Yes. :redface:
Those would be some of the "cons".
Not really; running a 70 HP Basic Pokémon just to block Bench damage isn't that appealing to me; before we had more
Mewtwo EX play; now we have T1 donks that can hits 70 without Weakness (though usually with
Hypnotoxic Laser and
Virbank City Gym). Decks committed to Bench damage will have a solid shot of forcing
Mr. Mime up front (via
Pokémon Catcher) and simply OHKOing it.
If by long overdue you meant several formats ago... actually then it would have likely been a lot better, and you are correct.
Why?
Remember, rogue does not exclude Pokémon EX; by its loosest definition it would include anything that goes against the norm, and even by strict standards it would allow lesser played Pokémon-EX or something that sees play but used in a new manner.
I think it will help some decks, but I really don't know if it will help established, played cards more than others.

Forgot about Attributes. So
Kuriboh would be Dark/Ghost.
