Nice to see a deck review! Garchomp decks are really fun and cheap.

Here are some suggestions:

First, change the deck to Standard. Garchomp doesn't need or want Expanded cards.

Pokemon: 22
Gible Ultra Prism 4x - Keep
Gabite Dragons Exalted 2x - Change to the Ultra Prism one. It's better and Standard. Consider adding a third as well.
Garchomp Ultra Prism 3x -> 4x
Garchomp Dragons Exalted 1x -> 0x. The Similar logic to Gabite
Riolu Ultra Prism 2x - Keep
Lucario Ultra Prism 2x - Keep
Pikachu XY 4x - REMOVE
Raichu Generations 4x - REMOVE - you don't need to add a 2nd type here. Go with some more Fighting types. Or, if you need something cheap, add those Gumshoos from the theme deck.


Trainers:

Change the Juni's to Sycamores because Standard
Moar Candy
Add a couple Pal Pads
Kill the Timers, ad Ultras
Change the Muscle Bands to Choice Bands
Guzma > Lysandre
Then play around with the rest of the trainers to suit.

Energy:
Take out the blends, add more Fightings

Current good decks like Espeon and Ninetails can snipe the gibles when played down so bench protection like I think it's one of the mimes is important

The Mime with bench barrier is out of format
