMP JACOB
okay my start is uxie play mesprit t1 lock play azelf get my unown g out of my prizesand g my uxie and use psychic restore for 30 on machamp his hand was rigged t1 candy champ energy and double blowers my mesprit for a k.o and i respon with t1 uxie x and lucario gl FOR A DONK

0-1 i know i list this game badly and z-man is also currently loosing to the same deck its so rigged when they get the mewtwo x out
game 2 i get uuberness crap and he gets t2 mewtwo x, flygon,claydol, nidoquenn FTW so rigged and i use bright look up the queen as i think he only runs 2 psychic energy and 1 is attached to mewtwo and he doesn't have many enegrys left so i hydro shoot claydol to be safe for some turns and stall maybe to deck him if the psychic is prized so i keep using spalshiing turn send up crobat fir at least 25 turns until he gets his psychic energy and pwns me with deckout machine deck.
0-2
