My reviews are ratings are for Modified only.

Aggron ex CG

Modified (DX-on): 2/5 - I think Mega Burn's drawback is significant, and Split Bomb is good, but still not the same as Dark TTar's Spinning Tail. With Dark TTar's Spinning Tail, you can win by constantly doing 20 damage to everything in consecutive turns, followed by ATM: [Rock]. You could certainly use Split Bomb, and get One-Hit KOs, but I think you could run into big ex Pokemon with more than 130 HP.

Its Poke-Body is okay - I don't think its Poke-Body is useful enough in a format that is dominated by evolutions though.
 

Computer Guy Aggron ex from Crystal Guardians.

Aggron ex is a very powerful card. It has loads of HP, stops basic pokemon from attacking, has an attack that can hit the bench, and has an all out powerful attack. Also has a resistance to grass. On the downside he has 2 weaknesses, 4 retreat cost and is a stage 2.

Survivor We take a look today at one of my favorite Pokemons, Aggron.

The card: Aggron EX got 150 HP. That's really nice. Seeing that not too many

Pokemons have HP over 150. Also Aggron EX is a Metal Pokemon. That mean it
can benefit from Metal Energy. That mean it will take your opponent a hard
time to knock him out. Fire and Fighting weakness are not a good thing.
Double weaknesses have never been good. You just have to work around it. The retreat cist for Aggron EX is really big. 4 reatreat cost? I don't think you

want to pay for that. We do have Switch and Warp Point which will help you
retreat Aggron EX. A grass resistance is a nice thing. It could help you
against these Meganium EX decks that be popular in the next format.

The Attacks: first, let's look at Aggron EX Poke-Body, Intimidating Armor.
It's really nice. Once you put Aggron EX active could stop your opponent's
Basic Pokemons Poke-Power/Body and attacks. It really could help you against

Mew EX. Also it will make you auto-win against Lunasol decks.

Let's look now at Aggron EX attacks. It's first attack is Split Bomb. It's a

good attack. For 3 Colorless energies you can do 30 damage to two of your
opponent's Pokemons. You could use this attack to do heavy damage to your
opponent's benched Pokemons. With Aggron EX 150 HP, you could Split Bomb for a long time.

Aggron EX second attack is Mega Burn. Even though the attack takes two Metal energies to use, but with Holon's Castform and Holon's Electrode, you have
no problem. 100 damage for 4 energis is nice, but the problem is you can't
use the attack next turn. That's why you should be careful when you use this attack.

Modified: This card is really good here. I don't think it will break the
format, but it will see some play. If you have him, try to use him. 4/5

Limited: I think it's hard to play this card, but if you get all of his
evolution lines try to use him. His big HP will allow you to SPlit Bomb for
a long time in Limited. 4/5
