I will admit, it is a good bit of work at the beginning and does require a bit of upkeep (adding new, deleting old, editing, etc.), but the payoff (building teams without ever handling a figure, and changing decklists on the fly) is amazing to me
Between Traverse, Empath and the Survival of the Fittest Style cards green has plenty more creature tutor stuff than you could ever really need
Sorcery Color tag templates(None) Buried Alive Search your library for up to three creature cards, put them into your graveyard, then shuffle
Combine that with a damage doubler for +1/+1 counters and that's an extremely solid card to pump your creatures and give haste
Spiky Energy counts as neutral energy, but when your Active Pokmon takes damage, the attacker takes two damage counters
If you can get this creature card down fairly early on in the game, you've got a lot of opportunities for converting Energy counters straight into power and damage
