I'm debating whether to pick Black Eagles or Golden Deer, so I thought I'd share my class plans for the Black Eagles. Please feel free to share any suggestions on things I should fix. 

Black Eagles (I'm recruiting Lysithea, Mercedes, and Annette.)

Byleth: Commoner -> Monk/Myrmidon -> Priest/Mercenary -> Bishop/Hero/Swordmaster -> Holy Knight/Mortal Savant (Priest line when working up Faith magic, switch to Mercenary line after recruiting Lysithea, Mercedes, and Annette)
Annette: Noble -> Monk -> Mage -> Warlock -> Dark Knight
Bernadetta: Noble -> Soldier -> Pegasus Knight -> Paladin -> Falcon Knight 
Caspar: Noble -> Fighter -> Brawler -> Grappler -> War Master
Dorothea: Commoner -> Myrmidon/Dancer -> Thief/Dancer -> Assassin/Dancer -> Mortal Savant/Dancer (Thief line until Dancer class becomes available)
Edelgard: Noble -> Myrmidon -> Lord -> Warrior -> Wyvern Lord
Ferdinand: Noble -> Fighter -> Armored Knight -> Fortress Knight -> Great Knight
Hubert: Noble -> Fighter -> Archer -> Sniper -> Bow Knight
Linhardt: Noble -> Monk -> Dark Mage -> Dark Bishop -> Dark Knight
Lysithea: Noble -> Monk -> Mage/Priest -> Warlock/Bishop -> Gremory (Depends on what's needed)
Mercedes: Commoner -> Monk -> Priest -> Bishop -> Holy Knight
Petra: Commoner -> Fighter -> Brigand -> Wyvern Rider -> Wyvern Lord

Edelgard probably has her own personal Master Class, but if not, Wyvern Lord would probably work. (She's gonna need her own class to make use of her Reason rank, though).

@0 Def Cleric Yeah, for now I think I'll just go Wyvern Lord. I wish that War Master was not Male only. 

Also, is making Bernadetta a Pegasus Knight a good idea? Later on when I want to promote to Falcon Knight, the class will require Swords, which Bernadetta is weak at.

Bernadetta seems pretty much set for Bow knight.

Spoiler

I read she will get the "Pass" skill as well, If you train her hidden talent for riding (Source) which makes looks a pretty great combo, with Canto and range.

I'm going to be making her a Falcon Knight too. Getting a C in Swords over 30 levels shouldn't be that hard, even with a weakness. Of course, you could also try promoting her without reaching the requirements.

Byleth - Myrmidon > Mercenary > Hero > Personal Class(generic I know)
Dimitri - Soldier > Lord > Hero? > Personal Class(really don't know what to do with Tier 3 for him)
Dedue - Fighter > Brigand > Warrior > War Master(decided I'd rather go this route than the Great Knight route as he has a painful Armour Bane)
Felix - Myrmidon > Mercenary/Thief > Swordmaster/Assassin > Mortal Savant(with Reason Talent; I'd imagine after unlocking his boon in Reason he'll be a very decent spellcaster with this)
Ashe - Soldier > Cavalier > Paladin > Bow Knight(high Mov will mesh well with his personal skill
Mercedes - Monk > Priest > Bishop > Gremory(she's got Boons in both magic types and not much else so she'll be very good at focusing on the 2 magic types and getting Gremory effectively)
Annette - Monk > Mage > Warlock > Dark Knight(she doesn't have Boons in lance or riding so it'll be tough to crack but it should be fine)
Sylvain - Soldier > Cavalier > Paladin > Dark Knight(he is the cookie cut Dark Knight with his Lance and Riding boons and Reason Talent)
Ingrid - Soldier > Pegasus Knight > Paladin > Falcon Knight(she's perfect for this)

Transfers(Assuming there's only 2)

Lysithea - Monk > Mage > Warlock > Dancer(with Sword Talent and Authority Boon)
Ferdinand - Soldier > Armour Knight > Fortress Knight > Great Knight(his Boons and Talent are perfect for this)

First playthrough (Blue Lions, recruiting Linhardt, Marianne, Lysithea, and possibly Dorothea/Ferdinand):

F!Byeleth: Soldier > Mercenary/Brigand > Wyvern Rider > Wyvern Lord (I want to be a dragon rider with a spear and a sword, dammit!)

Dimitri: Soldier, Lord, ???, Personal Class (dunno what to do for third tier)

Mercedes: Monk > Priest > Bishop > Gremory?

