Can Mewbox make a comeback?

Well, we now know that the next format is BW-BW5. This being said, we lose a lot of decks. The one I really hate losing is Mewbox. I then saw that Mew EX is coming out, and that can make a Mewbox EX!! So, I was wondering, do you think that Mewbox EX could have a chance in the next meta, or would it just fall apart.

The Card

Code:
Mew-EX – Psychic – HP120
Basic Pokemon

Ability: Versatile
This Pokemon can use the attacks of all Pokemon in play as its own. (You still need the necessary Energy to use each attack.)

[P] Replace: Choose as many Energy cards attached to your Pokemon as you like, then reattach them to your Pokemon in any way you like.

When Pokemon-EX has been Knocked Out, your opponent takes 2 Prize cards.

Weakness: Psychic (x2)
Resistance: none
Retreat: 1

Thanks for your suggestions :)
 
With only 120 HP and the Pokémon-EX rule, I can't see Mew EX being its own deck in the next format.

I could see it as a tech in some other decks though. The Ability is a nice one and I like the attack as well. :)
 
Mew EX as stated will probably work in Accelgor. Another deck is Empoleon, but Mew can't make a deck on its own. Would autoloss Zekeels because they just take two prizes over and over.

120 is too brittle for an EX. As i said Zekrom KOs but so does Mewtwo with 2 energy (provided Mew has one,) Darkrai with Claw and Sp. Dark, etc. The card is just giving away two prizes.
 
Mew-EX is a good card in the wrong format. It's so versatile, but it's in a format where it doesn't have the best partners, and it's an EX in a format with high damaging attackers, Mewtwo-EX, and will be with the new Afro Bull.
 
But isn't that only because of the ruling on Prism? It seems to me that the discard is also "in play"...

I like it a lot. From what I've heard in Japan it helps a lot with Empoleon. I don't know how it would work, but I could see it being used as a one of in Garchomp because it could do 60 for one fighting energy.

It's a decent tech in Empoleon since it counters Mewtwo, but in Garchomp it's not worth the space or the two prizes since it doesn't get the extra damage from Altaria.
 
I would also run it in Hydreigon toolbox. With moving around Dark and Blend Energy, it could do some damage.

Could be. Would allow Hydreigon/Darkrai to one-shot Mewtwo with something that wasn't Shaymin-EX.

Well, They'd just work around it (Catcher, and KO).

I don't see how Shaymin EX is so great as an attacker, when it's got lower HP if I recall correctly.

You use it lategame to sweep, usually after an N or something. It strips your opponent from any resources and allows Shaymin to safely take KO's without risking itself being KO'ed.
