Very good with Gothitelle.

It was OK with Goth, but in my testing it just decks you out faster, something that Gothitelle players needed to be wary of, even though it may not seem like it. Same goes for ross, I think.

In CaKE or with Conkeldurr
Made some decent decks.

Honestly, I’ve been thinking of playing him in a Lugia LEGEND deck for the lulz.

My cousins and I dub him “suicide Electrode.”
Never been a fan of the card other than CaKE decks – but I love the artwork. One of my favorite original Pokemon. Especially the shiny version, swooon.

There’s a good number of Electrode cards from older sets that also kill themselves as some form of energy acceleration. “Suicide Electrode” doesn’t begin to narrow it down.

I only recently started playing the TCG. (Well, recently – about the end of MD-on) I didn’t pay a whole lot of attention to cards like that because I was new to the game. Holon’s Electrode was pretty cool, I remember that one, but it didn’t kill itself (I don’t think.) I wasn’t really trying to narrow it down, just making a joke. But okay.
