A few things you forgot to cover;

Pokemon Breeder (PB) allows you to evolve straight
from a Basic to a Stage 2.  You don't have to wait the
extra turn.

True, PB doesn't make much sense in a deck where you
have only 1 TYPE of Stage 2 Pokemon.  It's roughly
equivalent (or less) to the Stage 1 in this case.
HOWEVER, if you have 2 or more TYPES of Stage 2
Pokemon, remember you can use the PB on BOTH.  Which
is to say, the PB can work with ANY Basic and its
appropriate Stage 2.  In my opinion, this doubles the
effectiveness of the card (and your deck!)

Using PBs in your deck is somewhat useless if you only
have 2 Stage 2 cards in your deck (total) and no
'search engines'.

In MY opinion there are only two decks that make
EXCELLENT use of the PB card.  These decks are mainly
Grass or Water (because they have the most Stage 2
Pokemon) with a Charizard (yeah, yeah, I know) thrown
in and no fire energy.
