Although they aren't as solid as some of the other colors, they do hold their own well if you watch your weaknesses and balance them carefully with colorless Pokemon in addition. It looks like you've done a good job here of balancing Nidoran family's psychic weakness with Scyther's fire weakness and Lickitung's Psychic resistance. However, I believe you'll find more success with this deck if you take out the Nidoqueens, Snorlax and Promo Mewtwo. Instead, let's add a couple of Kangaskhan.
Pokemon (12 Basic + 3 Evols = 15 Total):
4 Nidoran (F)
3 Nidorina
4 Scyther
2 Lickitung
2 Kangaskhan
For energy, we focus on grass, grass, and well, more grass ;)
Energy (14 Basic + 4 Special = 18 Total):
14 Grass
4 Double Colorless Energy
We reduce back on Energy and Pokemon in an effort to stuff more trainers in our deck. Trainers are really the key to winning games. We want to focus on card drawing and disruption of our opponent's strategy. Since you chose Energy Removal in the deck you sent me, we'll stick with that one as one of the staple disruption methods.
Trainers (27 Total):
4 Bill
3 Professor Oak
2 Computer Search
3 Gust of Wind
3 Nightly Garbage Run
3 Trash Exchange
4 Energy Removal
3 Item Finder
2 Scoop Up
Good luck!
