I quite like it. You can even use max pot and get the energies up again. Too bad about the weakness though.

i can't believe what i'm going to say... but i think this is a playable incineroar. un-believable.
No one realised it's ability is once per turn and not just when you evolve? Max potion with energy recycler in this deck is dumb...
That card looks insane, can't wait to use it.
130 isn't enough... Shame, because I love Incineroar and the ability is amazing
It's a little odd that this Incineroar-GX for SM8a is getting revealed ahead of SM8's Tyranitar GX, and that they're putting out 2 Stage-2 Dark-type GXs with only a month between them.
The card itself is interesting. I reckon the ability more or less sells the card, and it's rather creative that the GX attack that interacts with the damage counters it places on itself. I guess it could go in a Zoroark GX deck with Rare Candy, in which the Zoroarks set up the Incineroar-GX, and then the Incineroar-GX accelerates energy onto itself ... of course it's fodder for Fighting-types, though it looks decent otherwise.

Incineroar-GX -> Scar Charge -> Attack -> Scar Charge -> Nanu -> Guzzlord-GX -> Glutton-GX
Stupid strategy to use with Incineroar-GX.

But I want Absol GX!!!!!! *throws temper tantrum*
It’s really good! I love 2HKO decks, and this one comes with special Energy denial. 220 HP? OK. Ability: SUPREME! Attack: Good! GX Attack: SUPREME! Incineroar is gonna be good!
*cough* weakness policy *cough**cough* sledgehammer *cough*
If they can't do 220 damage you can at least just Max Potion, then find some new energies (Energy Recycler/Recycle System would probably be useful there too).
If we get a Pokemon that can move dark type energys this could be great, otherwise it still could work quite well
There is def a lot of potential here, but baby-buzz destroys this thing.
We reported a while ago that there would only be an Absol in this set, not an Absol-GX. :x
To sum up this, sweet, innocent card:
Can be attacking by turn two.
Has 250 HP, so pretty tanky.
Can use ability to spam max potion.
With the new stadium coming out, it only gives up one prize card.
Can fuel up it's GX attack with that ability.
Can do 1210 damage if at ten HP.
The power creep is real.

220 hp that goes for two shots is better than golisopod and the gx attack is way better.
The question is: does that compensate for being a stage 2? I'm not sure. 220 isn't really better than 210 when it comes to 2 shots, and while it does make you less vulnerable to a 1shot, the only Mon hitting that hard is buzz, who doesn't give a fudge.
It's important to note that incineroar doesn't need to use your attachment for the turn, so you can use that on something else, hypothetically. Can't imagine how that helps just yet though.
