Strategy
Get up a Gliscor Lv.X as fast as possible and start Hit and Run while dishing out a lot of damage.
This deck counters many of the most popular decks like
Gengar/Dusknoir: They have Weakness.
Raichu: They have Weakness.
Regigigas: They have Weakness.
Tyranitar: They have Weakness.
Machamp: I have Resistance.
Kingdra: I have Mr. Mime.
Blissey: They have Weakness.

Suggestions?

this might actually work, yet u might want to put in a pokemon to either put on special conditions for big damage, or put in something like omastar, for disruption.
 
Hmm I know how much you use lake, but when you play against kingdra and you have your mr mime active. You would like to retreat it to hit for 60. You only have 1 warp piont. Nice idea!
 
I like it. You don;t need so many Great Balls though or Lake Boundarys. I also thibk you could get away with 11 Energy. A TM TS-2 would be a nice tech in here. I also think Uxie, another G, and a 4th SSU could help and gl.
 
kingdra is a pretty tough matchup, but mr mime really does cripple them. if you play carefully it's definately winnable. i really do like this deck though. i've been messing around with gliscor for a while and this was one of my favorite combos. my suggestion would be more consistent draw than 4 pokedex. i'm also not sold on the great balls. i'd drop at least 1 of them for another darkness energy. also a 1-1 gyrados mt is cool in here.
 
I am curious how this deck works, once you do your hit and run move and Mr Mime is made active do you have to burn an energy to retreat him? I am sure that is why the Unown Q is there but there is only 1 card and that can't be reliable. Wouldn't it be better to run a Moonlight?

I made a similar deck with Donphan and Bronzong (no weavile) and it worked surprisingly well. How do u think this deck would work with Bronzong instead of Mr Mime? Is the Lake Boundary important/critical to this deck?
 
you should switch wevile for shedninja la so when they knock you out tehy get 4 on all their kingdras and it also has free retreat
 
stevo, i think the main point of weavile sw in this deck is it's ability to allow gliscor to target darkness weaknesses.

My suggestions and fixes to my own liking would be 1 more special dark, 1 more warp point, 3 pokedex then 4, and also 2 unown g's so you can put it on a mr. mime ezier. I'd also even considering from my post removing the pokedex and adding 2 unown Q's and adding a switch for a just in case. Also i just noticed that i lowered lake boundary from 3 to 2 since with my luck i always get stadiums. Nice work.
