Tips for balancing energies, trainer cards, and Pokemon

I am having a lot of trouble finding the right balance for my Arcanine deck.

My current list runs 15 fire energy, 18 pokemon & 27 trainers.

You can find the full deck list on my YouTube channel.

you should have around 15 Pokemon 15 energy and 30 trainers in most decks, swap cards out if you're playing decks that need more or less energy

You do not need 15 energy in most decks. It's more like 4-12 normally. You only see more than that in acceleration-heavy decks.

You should almost always be running more than 4 energy unless you're playing certain specific builds of control. Usually you should be running between 8-14 energy\
