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
210 HP. Only 3 cards in Celestial Storm carry more.
A strength
Retreat cost 1. One Energy to discard and it is back on the Bench, which matters a lot on the turn you need to swap attackers.
A strength
It has an Ability, Danger Perception. An Ability costs you no attack, so you can use it and still swing the same turn.
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 Fire ×2. Against a Fire Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 9,730 tournament lists we have read, 2,130 run at least one Pokémon of that type.
