It’s not powerful at all remember your energies have to be in the top 5 cards and how likely would it be to have your energies in the top 5 cards. Effects on other cards have been seen and not used.
I remember writing off the Evolving Skies Cryogonal as too slow and requiring your deck to be too clunky, but it ended up enabling the rogue celebrations Kyogre/Groudon deck which could steal wins off the best decks in Standard despite being super cheap to build... at least before the return of Bench Barrier which shut it down.
I want to write off this Smeargle too which is very similar (weaker attack as it looks at the top 5 instead of 6 and it also can't spread the energy acceleration to different targets, but in return it has a colorless attack cost), but I'd be happy to be wrong again.

Most of these effects have been on evolved Pokemon, and/or limited to a single type of Energy like Metal. It has always been too slow, this is an extremely power-creeped version of that attack and I believe the format is so ridiculously fast that it's STILL too slow. But it might have been playable a few years ago.
That Smeargle art be looking good

Its the fact that it has to be on the TOP 5 cards of the deck thats the matter. I personally i am never lucky with these things.
Damn the Smeargle alt art is a total chase card for me! I kinda wish it was paired with Mina though, that would've been epic
They're still giving us rainbow rares... I personally generally don't like them, but I can see the allure for kids. The FA trainers are way better!
They will not suddenly stop with the RRs when they've given us in every set so far. If they are gonna remove them, it would be at the start of a new yearly block, so maybe in Scarlet & Violet base.
I'll be pretty sad if they do away with the TG for gen 9. They really make sets so much more enjoyable to open and give that "wow" feeling of pulling a non-EX/V/etc that I felt during the early gens
FINALLY Smeargle gets something above a holo omg, one of my favorite Gen 2 Pokemon <3
That is one EPIC Full Art! ?
Smeargle is cryogonal but for colorless cost which means it won't be confined to just water energy decks, which is pretty cool. But top 5 is quite terrible. How many energies would you need to add in the deck for that attack to work. Or perhaps there will be new ways to arrange the deck that will make it viable, something like a reverse caitlin for supporter. I guess we'll see.
