Ho-Oh Legend FireStorm (Arceus related Deck)

[Circuit]

Well, I have a good deck here at the moment. But it has one downfall, the amount of Pokemon compared to Energies and Trainers. Anyway, I'm not looking to change it totally, I'd like to keep it along these lines. I'll explain why everything is there as well. So here it is.

Pokemon:
Arceus Colourless Pt Arceus x1
Arceus Earth Pt Arceus x1
Arceus Dark Pt Arceus x1 - Once a Prize card is secured, this beatdown deals 80 damage for two energies.
Arceus Electric Pt Arceus x2 - A fragile finisher, whilst still switching out again for the beatstick to attack again.
Arceus Water Pt Arceus x2 - A solid 50, but sometimes not that useful while better cards are around.
Arceus Fire Pt Arceus x2 - A huge one-turn 80, possibly lasting two or more. Plus my favourite.
Arceus Grass Pt Arceus x2 - A nice change from having to use the Moo-moo milks for healing, plus 150 points of health is better than 60.
Arceus Psychic Pt Arceus x2 - Confusion and 40 damage, has crippled many a foe before.
Arceus Steel Pt Aceus x2 - My high health wall. If I need to stall out, this works quite well at 90 points of health.
Arceus LV.X Promo DP53 x2 - This can take many foes by surprise when it imitates another Arceus LV.X, while also doubling any other Arceus's move.
Arceus LV.X Promo DP56 x1 - This is my absolute Arceus beatstick with 100, then possibly 50, may have lost Attack points, but they can be regained just as easily
Arceus LV.X Pt Arceus 96/99 x1 - Just there to add to the beatdown effect. 100's seem to come wuite easily with this deck eh?

Trainers: 25
4 Pokemon Collector
4 Copycat
4 Prof Oak's New Theory
4 Ultimate Zone
3 Expert Belt
1 Luxury Ball
1 PokeGear
4 Beginning Door

Energy: 16
4 Double Colorless Energy
3 Water Energy
2 Fire Energy
2 Lightning Energy
2 Psychic Energy
2 Dark Energy
1 Fighting Energy

There she is. I have adopted the shown deck's Trainers and Energies, because I could think of no better way to replace them, however the monsters have been change to how I wanted them.

uhhh i know arceus comes in different types but what is the card name? is it just 'arceus' no matter the type? if this is the case you cant have more that 4 in your deck. Also alot of your cards are illegal. right off the top you have cards from secret wonders. also i assume that because you have so many different types in there it must be really hard to draw energies you need because there are only 4 of each kind. try slimming it down to two types and add other pokemon other than arceus. sure level x is a good card but if you cant draw it you're screwed with the regular ones.

Arceus specifically says on each card that you can have any number of it in your deck. And an Arceus deck thrives on utilizing every Arceus.

Though Budew is not tourney legal. And neither are Sableye and Misdreavus.

As for comments on the deck itself: Ho-oh LEGEND isn't a very good LEGEND at all, since it's got only 140 HP, a 2x Weakness, and needs 4 energy to do 100 damage, which is pretty weak for the LEGEND cards, and you aren't running anything like Legend Box to get it out faster. So I'd ditch that element and go with an Arceus deck, since you seem to have a decent start on that.

A solid Arceus decklist for reference, but not the golden standard: https://www.pokecommunity.com/threads/229531

For an idea of what cards are tournament legal... if you can find them in the "Modified" format search part of the page below, they're legal:

It's not your fault I've been into Organized Play since March of 2009. You'll learn quickly enough that I'm a middle of the road player because I don't get to events often enough.

Updated. How's it looking now?

It looks better because it's now more consistent.
