    Red dots on the trainer cards?

    The rules for what the dots stand for are in the quickstart guide. I can't find the rulings for the number of points allowed per game (a la 300 that a lot of people have mentioned).

    Question on surround

    Surround Question Part 2 If your piece is in the corner of the map and there are three adjacent locations (not two), I would assume you'd need 3 adjacent pieces to surround it, correct?

    Zangoose Ruling Required

    I'm not sure. See... there needs to be more clarity in the resolution of an attack after an effect that modifies damage. Does the dodge resolve, or does it fizzle (not resolving dodge, but resolving the initial attack), with the effect doing 0 damage because there was no damage to the attack...

    Question on the Resolution of Purple Attacks

    Ok, I just read the rulebook again and that makes sense. The first ruling I read was in reference to pushing (push as far as you can). The next one was in reference to teleport, saying you must move it that number of spaces or not move at all (that would make teleporting confusing in its own...

    Zangoose Ruling Required

    To Be Decided... Ok... after reading through the rulebook again, and letting it sink in for a few more days... I'll have to wait for an official ruling on the PTFG Web site or a future rulebook. Before I go into it let me restate the rulebook rule (pg. 8 "Altering Attacks): "Some effects...

    Question on the Resolution of Purple Attacks

    Just so I'm clear on this, a pokemon with a keyword has the option of resolving a purple attack and a pokemon without a keyword and just a listed effect must be resolved? In the rulebook, it said you must move the pokemon it's maximum number of spaces or not move at all. It said if you can't...

    New Method for Storage

    Well... that's a valid point, but if you're going to lug a case of 50-100 figures around it's going to be bulky. I thought of this idea as more of a deck box with the possibilities of storing more in another storage capacity (say a larger case in the shape of a mini-pc) along with the...

    Question on the Resolution of Purple Attacks

    Initially I thought you didn't get to choose, but under the rules for resolution of purple attacks it mentioned other movement related attacks like teleportation. It said you had to move the exact number of spaces it said or not move at all, which I interpret to mean you can choose. The...

    New Method for Storage

    Everyone has said what they use or think they should use for storage, but I think that Game Freak would be letting an obvious licensed storage choice go if they didn't do this... pokeballs. Now... In a three dimensional pokemon game, why would you not have pokeballs specially designed for the...

    Question on the Resolution of Purple Attacks

    I have a question regarding the resolution of purple attacks. When you spin a purple attack that beats your opponents, do you get to choose if the effect of that attack resolves? For example, I spin Meowth's purple attack that tells me to swap places with the defending pokemon. Now...

    Zangoose Ruling Required

    Answer After reading through the rules multiple times and letting it sink in for two days, I'm 99.9 percent positive that the ruling on Zangoose's "attack" - that has the "effect" "multiply" damage if you spin an attack that does damage - is that if you don't spin an attack that does damage you...

    Rules Questions

    Thanks Thanks for clearing that up. I probably should've interpreted the rules that way in the book, but I guess I looked for precise wording like "can only move 1 pokemon per turn." Appreciate the help. Does anyone else know the answer to the moving back rule? I'm a little confused as...

    Rules Questions

    I just picked up a few starters and boosters and played a few games. Then... I read over the rulebook, extensively. Its wording is very ambiguous and I'm looking for precise answers to certain ambiguities it raises. 1) What is the order of actions you can do on your turn? Is there an...
