Good Legacy decks:
Rayquaza EX/Eelectric NVI (or Ability Emboar BW)
Garchomp/Altaria DRX
Reshiram BW/Typhlosion Prime
Cobalion EX/Cobalion NVI/Plasma Klinklang
Keldeo EX/Blastoise (Deluge) - Feraligatr Prime could be used instead of Blastoise

How many decks do I have to pore through in order to get an idea of how to build a deck well? Theres been a lot of States, and a lot of decks in the T8s, so youre talking about 50+ decks to study. So, what all *do* these decks have in common?
Whenever the game tries to load up the data from the server, it will get to about 90% and then close. Is there any way to fix that?
ETA: I even tried uninstalling and reinstalling, and the game still spontaneously closes.
1. Retain Pokemon-Amie and Wonder Trade from the 6th generation games.
2. Get the ability to ride on Pokemon like a horse - not just fly on them.
3. Have a Dark-type Gym Leader. Finally.
4. Have Pokemon follow you - and make it optional if you want.
5. More character customization. Dress up your...

Problem is, all the really proven decklists are under paywalls, and I'm not willing or able to shell out money for a subscription. Where's a good source of proven decklists that won't cost me a thing?
I think I'm getting what you're saying, Otaku. But I'm still having problems getting decks set up and getting the momentum going, no matter what deck I play. What could I use in any deck that could fix this?
Building decks (at least the Trainer lines) is still confusing. I can get the Pokemon...
In general, what is the general strategy one should adopt when choosing what to discard, shuffle in, bring to the top of the deck, etc. How does one prioritize these things? I could use a few pointers here. (Bear in mind I don't have a set deck anymore.)
Point well taken.
What would you say is a ballpark estimate on amount of time/day I should practice? Just as an example.
I feel like if I get the general questions answered, then the specific ones will fall into place. Let the specific ones answer themselves when they arise.
Anyway, when...
