>Hiya!  You are a good mechanic,  so I hope that you're up to my deck's challenge.  My stratagy?  Use the Chansey,scoop up Chansey, use Vileplume to knock out your opponent, and repeat if possible! I have found that after using many decks, it is the most effective deck I use, and it is awesome.  However, I get killed a lot by Fire, so I added a few Porygon to convert the opponent before it gets fainted.  Here is "You Vile, Vile Chansey!"
>    4 Chansey
>    4 Vileplume

>Chansey/Scoop Up is certainly a good stall tactic for a deck.  The question is...why are you stalling?  By your discription this deck wins by attacking so you aren't stalling to run your opponent out of cards.  This means you must be stalling to build up a "Super Powerful" Pokemon to move in for the kill.  While Vileplume is many things...super powerful is not one of them.  For leaf Pokemon Nidoking, Venusaur, and Beedrill pack a mean punch.  In my deck I use Nidoking because the whole line has no weakness to fire...your decks weak point.  The fact that the Toxic attack ROCKS is gravy!  Here's what my Pokemon look like...

4 Nidoran Male
3 Nidorino
2 Nidoking
4 Scyther
4 Chansey
2 Ditto

Your trainers need some work as well.  While  Scoop Up is a must, your deck is in dire need of card drawing...Bill, Oak, and Computer Search will ensure you can set your combo up early of stalling with Chansey/Scoop and building Nidoking for the kill.  Energy removal will help slow down your opponent...here's my trainer picks...

4 Bill
2 Professor Oak
4 Energy Removal
4 Scoop Up
3 Computer Search

20 Leaf Energy
4 Double Colorless Energy

I think this final version will greatly improve your Win/Loss record due to it lessens your weakness to Fire and gives you more reliable attacking and Trainer options. 

Hopt this helps...have fun!