Dedue: Fighter/Soldier > Brigand/Cavalier > Warrior/Paladin > War Master/Great Knight (depends on what I need)

Ingrid: Soldier/Myrmidon > Pegasus Knight > ??? > Falcon Knight (Tier three is a mystery at the moment)

Ashe: Fighter/Soldier > Cavalier > Paladin/??? > Bow Knight (archer classes maybe?)

Annette: Monk > Mage > Warlock > Dark Knight/Dancer

Sylvain: Soldier > Cavalier > Paladin > Dark Knight/Holy Knight

Felix: Myrmidon > Thief > Swordsmaster/Assassin > Mortal Savant (could go through either line)

Linhardt: Monk > Priest/Dark Mage > Bishop/Dark Bishop > HolyKnight/Dark Knight (depends)

Marianne: Soldier/Monk > Pegasus Knight > ??? > Falcon Knight/Dark Knight

Lysithea: Monk > Mage > Warlock > Gremory

If Dorothea: I want her as a Dancer if I don't choose Annette for that.

If Ferdinand: Soldier > Armor Knight > Fortress > Great Knight (I see others doing it and it looks really good!)

Just to clarify it's a riding bane, but I think that was just a typo on your part. Have you considered having Riding as one of your 2 focuses? If you set it as one then it will automatically reach B+ rank in riding in 10 months, which should be roughly master tier time. You wouldn't have to bother training riding and you can always assign him stable duty to speed it up if you want. It's the same thing you can do with a lot of skills that you can't be bothered to train.

Would Mercedes be a good fit for Holy Knight despite her weakness in Lance?

Anyone prefers Horse to Not A Horse, so yes. You could either do that or Gremory, but unless she naturally gets Physic, she'll lag behind the rest of your team.

She had Physic in all the "King of Beasts" previews, for what it's worth.

If you want Mercedes to get to a master class quick, gremory would be better since she is good at both reason and faith which is what gremory needs however she can work in holy knight. You might just need to make lances one of her focuses for a while and tutor her in it and riding (plus sending her to the stable since training her as a cav will be difficult since you'll need a healer and she's the best in Blue Lions being the only one good at Faith). As others have said, she has physic so she shouldn't fall behind too much, though healing from what we've seen doesn't give a lot of exp so it will be important to let her see combat sometimes too.

@Azz I think then I will go Gremory, because I forgot that we get Flayn who is good at Lances and Faith.

I'm picking the Black Eagles and I'm also recruiting Lysithea. Should she go down the Mage route or the Priest route? My class builds were posted earlier.

Flayn also happens to be bad at riding lol. Though again, shoving her in the stables should help rectify that.

Good, now that we have a bit of info I have a general idea of where to go:

Byleth - hopefully a canon class on foot? Otherwise it's between Holy Knight and Bow Knight, I'd have to see the male character models to decide (afaik we've only seen Bernadetta in those). If they're garbage then there's also the War Master option (looks cool, though I'd rather have pants), but I want my Byleth to be a heavily Lance focused unit, and I don't want to ever touch Gauntlets so I'd have to rely on faculty for those (and save scum the certification). Also with the recruitments he'd have to get good at basically everything, which is a stretch considering I'm playing on hard (no grind).

Edelgard - canon class, hopefully she's allowed magic? If not maybe Gremory.
Ferdinand - Great Knight
Dorothea - Dancer
Petra - Wyvern Lord (with bows)
Hubert - Dark Knight
Linhardt - idk, probably Holy Knight? I hope DLC classes come fast, we need some of these roles filled asap
Bernadetta - I don't really like her, so not sure if I'll use her. If it's the case then Bow Knight.
Caspar: the bench, and he's staying as a stinky noble. Or I'll just kill him off if he gets too annoying.

Recruitments (at least the ones I'll use for sure):
Sylvain - Dark Knight
Ingrid - Falcon Knight
Marianne - Holy Knight
Flayn - Gremory, though I have a feeling this will change once we see her ears...
Hanneman - Dark Knight (I mean what else can you do with these mages really?)

Also Lance focused Byleth will give me easy access to Ashe or/and Leonie if I end up liking them, if it's the case he's a Wyvern Lord (because goddam flying ranged thief is utility porn) and she's a Bow Knight.

Yeah... you can tell I'm not a fan of the variety in Masters... I end up with 3 Dark Knights and maybe 3 Holy Knights as well, which are basically the same concept. And that's without even counting other teachers/faculties/whatever that I might end up recruiting/using. Then again we'll have to see what portion of the game we end up playing with Master Classes, it might just be the later chapters.

Probably just gonna go with whatever canon classes the students are for my initial runs. Go with the flow and see what happens, basically.

If/When I ever get around to making a "personal" run, I may try to make my Byleth a Great Knight or maybe a Dark Knight.
