What to make of it

Have a look at what it does well, then at what will get in your way. After that you'll know whether it belongs in your deck.

A strength
It retreats for free. You can pull it back to the Bench whenever you like, even with no Energy on it at all.
A strength
It has an Ability, Sweet Sleeping Face. An Ability costs you no attack, so you can use it and still swing the same turn.
A strength
It is a Basic Pokémon. You can put it down on your very first turn, with nothing to evolve through.
A strength
No Weakness printed on the card. Nothing doubles up the damage it takes.
Keep in mind
None of the 7,692 tournament lists we have read runs it. That does not make it a bad card — it means we have not seen it on a table yet.
