im pretty sure nobody started a thread about this card but on bulbapedia i found a beast card that has a high potential for our next format that i think would be a great donk deck

accelgor; grass type 90 hp
:colorless:acid spray 20
if you flip a heads, discard an enrgy attached to the defending pokemon.
(but wait, there's more)
:grass: slashing strike 60!!
this pokemon cant use SLASHING STRIKE during your next turn

the only bad thing is donphan prime might still be better. maybe this could be good with jumpluff hgss
vs donphan
pros: it doesnt do damage to benched which could be good and bad because donphan helps machamp
it has another decently helpful attack for 1 :colorless: energy
cons: donphan has more health+ a beast pokebody. its attack helps machamp prime.

donphan is probably all around better but i bet acccelgor could be beast with some other combo

ps: it is for the next set pretty sure
 
With seperior and another Accelgor.
60, retrait, 60, retrait, 60.
Even Potion could work right with that card haha
 
It isn't very hard to hit 90 turn two even without weakness, where as you will be hitting 60, ohkoing nothing, but being ohko'd by much. Just a though, what makes phan great is specifically how hard it is to ohko him, even with weakness.
 
Hes not good by himself... I say he could be put with Yanmega, just to do some sort of attack if you cannot attack...
 
Let's look at the biggest threat to this card:

Accelgor's HP < 120 from Blue Flare.
Accelgor's Attack Damage < Reshiram's Health.
60 Damage = 160 Outrage return damage.
No special Body, no special Ability, no effective secondary attack.

Ergo, problem.

I hope I speak for many people when I say 'WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE?'
 
oh wow thanx for all these...um... wonderful comments... anyway ya i think it could be a mini donk to a serperior tank although i dont think it'd work that well. and it (as you guys said) has a bad fire weakness. it was really just a suggestion... just getting my creative juices flowing.

That's not a problem. Suggestions are what run the engine of progression.
 
I perhaps see this card as being a lead-card for decks that have a low damage output in the first couple turns, but that's it. Also, you should probably only run him in :grass: decks otherwise his effectiveness is further limited. It's only real advantage is being able to OHKO most starters and a weak disruption with energy.
 
maybe useful with crobat. i also like the idea of playing with yanmega as an off attacker. or using him while you set up your jumpluff. hes not an amazing card but i think he may see some use.
