Standard New to the Game (Primal Groudon EX / Wobbuffet)

I would drop the Fan Club for a Trump Card, is great way to retrieve your energy back and to cut out decks like Night March or Flareon, for example.

If your problem is energy, maybe add 1 Landorus, just in case you need it.

Maybe add some disruption like an Enhanced Hammer now that almost everyone runs special energy.
 
I have since updated my build scraping up whatever I could find -

Pokemon:

  • 4 Wobbuffet
    3 Groudon EX
    2 Primal Groudon EX
Trainers/Supporters/Stadiums:

  • 4 Korrina
    4 Professor Sycamore
    2 Lysandre
    2 Shauna
    2 N
    1 Colress

    3 VS Seeker
    2 Ultra Ball
    2 Switch
    2 Hard Charm (I'm not too sure. I like focus sash, but considering I want to keep Wobbuffet active as long as possible, this feels like the better choice)
    3 Mega Turbo
    1 Pokemon Fan Club
    1 Battle Compressor
    2 Professors Letter
    1 Scramble Switch
    1 Float Stone

    2 Silent Lab
    2 Scorched Earth
    2 Fighting Stadium
Energy:

  • 4 Strong Energy
    8 Fighting Energy

If I could get ahold of Acro Bikes, I would be running 4. I have played this kind of build since first posting this thread, and I still didn't do very well. Though, I can definitely see that Wobbuffet has a huge impact in slowing down games, because of the prevalence of Shaymin. After that, I fiddled around with the build a little bit, focusing on what was causing me to lose games. I found I just simply could not get enough energy no matter what, so I added another Professors Letter, and one more Fighting Energy. I am considering running one more Lysandre, particularly for the Seismitoad matchup. But I'm not sure if that's overkill.

Let me know what you guys think.
How could you not get enough energy? I don't want to sound mean but why is that the big question beginners ask all the time? Are you making the right in-game decisions?
Your list looks fine I just prefer 4 N with 1 Shauna but that's just me. Shauna refreshes your hand. You also run Korrina which can get Professor's Letter. And 12 energy is good enough for the deck. More enegy will result in less consistency because we will have to remove more Trainers.

Also, take out Silent Lab. You do know it hurts Wobbuffet and has no place in this deck. Replace it with 1 more Scorched Earth and 1 more fighting Stadium. If you can take out another card, you can have another Mega Turbo. The combo is discard energy and use Mega Turbo to accelerate energy onto Primal Groudon. Will that help your energy problem?
 
I would drop 1 fighting stadium for another scorced earth, because you have mega turbo you want to get energy in the discard pile so I think it's better to run 3 scorced earth, also because you can draw 2 cards if you discard an energy
