Is Cinderace good in Standard?

Its hardest-hitting attack is Flare Strike on Cinderace ex (Scarlet & Violet Black Star Promos), doing 280 for 3 Energy. The bulkiest version is Cinderace ex with 320 HP, but it gives up 2 Prize cards when Knocked Out. 5 versions have free retreat, which makes Cinderace easy to switch in and out. Watch out for Water attackers — that's its weakness.
