I will leave this up for another day.

Pretty much useless in this format. The only way to help even play this card is through Research Record, which even that is unlikely.
CMT, Durant, and Tetrakion aren't effected at all, and Zekeels already has Eelectriks up by the time this gets into play 99% of the time.
Even if you can get Archeops into play before your opponent's Eelectriks, then it is very easy Catcher bait for Thundurus or Zekrom.
Reshiphlosion and Reshiboar are rarely played, and they can just Catcher Archeops as well.
The Truth is the only deck that can be effected. That deck is dead after DE is released, rarely played now, and if you don't get the Plume Fossil early then you can't for the rest of the game.
You can't even solve the Catcher problem, because when you pair it with Gothitelle or Vileplume, you are preventing yourself from evolving!
Once Dark Explorers is released, the new Stadium card gives it a bit of a better chance to get into play. Even then it is still easy Catcher bait, and the only tier 1-1.5 deck coming out will be Zoroark Rush, which evolves first turn anyway through Zorua's Ascension.
1/10.
