I just finished making a Lvl. X-Destroyer Deck. I thought up the idea for this deck a few weeks back, and just yesterday finally recieved the last card I needed to complete it. (A third LA Luxray.) At League today, it didn't fare all too well......I lost every match in which my opponent had a Lvl. X-based deck, save two or three due to my opponent getting a bad start, which really defeats the purpose of the deck. I figured I'd post this here, to see if someone could give me some suggestions on how to make it run a bit smoother. Thanks in advance for any help.

I had initially intended just to make the deck focused on the Mightyena and Luxray, but realized that one good Fighting Pokemon/deck could wipe me out, and that, given the new set, a good number of people will be using Fighting in the coming months, so I was looking through my cards and found the Milotic, which was a perfect fit. It was Water, which a good amount of Fighting types are weak to, Gliscor Lvl. X and Rhyperior Lvl. X included, and it's Poke-Body flowed great with the deck's theme. I added the Smeargle and Pachirisu to make set-up a bit easier/faster.
Currently, I'm thinking about adding more Energies to the Deck, because I tended to have a lot of Energy-Poor moments running it. I had originally had 22 Energies, but a friend who saw my deck list while I was getting the cards I needed advised me to cut it down to16-18, and run more Trainers. I followed his advice, but I still think it might be too little Energy. Any ideas on how to make this deck work better?
