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
Team Rocket's Spidops runs it in 3 of the 27 lists we have read, seen across 3 different tournaments.
A strength
It is a Basic Pokémon. You can put it down on your very first turn, with nothing to evolve through.
A strength
Mark I. It is one of the marks currently accepted in Standard: H, I, and J.
Keep in mind
It is an ex card. The turn it goes down your opponent takes 2 Prizes instead of one, and games do turn on exactly that.
Keep in mind
Weakness Lightning ×2. Against a Lightning Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 5,384 tournament lists we have read, 438 run at least one Pokémon of that type.
