Its attacks

Eruption

20+

Each player discard the top card of his or her deck. This attack does 20 damage plus 20 more damage for each Fire Energy card discarded in this way.

Fire Stream

Discard a Fire Energy card attached to Magcargo in order to use this attack. If your opponent has any Benched Pokémon, this attack does 10 damage to each of them. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.)

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.

Keep in mind
Retreat cost 3. Once it is out front, it stays there. Pack something that moves it another way, or you will burn whole turns discarding Energy.
Keep in mind
None of the 9,730 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
Weakness Water ×2. Against a Water Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 9,730 tournament lists we have read, 3,858 run at least one Pokémon of that type.
