Kind of a weird combo post. The full art is cool though not what I'm chasing in these packs.

I've been wondering since the new packs launched if anyone is playing these pokemon in decks? I've yet to see them online and afaik the CPU decks don't use them either.

If you're using them, how is the deck doing for you?

I like very specific cards like this in some way, but 160 damage for discarding all (at least three) energy just takes too long to set up like this, whilst also having two specific basics on your bench, keeping all three 70hp basics alive for long enough. Too many things to go wrong. Then even if you get that 160 hit off - what then? You'll have got one or two points hopefully, but then you're back to needing to build up another ko. It's a neat little gimmick, a bit like the Nidoqueen lovestrike from GA, but there's a reason you never see it in the wild.
