You can find the decklist for this deck by clicking here. The deck doesn't have an intended strategy to it beyond "play some Pokémon, smash face," but that's how most of the early preconstructed theme decks worked. Beyond that, it's more likely that these cards will be acquired to be collected rather than played with nowadays, which is absolutely a-OK! Furthermore, according to the item's auction listing on Heritage Auctions' website:

Prepare for trouble! And make it double! This sealed theme deck is from the Team Rocket Set and features our favorite evil duo on the cover, Jessie and James! The deck includes 60 cards, 1 Pokémon coin, 10 damage counters, and 1 rule book everything you need to take over the world! The box has lightly blunted corners with wrapping is intact. The overall condition is Excellent.
