That would not change between going first or second. Right now the vast majority of the game material suffers when going first. It's an indicator of game balance issues if only a few cards work going first. Misty is the only card that can overcome the first turn detriment. Starting with an energy but one less card would…

I would agree, I believe turn 1 you should gain an energy but not draw a card.

Factually, gaining energy on turn 1 would not change that at all. The only real benefit of turn 1 is drawing a card, which is immensely less helpful than gaining an energy. Denying a card draw on turn 1 would arguably be more balanced because it is less likely that you can draw an evolution, helping check that benefit.
