Basically same as any VirGen deck. Accel energy with Virizion then hit hard with Genesect.
 
VirGen (Virizion/Genesect)

Alrighty ill take a look at this is the morning (dont have the time now) however at a quick here's 2 things:
•Bouffalant needs DCE I would honestly take him out even if you did run DCEs but yeah... He's useless without DCE.
•Way too many energy! 8 Grass 4 Prism is the max I would go to.
 
RE: VirGen (Virizion/Genesect)

Here's a few suggestions:
Tropius: Destroys Suicune/Terrakion. Even one could take six prizes, if you play it right.
Deoxys EX: Helps against non-EX's which tank Megalo Cannon like Bouffalant and Kyurem.
DCE: Same as what cameclone said. Apparently it works well wih G Booster too.
Others include Super Rod and Plasma Badge. Be careful of Flareon.

I like the taking out Bouffalant but my energy amount has been fine. And why would I run Prism..?

To Tropius I might test it, Deoxys-EX... No. DCE No. I already have Rod and I might be putting in Badge.

I would change Tool Scrapper to 2 and Colress Machine to 4, so you have a higher chance of getting the T1 Emerald Slash.

Definitely not taking out any scrapper but I may fit in another Colress Machine

Edit. What should I change 1 Grass energy to?

You might consider Switch. If the opponent puts you to sleep via HTL it can come in handy so your turn is not wasted.

Oops I forgot to switch sky bridges to switch lol. I'm on my iPod so I'll do it later. Thanks King!
 
RE: VirGen (Virizion/Genesect)

...but you can't get put to sleep as long as you have an energy attached because of Virizion EX. Skyarrow seems to outclass it in every way.

My friend also said I needed switch. TBH I don't think I switch enough to need Sky Bridge in play.
 
RE: VirGen (Virizion/Genesect)

I put Laserbank in my grass deck. I figure why not take advantage of the fact that you are immune to status effects. Plus it helps get rid of frozen city. Which i feel is always a threat to any non plasma deck. The added damage also greatly helps during the time you are setting up.

Yet it's at least 6 dead cards in the mirror match up... I'm going to stray away from Laserbank. Partially because my sister uses most of my Gyms and Lasers.... Lol. And generally I'll be attaching to Genesect and if I'm not I can Plasma Badge.
 
RE: Balloon Animals (Virizion/Genesect/Drifblim)

A user suggested that you play Hypnotic Laser with Virbank Gym, but you decided against it since you figured it doesn't help much in the mirror match up.

You might consider Twist Mountain and Aerodactyl as an alternative, or Old Amber, Aerodactyl, and Caitlin if you want more consistency.

[private]Has been verbally warned, as Aerodactyl is, not... Not that good for consistency. I mean, I've run it before, but that was in a completely different (and actually quite good) Tornadus deck. ~Kecleon[/private]

Aerodactyl/Amber/Caitlin will destroy my consistency and doesn't have much point IMO... And I've been perfectly fine without LaserBank so far.
 
RE: Balloon Animals (Virizion/Genesect/Drifblim)

Might take out Drifblim's for LaserBank. Thoughts on that?
 
RE: VirGen (Virizion/Genesect)

Any help? Took out ALL techs for a super consistent list.

EDIT: Any thoughts on 1 Lugia-EX and 1 DCE? Just a thought...
