A few things here;

1. Your deck has 61 cards, which is 1 more then the required 60 needed for a legal deck list
2. When using unreleased cards in a deck list, you are required to post exactly what the card(s) does somewhere in your post
3. When posting a deck list, you are required to post the strategy of the deck so we can get you the correct help you're looking for

As for what your deck is looking to do, adding a mashup of good cards doesn't always make for a good deck. You have a lot of 1 of-cards, meaning you'll have a hard time getting any of the cards you want to see. While this isn't required of you, its easier to post trainers cards in a Supporter/Item/Stadium format so its easier to see.
 
I concur with vaporeon with regards to the 1 of-cards. You are going to have a hard time finding those 1 of-cards. Also, when you say "going well in regionals" do you mean make top 8? I have competed in the recent Arizona regionals Masters and I have been following the top decks from the Autumn regionals. I haven't seen any Mienshao decks or M Manectric decks in the top 8 of the regionals. The decks that have won 1st place at regionals are Yveltal/Darkrai, Vespiquen/Flareon, Seismitoad/Crobat decks. Also, it looks like your deck is in the standard format, the regionals have been in expanded format. Maybe you should be looking more at popular standard decks instead of regional decks that have been doing well...
