Pokémon Power ⇢ Buzzap
At any time during your turn (before your attack), you may Knock Out Electrode and attach it to 1 of your other Pokémon. If you do, choose a type of Energy. Electrode is now an Energy card (instead of a Pokémon) that provides 2 energy of that type. You can’t use this power if Electrode is Asleep, Confused, or Paralyzed.

Flip a coin. If tails, Electrode does 10 damage to itself.

It stores electrical energy under very high pressure. It often explodes with little or no provocation.

Only 79%!? I’d suggest this for ANY Unlimited 150 deck…ANY!
Not only does it give you 2 energy in one turn (on top of your regular allowance) the prize loss can actually be used as an advantage, especially early on to trigger a Twins and start steamrolling. In a format with so much strong energy removal, having access in any deck to such powerful acceleration is essential.

normal unlimited is even less competitive

A Pokémon that works as energy… Is there another effect that works in a similar way? A trainer or an Ability with a similar rule?

I can think of a few other neat examples:
Holon’s Pokémon like Holon’s Castform can be played as either Pokémon or Special Energy.
There’s a Klefki card from Steam Siege (Klefki STS 80) that has an Ability that allows you to attach it as a Pokémon Tool card to 1 of your Pokémon, though you discard it at the start of your next turn.

Charjabug UNB is another example!
