Yanmega SV?

What are your opinions on Yanmega SV? It carries a built in energy accelerator, meaning more often than not within a turn it can punch out 60 damage consistently, and while it doesn't share Kingdra's spread power, it certainly gives the potential to send out high amounts of damage, especially with the no retreat cost. Do you guys think Yanmega + Pluspower / PokeBlower / whathaveyou might be seeing some play?

No retreat cost = 2 Speed Boosts when swarming, plus energy drop.

Any thoughts?

Mmm... I expect to see it with Shaymin Ground Forme Lv. X as the most obvious combo. That's about it at the moment... after a single Wind Return it needs refueling.

I think it was Catbus who made a list a long time ago. It was called Dragonfly Bonsai. I'll search it and post the link here.

Edit: Here's the link: http://pokegym.net/forums/showthread.php?t=99507&

Catbus caused a good stir with that build, I made one similar to it (you'll see my build in the thread) - along with some great ideas. Catbus also linked an article about Yanmega from pokebeach.

This deck NEEDS to run Exploud over Tangrowth or Nidoqueen. Shaymin will get brought up with Lux and killed off with Blaze or Infernape otherwise, while Yanmega suffers weakness from Luxray directly.

I like this with Shaymin Lv X (Land Forme). Use Seed Flare to get heaps of energies onto Yanmega, then return them with Yanmega's first attack. Exploud could help their horrible fire/lightning weakness.
