Pros: running Palkia helps correct your potential bench issues, and also gives you a contingency plan to Lost Zone things in case Gengar Prime isn't as fast as you'd like.
*Running multiples of Spiritomb TM – a crucial card in netting yoru Hurl Into Darkness targets – is also a good plan in my opinion. Spiritomb Arceus also helps out a ton in this regard.
Cons: …And on that note, I should mention that this list is fairly slow relative to some of the other ones I've seen floating around lately. You might want to fit some Rare Candies in, as suggested above.
Also, you might encounter a couple issues with not running Gengar LV.X; however, running four Gengar Prime also makes it much easier to start Lost Zoning ASAP, so mess around with it.
In my third and probably final Deck List Dump of LostGar, I'll be revealing my take on a turbo list (which is so far my favorite variant).
Best of luck in testing for states, everybody! As I said, don't take my word alone, because this is just a starting point.
