Is Manectric good in Standard?

Its hardest-hitting attack is Riotous Blasting on Mega Manectric ex (Mega Evolution), doing 200+ for 3 Energy. The bulkiest version is Mega Manectric ex with 330 HP, but it gives up 3 Prize cards when Knocked Out. 2 versions have free retreat, which makes Manectric easy to switch in and out. Watch out for Fighting attackers — that's its weakness.
