Its Ability

Plasma Search

Once during your turn (before your attack), you may search your deck for a Team Plasma card, reveal it, and put it into your hand. Shuffle your deck afterward. You may not use an Ability with the same name during your turn.

Its attacks

Mind Bend

The Defending Pokémon is now Confused.

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, Plasma Search. An Ability costs you no attack, so you can use it and still swing the same turn.
Keep in mind
None of the 8,405 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 Metang 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 8,405 tournament lists we have read, 4,990 run at least one Pokémon of that type.
