    I need advice ASAP on this list. States is coming!

    Pokemon:

    • 3 Florges EX PHF
      3 Spritzee FLF
      2 Aromatisse XY
      1 Gardevoir EX PCL
      1 Mega Gardevoir EX PCL
      1 Keldeo EX BCR
      1 Klefki FFI
      2 Xerneas XY
    Trainers/Supporters/Stadiums:

    • 4 N
      3 Professor Juniper
      2 Professor Birch's Observations
      1 Colress
      2 Lysandre
      1 Xerosic
      3 VS Seeker
      3 Hard Charm
      2 Jamming Net
      3 Max Potion
      3 Ultra Ball
      3 Pokemon Fan Club
      1 Target Whistle
      1 Dowsing Machine
      4 Fairy Garden
    Energy:

    • 10 Fairy Energy

    Strategy:

    Its the Fairy charms you know and love, now updated for the current meta.

    It goes off of the usual strategy, spam fairy pokemon onto the bench, put a hard charm on Florges and a jamming net on the defending pokemon, and keep hitting a hard 100-120 damage while your opponent does up to 80 less. Then abuse things like max potion in order to keep going.

    I have included a few things with today's meta. First off, Target whistle.
    Why a target whistle? Well think about it; Flareon and night march, 2 prevailing decks that are gaining popularity, are now running 2 Jirachi EX to get their precious empoleon out. If they happen to discard a jirachi (or an eggsecute for that matter), you can take advantage of them and put it onto their bench, not only putting out an easy prize but also filling up one of their precious bench spaces they use for empoleon, slurpuff, or backup attackers. I figure you can at most use it twice if you hit dowsing machine at the right time

    You may notice that there is only 1 colress and 3 juniper, yet 2 Professor birch's observations. Why?
    Discarding your whole hand a lot of times gets tough in a fairies deck. Getting a t1 colress and nothing else is even worse. So I figured its better to draw 4 than nothing, on top of the fact that Florges can already grab a supporter.

    Xerosic
    I Used to run Iris, but seismitoad is becoming a bigger and bigger problem. Xerosic has mutliple capabilities, from removing a tool from a garbodor to taking away a strong energy.

    No Startling megaphone
    Actually, I just ran out of room to fit this in. I don't know what can be sacrificed in its place. At least there is always xerosic

    M Gardevoir.
    When this card came out, everyone was like, "OMG, WE FINALLY GOT A FAIRY ATTACKER". Well it is attacker, but a rather predictable one. If you can consitently wall with florges doing damage, you should be able to at one time take a turn to mega evolve without the spirit link. I mean, how did kangaskhan work? Its a big payout attacker that can help for that final blow, as florges only does 120 max.

    I haven't been able to do much testing with this, any comments are appreciated.

    Unfortunately, the deck gets wrecked by toad.Not by damage output, but just because you can't play Items. Which sucks in an Item based deck. So if you're looking into a big meta with Toad in it (which I fail to see why it wouldnt, saying that it's been absolutely dominant the past few weeks)

    I don't think that this could be the best meta call on your end, but if you're able to do well and shut me up, then that's great, but u just don't think it'll happen.

    It actually hits toad a bit hard for its low energy requirement.

    But yeah, I see where you are coming from. Anyways, I made a new list, sure to counter toad, using none other than toad itself (and a plethora of fairies)

    Pokemon:
    2 Florges EX
    3 Spritzee FF 67
    2 Aromatisse XY 93
    1 Keldeo EX
    1 Klefki FI 73
    2 Xerneas XY 96
    1 Xerneas EX
    2 Seismitoad EX
    Trainers/Supporters/Stadiums:
    4 N
    3 Professor Juniper
    2 Professor Birch's Observations
    1 Colress
    2 Lysandre
    3 VS Seeker
    2 Startling Megaphone
    3 Max Potion
    3 Ultra Ball
    3 Pokemon Fan Club
    1 Dowsing Machine
    4 Fairy Garden
    1 AZ
    3 Muscle Band
    Energy:
    10 Fairy Energy
    1 Double Colorless Energy

    Strategy:
    Okay, what counters fairies? Steel. Thats the first and simple answer
    Yet, steel is not played in my area and is no where near popular.
    In essence, that leaves a few other threats to the deck, being flareon, night march, seismitoad (a bit), and garbodor.

    What messes with flareon, and night march? Seismitoad.
    What messes Garbodor? A heavy startling megaphone line and a low reliance on abilities (hence Florges EX)
    What counters the popular seismitoad decks? Florges and Seismitoad Tank decks.

    So in essence, this is designed to have a good overall matchup
    Basic strategy:
    1.start with anything but klefki or spritzee (Happens all the time :P)
    2. Get a few energy in play
    3. Hit hard with item lock (if facing night march, flareon, medicham, or anything else heavily item related)
    OR
    Chip and shoot: Florges Muscle band + xerneas EX for that magical 170. Great against Yveltal decks

    A few notable cards:
    AZ: This card is a great max potion replacement when in need, but primarilly helps take a stupid water pokemon out of play so you can make your bench more pink :) and hit with florges
    Professor Birch's observations: More draw support that also helps as a starter (unlike colress)
    1 DCE: DCE's aren't really too helpful in fairy decks, but really can help power up xerneas EX or Seismitoad EX in one turn
    Keldeo EX: Prevents all status conditions from doing too much harm abusing its rush in ability as well as fairy garden and aromatisse.

    Plus, because its not so common for a fairy deck to run seismitoad, you also have the element of suprize on your side. Think of it: flareon ko's xerneas: you bench a toad, band it, and power it up with aromatisse and fairy garden. Catches them off guard because they likely discarded their leafeon already
