If Virbank were in the set, this could have been playable. Alas, it's not, so it's just another filler card :/

As stated above, Skuntank is kind of waiting on the next set's Virbank Gym, which will increase poison to do around 30 damage each turn, plus the base damage, which Dark Thorn would bump up to 40. In addition to the flippy defensive maneuver, it's really a great attack for :dark:. Not necessarily useful considering how many retreat techs there are which would nullify the effects, which you opponent is assured to do considering they'll also want to nullify the poison. Good for Catchering up Eelectricks and ensuring a KO if they can't pull a :colorless::colorless: or Switch.
