    Unown G vs. Machamp SF Take Out

    I've got a question regarding Stormfront Machamp's "Take Out" attack which reads "For one Fighting Energy, damage is 40, If the defending Pokemon isn't an evolved Pokemon, that Pokemon is knocked out instead of damaged by this attack". My understanding is that if it is evolved the attack does...

    Sceptile's Pokebody regarding retreat cost

    Sceptile's Pokebody states that each grass energy attached to your grass pokemon counts as two. Does this work for retreating as well as attacking? If it's two energy to retreat, would I be able to only dicsard one grass energy?

    Mightyena vs. Mewtwo Lv X

    Mightyena's attack states that your opponent can't use any poke powers during their next turn. Mewtwo Lv X has a poke body. Does that still work?

    Can I use the new Legends Awakened evoluter card to find a stage 2 pokemon to put on my basic (similar to rare candy) or do I have to get the stage 1 first?

    Buck's Training on attack that does no damage

    I've got a question for you. If you attach Buck's training to a Pokemon and that pokemon does damage to the defending pokemon, you add +10 damage. If you attack a pokemon with Buck's Training attached, and the attack only causes a special condition (ie sleep) but does no damage, does Buck's...

    Victreebel LA & Magmortar lv x Burn/Poison

    I've got a question for you. If I'm running a deck with Victreebel LA and Magmortar lvx, and I use Victreebel to poison and burn the defending pokemon, then switch to Magmortar lvx, does the burn damage increase to 30 with the poison still being in effect? Also, in converse, if I use...

    Gardevoir's Pokebody

    If you have Gardevoir in play and use it's pokebody to use the effect of a supporter in your opponent's discard pile can you still play a supporter from your hand during that turn since technically you only used the card's pokebody, and if you have more than one gardevoir in play, can you use...

    Hippopotas Sand Attack Clarification

    I have a question about the Sand Attack used by Hippopotas. The text states "If the defending Pokemon tries to attack during your opponent's next turn, your opponent flips a coin. If tails, that attack does nothing." If the defending Pokemon is evolved or switched with a benched Pokemon...

    Where's Plox now?

    I'm fairly new to these boards and still trying to get the terminology right. What is Plox?? I'm not sure what that means. I believe that G/G means a Gardevoir/Gallade deck.

If I have smeargle active and my opponent has a benched Magmortar with 5 fire energies on it and i trace that attack, what damage does it inflict? (flame blast does 20X...
