I like this one. There's a the potential for some cheap late game damage with vengeance (flareon/weavile?). Heat Tackle is not a bad attack either, especially against Cobalion EX.

Glad we're covering all the Eeveelutions and even better that they're actually playable.

Could potentially pair with Exeggcute/Weavile variations, but you still need to have a LOT of Pokemon in the discard pile to get substantial damage out of Vengeance.

6/10; it's decent, but I still prefer Umbreon and Leafeon over it.

6.5/7, Vengence is rather good paired with Weavile. It good for late games.. Can't really combo with Exeggcute/Weavile deck since those deck only have little amount of pokemon

8/10 for Modified and Unlimited. I gotta admit I'm a little biased, this is my favorite card from Plasma Freeze (aside from Umbreon). Juniper and Ultra Ball make it easy for any deck to get Pokemon in the discard fast. Thundurus EX can attach a DCE you discarded earlier to Flareon too. You'll want to run enough Pokemon so that you can eventually 1-hit-KO EXs after you're set up for the late game sweep.

You may consider pairing it with Rayquaza or Rayquaza EX for extra discards. If you use Colress Machine/Plasma E., you may run Plasma Frigate so that Keldeo techs don't 1-hit-KO Flareon.

I could see Flareon being used very well in Unlimited with Misty's Wrath and Sage's Training, and of course Prof. Oak.

Love it. You could even up the count of pokemon in the discard pile with ones you will be using later by retrieving with Shadow Triad, I think. I am not 100% on the number of cards that let you discard but it wasn't too great a variety last I checked. Still, love open-ended stuff like this.

7/10
