Looking to refine dark type turbo deck

Hey y'all, I've been playing with this deck as my first deck on pokemon live, with plans to transition it to paper to play in local league events. I'm pretty new to pokemon, but played MtG for a while. Without further ado, here's the list:

Pokemon: 21

3x Okidogi Ex

2x Pecharunt Ex

1x Latias ex

2x Mega Sharpedo Ex

2x Carvanha

3x Toxel

2x Toxtricity

2x Dunsparce

2x Dudunsparce

2x Monkidori

Trainers: 25

2x Brock's training

2x Lillie's Determination

3x Team Rocket's Petral

1x Judge

2x Bosses Orders

2x Janiene's Secret Arts

3x Binding Mochi

2x Ultra Ball

3x Night Stretcher

2x Energy recycler

1x Precious Trolly

2x Gravity Mountain

Energy: 14

14x Dark Energy

When the deck works, it works really well. Toxel let's me pull out the pecharunt and okidogi, with Toxtricity and Janiene's, I can get three energy in a turn and consistently hit for 300 with mochi. Sharpedo is an alt attacker for fighting decks and hits for 310 under the same circumstances, but requires an evolution which is on par with the charging attack on Okidogi in terms of efficiency. Brock's helps me find pieces to complete the board state. I'm struggling a little with consistent draws and dead hands. It's not always a problem, but given my goal is to be blowing stuff up before my opponent is ready, I fall off if I'm not calling the pace. What are weak spots you can identify or possible redundant pieces? I'm not a huge fan of the Dudunsparce line, but it can be clutch, and I didn't want to cut more draw, given that seeing more cards helps me.

Happy to provide additional information as to how it plays, and if anyone has deck building principles I may be lacking on to share, I'd be grateful. Thanks for your time and feedback :)
