Going First/ Going Second

The elephant in the room is there is an obvious advantage to the beginning coin toss; and that is that you would want the coin to flip tails to go second. Your initial turn as second you get just as many draws and just as many opportunities to play cards, but as first you are an energy generation behind. If you run evolutions like I do, you can evolve faster than you put energy on, making it pointless to evolve if you're constantly behind besides making your pokemon able to tank the hits.

My suggestion to remedy this is; allow first turn to generate energy, but not draw a card. Many other card battle games use this set up because it's a small disadvantage but not a game changing disadvantage
