Can you guys help improve this deck?
 
never run talonflame if you're not going to run 4 of them, the entire point of that card is to maximize the chance you start with it as a draw engine. You generally shouldn't be running it in a deck where you have this many other basics, it's most useful in a deck that only uses one other basic (greninja, typhlosion, ect) but you kind of need the search power to make this deck work.

anyways, I've run into decks like this on ladder a few times and never really felt that there was a good reason to use Togekiss as an energy accelerator over elixirs/dragons. And now there are a few other options including Dragonair SM and Solgaleo-GX. Your lack of xp share and FFBs will hurt your board staying presence quite a bit so you definitely need to include those. I understand why you don't want to use Sycamores/Shaymins since this deck kind of punishes you for drawing into it, but it's going to lead to a lot of inherent consistency issues compared to other variants.

A Shauna or two might be useful for shuffling high energy hands back into your deck, you'll want a lot of shuffle support so you can reset your deck before dropping another Togekiss to search out energy.
