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 has an Ability, Crisis Muscles. An Ability costs you no attack, so you can use it and still swing the same turn.
Keep in mind
None of the 8,705 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 Machoke to get here, or find a Rare Candy to skip the middle step.
Keep in mind
Weakness Psychic ×2. Against a Psychic Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 8,705 tournament lists we have read, 5,169 run at least one Pokémon of that type.
Keep in mind
Mark F. It is not among the marks currently accepted in Standard: H, I, and J. A legal reprint may still provide an exception.
