Yes, absolutely. Charizard and Miraidon both get completely dumpstered by this card. Those are the big ones, but you've got stuff like Gardevoir ex, Mew ex, Chien-Pao ex, Gholdengo ex and more, all of which Iron Thorns ex greatly hinders. The attack is very Energy efficient, conserving an Energy in case of a KO, and as a Future Pokemon its damage can be boosted with Cobalt Command.
 
Thank you for the input. Glad to see Iron Thorns ex has more potential then I realized.

It's good, but it's not infallible. As soon as they can force it out of the Active Spot - via Prime Catcher, Boss's Orders, Iron Bundle, whatever - they'll get their Abilities back. Still, the lock is good enough that it'll definitely see play.

That's good enough for me. I'm already playing Future Box
 
I like how klefki and flutter mane counter this, and it's inclusion into the meta.
