Anyone have thoughts/experience on teaming up Dragapult with Charizard?

I’ve been picking up pieces to build Dragapult/Dusknoir as it has a lot of crossover with my Charizard deck, and I just noticed several people brought a Drag/Charizard deck to the Birmingham regional. (Example: https://limitlesstcg.com/decks/list/15283)

Anyone have experience with it? Is it just using two separate win cons while sharing an ability to find energy? Or is Dragapult more of an alternative draw engine to Pidgeot while also having more offensive use?

I played a list to 6-3 at Baltimore Regional in September. Lost a round to my being new at the game.

The deck is honestly good, no Pidgeot, Drakloak is your engine. I ran unfair stamp and probably still would.

Mela and now Crispin probably have to be 1 ofs. Downside is no room for Duskull line.

I can share the list if you want it.

That’d be great thanks.
