Farfetch'd!?!

I don't understand why this guy isn't used very much. 1st turn 30?! Resistant to Fighting, can knock out shuppet with a plus power. Weak to electric but still, you never have to use more than 1 energy on him. What am I not seeing?
 
Probably because he's useless after turn 2. 60 HP means he's probably dead shortly after that, and he has zero mid- or late-game viability.

He has the early game donk and that's it. Beyond that, he's just a free prize card for your opponent.
 
With many basics getting 70HP now, even a turn 2 60 from Farfetch'd isn't even a threat. This card would have been decent Pre-DP, but the HP curve after DP just ruined it imho.
