Thoughts for a new deck...what do you think???

pokemon 19
4 x eevee ss
2 x espeon ss
1 x flareon sky
1 x jolteon sky
1 x vaporeon ss
2 x wynaut
2 x wobbuffet
2 x buzz
2 x cacnea poison payback
2 x cacnea poison payback

nrg 20
3 x boost
3 x multi
5 x psy
5 x elec
2 x fire
2 x water

trainers 21
4 x elm
3 x copy cat
2 x switch
2 x fisherman
2 x poke nurse
2 x lyn. net search
3 x lady outing
3 x energy switch

Use eevees evo attack to pull whichever fury critter works best...
boost can be a big plus for sudden attacks...cacturne is a great cleaner
and bench finisher.....wobbuffet good attacks and ex defender....

any thoughts or suggestions for improvement.....

Skyridge Jolteon is not that great. The second attack will also damage your bench with energy cards attached. The SS Jolteon is a good card. But if it is going for 70 of Lighting Strike, it needs for L energy.

Good comment.
I looked at both jolteons closely and using the skyridge was a close call.
It has free retreat and is self-healing. The ss has stronger attacks
but uses 2 electrics. I saw the bench damage as a potential plus
since the deck uses boost energy and energy switches.

I'll test both and see what happens. Thanks....

No offense or anything this deck needs work try drop to two types or three with 4 lady outing

The idea is to pull the fury critter that can best attack your opponents weakness. This can provide attacks of 80 or more. Wobbuffet shuts
down ex and can do 50 attack damage. SS Espeon can do massive
damage especially to pyschic decks. Buzz is a solid hitter and is quick
on the attack. With the boost energies any of the main attackers could
do serious second turn damage.

I also thought about dropping one energy line-probably fire but
added it until I was able to test it out.

The fourth lady outing might be a good idea.
Thanks for you help.
 
While it always looks like a good idea in theory, multi-colored decks like this, even Eeveelution decks, tend to have Energy problems. Multi-colored attackers are always nice, but if you want to have more than 2 Pokemon types, try to use Pokemon or Evolution lines with all-Colorless costs, at least for the attacks you plan to use. Cacturne is an excellent example. Also, you may want to use Rainbow Energies, either instead of or in addition to your Multi Energies. The one damage counter is a pain, true, but I think that drawback is easier to deal with than Multi Energy's. A whole other way to go about the "attack your opponent's Weakness" plan is Kecleon, since it can be whatever type you want, as long as you can pull the right color of Basic Energy. Of course, that does mean a rather big change in your deck focus, but I've seen Kecleon decklists that look very good.
