Hello! I am a new Pokemon trainer and this is my first Standard deck. I've changed this list around a lot but I'd like to get some more input.

Pokémon - 13

* 3 Turtonator-GX GRI 18
* 4 Volcanion STS 25
* 1 Staryu BKT 29
* 1 Starmie EVO 31
* 4 Volcanion-EX STS 26

Currently can't afford Tapu Lele but I am working on it and I think at least one goes in. I also think at least one Ho-Oh Gx goes in here but not currently since I don't have Lele to reliably get Kiawe.

rainer Cards - 33

* 2 Professor's Letter XY 123
* 2 Max Elixir BKP 10
* 2 Lysandre FLF 90
* 4 Professor Sycamore BKP 107
* 1 Switch SUM 132
* 1 Skyla BKT 148
* 2 Field Blower GRI 125
* 2 Guzma BUS 115
* 4 N NVI 92
* 3 Kiawe BUS 116
* 3 Choice Band GRI 121
* 2 Float Stone BKT 137
* 3 Ultra Ball FAC 113
* 2 VS Seeker PHF 109

Energy - 14

* 14 Fire Energy XYEnergy 4

Total Cards - 60

Please let me know any suggestions/thoughts!
 
You could defiantly drop one volacanion ex and one turtonator for the two lele. Drop one volcanion for the ho oh. Besides that looks like a solid list.
 
I would say that you need to choose who is going to be your main attacker: Turtonator GX or Volcanion? Both are good and viable, and until you get some Leles to search for the Kiawes, I would say that Volcanion is probably the better of the two. So drop two Turtonators for another Staryu and Starmie.

Also, you may want to play Brooklet Hills in place of your Ultra balls, as it helps against Garbodor and you don't have to burn resources.

I don't think you want Lysandre and Guzma since they do the same thing, so why not drop the Lysandres for two more Vs Seeker.

And finally, You should make one of your professor's letters another Max elixir, so it goes straight onto the pokemon instead, and the other should be a Float stone, since you have a bunch of heavy pokemon sitting on the bench.

Hope this helps.
 
lysandre and vs seeker are rotating out, so you can drop them out right away

-2 Lysandre
-2 VS Seeker
-1 N
-1 fire energy
-1 volcanion ex
-1 volcanion

+ 1 Staryu BKT 29
+1 Starmie EVO 31
+1 ho-oh gx
+3 Brooklet Hill
+2 altar of the sun

the fact that you dont have lele, doesn't mean you dont need 1 ho-oh gx, you wont use it to often but it will be precious for matches with water decks
also, maybe try and find place for 1 or 2 FFB
