This looks really good for lots of decks. This could really help agaisnt sniping decks i'm guessing. Any thoughts?

It's alright... IMO, Nidoqueen RR does the same job much better. Of course, 'Queen's a Stage 2, and Chimecho's a basic. It has potential, but I don't see it going too far.
 
Palkia G Lv. X one-shots it, and you have to be active to attack. I call it the "poor man's Nidoqueen".
 
The whole 70 HP thing kind of kills it. I mean, any self-respecting spread deck will have SOMETHING in the wings that can deal 70 damage. Also, thanks to Nidoqueen, spread isn't huge anymore, which means that Chimecho will often be a dead card.
 
For everything in the Format requiring two or even less Energy to attack, this card isn't good at all. It does nothing to Uxie/Azelf/Crobat G (decent snipe targets) as well, limiting his usefulness.

dmaster out.
 
I don't get how this is even worth consitering. No card in the format should have more than 4 energy attatched to it at once (Usually 3 w/gain), and most of those have a good amount of HP. Even if they had low HP, a pokemon with 4 energy attached should be able to get an easy prize for a expensive attack. Tecks rarely have energy, and the occasional 1 energy will get chimeco no where. Nice job at being open-minded, but this is doomed. Not to mention unown G.
 
it still heps against sniping a pokemon with a large number of energy in play like azelf lv.x did, right?
 
Azelf Lv. X does the same job, but better. Since a lot of decks run Azelf LA, this would be the call as a tech over Chimecho. IMO, Chimeco's not that good.
 
The weakness to one of the only good spread decks around (Gallade) totally ruins it.
Also, vegitalian, it's the 1st attack that's good, not the 2nd.
 
Who tried comparring this to Azelf Lv.X?

Azelf X hits for EVERY ENERGY YOUR OPPONENT HAS to one Pokemon.

Chimecho hits for every energy on the Pokemon you hit.

Not even comparable. Claydol - 0 energy. Opponent - has 8 energy in play. Azelf = Useful, Chimecho, not so much >_>
 
^I don't. The fact that it heals itself too makes it far more superior than Wash Rotom, Vaporeon MD or Mesprit LV.X.
