Its Ability

Summon Minions

When you play Dark Dragonite from your hand, search your deck for up to 2 Basic Pokémon and put them onto your Bench. Shuffle your deck afterward.

Its attacks

Giant Tail

Flip a coin. If tails, this attack does nothing.

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
70 HP. Only 1 cards in Team Rocket carry more.
A strength
Giant Tail hits for 70 on 4 Energy. Nothing in Team Rocket hits harder for that price.
A strength
It has an Ability, Summon Minions. An Ability costs you no attack, so you can use it and still swing the same turn.
A strength
No Weakness printed on the card. Nothing doubles up the damage it takes.
Keep in mind
None of the 8,076 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.
Keep in mind
It is a Stage 2. You have to come through Dragonair to get here, or find a Rare Candy to skip the middle step.
