Prior to the introduction of the {{TCG|Modified format}}, this card ran rampant in decks mainly because of the ability to do up to {{tt|140 damage|6 Pokémon and 6 heads equate 120 damage. The effects of two actual Darkness Energy Special Energy cards brought the damage to 140.}} on the second turn provided a deck's setup went smoothly, combined with its zero Retreat Cost. When the first Modified Format ({{TCG|Team Rocket}} on) came into play, this Sneasel was specifically singled out and banned from the format. Later joined by {{TCG ID|Neo Genesis|Slowking|14}}, it would remain banned from the Modified Format until the Neo Genesis set was [[Rotation (TCG)|rotated out]] of the format in the second rotation. | Prior to the introduction of the {{TCG|Modified format}}, this card ran rampant in decks mainly because of the ability to do up to {{tt|140 damage|6 Pokémon and 6 heads equate 120 damage.
