Standard Eternal Ninetails (Alolan Ninetales/Alolan Ninetales GX/Gyarados GX)

So the ideal set up would be to have two Manaphy SLG 25 that are healing 40 a turn, the Manaphy EX to provide free retreat, the Oranguru for card draw, then have a baby ninetails and either Gyarados GX or Ninetails GX that you can keep guzma/retreating depending on if your opponent is playing an EX or GX. Aqua Patch and Max Elixir get energy to your bench which you can then Multi Switch to either attach or gain free retreat through Manaphy.

Would love any feedback on how you think this could be tweaked or improved!

Thanks guys!
 
Personally, I feel that Skyla is a card you should either play a lot of or not at all. You either have it to offer the incredible consistency at the sacrifice of maybe some speed, or just forget about it. I would recommend taking out the Skyla for another Alolan Vulpix, since those are so good for setting up, and you already need to run them for your Ninetales.
I'd also probably swap the Brock's Grit and Float stone for one more Sycamore and Nest Ball. You have Manaphy for retreating, and more consistency is always good.

When the Dawn Wings Necrozma comes out, you might want to consider running one of them. You can use it's ability plus a water energy to basically have universally free retreat, which let's you dedicate your energy attachments to your attackers instead of retreating.

Hope this helps!
 
Makes total sense, I was kind of weary of those few single trainer cards "floating" around in there ha.

Thanks for the feed back, going to adjust ahead of league cup tomorrow!
