This deck's strategy is simple: you hit your opponent's slowest pokemon in the bench, pull it to the active spot by Cyrus and lock it by Ariados, then using Pheromosa or Grovyle to target opponent's Mega or Ex.

This deck is very consistent: 2 Fragent Forest guarantees to draw all the basic pokemon, while 2 Grow Extract guarantees to find all their evolutions.

It is very effective against top tier decks like sleep decks, suicune or Mega Absol.

However, it is very hard to play, equally difficult to old school Darkrai Giratina. You must understand the opponent's deck to devise your own strategy, know how to bait your opponent to play their slow pokemon to their field, and have plan B in case your opponents realize your own strategy.
