Aegislash Deck Rogue

Hello my friends I´m back with a new deck idea from the XY Base Set.
This deck is around Aegislash (King´s Shield) and Keldeo EX with float Stone.

Card Explanation (From PokeBeach.com)

Aegislash - Metal - HP140
Stage 1 - Evolves from Doublade

"You can´t attack me"
Ability: Stance Change
During your turn (before your attack), you may switch this Pokemon with another Aegislash card from your hand. (Any cards attached to this Pokemon, damage counters, Special Conditions, turns in play, and any other effects remain on the new Pokemon.)
[M][M][C][C] King’s Shield: 50 damage. During your opponent's next turn, prevent all damage done to this Pokemon by your opponent’s attacks. This Pokemon can't use King's Shield during your next turn.

Weakness: Fire (x2)
Resistance: Psychic (-20)
Retreat: 3

This card is very annoying because since people don´t use Pokémon Cátcher you can attack with King´s Shield and make your opponent pass his turn. The next turn use Rush In and then retreat The Keldeo EX to use King´s Shield again.

As I haven´t tested this deck a lot I will just post the Skeleton list so you can work on it and maybe share your own list in the comments.

Skeleton List:

Pokémon (13)

3x Aegislash (King's Shield)
1x Aegislash (Buster Swing)
3x Doublade
3x Honedge
3x Keldeo EX

Trainers (29)

4x Juniper
4x N
4x Skyla
3x Bicycle

3x Rare Candy
3x Ultra Ball
3x Level Ball
3x Foat Stone
2x Tool Scrapper

Energy (12)

4x Double Colorless Energy
8x Metal Energy

Total : 54

Maybe in this 6 free spots you can add cards for consistency like Ultra Ball or Level Ball, more supporters, +1 Tool Scrapper if you see a lot of Garbodor decks.

Hope you liked this entry,
see ya!

Card Explanation:

The most important card of the deck is Aromatisse that allow us to move our Energy cards (like Hydreigon) around to heal our Pokémon with max potion.

Aromatisse: 90 HP  Stage 1        Evolves from: Spritzee         Fairy type
Ability: Fairy Transfer: As often as you like during your turn, you may move an Fairy Energy from one of your Pókémon to another of your Pokémon.
(Fa)(Fa)(C): Fairy Wind   60
Weakness: (M) x2   Resistance: (D) -20  Retreat: (C) (C)

Also the other supporter in this deck is Slurpuff. He allow us to keep our Pokémon without any Special Conditions.

Slurpuff:  90 HP  Stage 1    Evolves from: Swirlix       Fairy type
Ability: Sweet Veil: Each of your Pokémon that has any (Fa) Energy attached to it can´t be affected by any Special Conditions. (Remove any Special Conditions affecting those Pokémon).
(Fa)(C)   Draining Kiss   30   Heal 30 damage from this Pokémon.
Weakness: (M) x2   Resistance: (D) -20  Retreat: (C) (C)

The attackers of this deck are Xerneas and Xerneas EX. The first one is our energy accelerator and Xerneas EX our principal attacker.

Xerneas:  130 HP   Basic          Fairy type
(Fa) : Geomancy: Choose 2 of your benched Pokémon. For each of those Pokémon, search your deck for a (Fa) Energy card and attach it to Pokémon. Shuffle your deck afterward.
(Fa)(Fa)(C) Rainbow Spear       100   Discard an energy attached to this Pokémon.
Weakness: (M) x2   Resistance: (D) -20  Retreat: (C) (C)

Xerneas EX: 170 HP  Basic    Fairy type
(Fa)(C)(C) Break Through   60   This attack does 30 damage to 1 of your opponent´s benched Pokémon. (Don´t apply Weakness or Resistance for Benched Pokémon.
(Fa)(Fa)(C)(C): X Blast     140   This Pokémon can´t use X Blast during your next turn.
Weakness: (M) x2   Resistance: (D) -20  Retreat: (C) (C)

The main stadium that this deck uses is Fairy Garden that allows to retreat your Pokémon for free.

Fairy Garden      Trainer      Stadium:

Each Pokémon that has any (Fa) Energy attached to it (both yours and your opponent's) has no Retreat Cost.

 
Strategy:

The strategy in this deck isvery simple, just Energy Acellerate T2with Xerneas, T3 move the energy to Xerneas EX and start attacking with X Blast, then next turn retreat your Active Xerneas EX and bring to Active another Xerneas EX, then move the Energy and use X Blast again.
Whenever you need to heal your Pokémon, move the Energy and heal it with Max Potion. Then move the Energy again and attack.
 
Personal Thought:

This deck is very strong against almost any deck in the actual meta except for Dragonite/Garbodor, against this deck you can use Muscle Band to OHKO Dragonite.

I think this deck is going to see a lot of play because it´s very strong and has good match ups. Also it´s a cheap option for new players looking for a competitive deck.
