Its Ability

Magnetic Flow

Once during your turn (before your attack), if Magneton is your Active Pokémon, you may flip a coin. If heads, choose 2 of your opponent's Pokémon that have Energy cards attached to them. Choose 1 of the Energy cards attached to each of those Pokémon and switch them between the Pokémon. This power can't be used if Magneton is affected by a Special Condition.

Its attacks

Steel Wave

This attack does 10 damage to each of your opponent's Benched Pokémon that are the same type (color) as the Defending Pokémon. (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.

A strength
It has an Ability, Magnetic Flow. An Ability costs you no attack, so you can use it and still swing the same turn.
Keep in mind
None of the 9,387 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 Fire ×2. Against a Fire Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 9,387 tournament lists we have read, 2,069 run at least one Pokémon of that type.
