I know that this is the absolute most basic of questions, but I need to ask anyway... Can pokemon with "Team Magma's" designation (i.e. Team Magma's Baltoy) evolve into pokemon without the "Team Magma's" designation (i.e. Claydol from GE)? I know that pokemon with the "Dark" designation can...

Like Rage (counters on my attacker).

Yes. That is what I am looking for. Similar to Butterfree Parallel Drain but with damage done also based on current damage counters.

Is there any Pokemon (including from non-Modified sets) that has an attack that either places damage counters or does straight damage based on the number of damage counters that are already on the attacking pokemon AND then removes a number of damage counters (either as part of the attack or as...

1. Can I use Wally's Training to go get a LvX upgrade? Wally's Training Search your deck for a card that evolves from your Active Pokemon (choose 1 if there are 2) and put it on your Active Pokemon. (This counts as evolving that Pokemon.) Shuffle your deck afterward. 2. Can I use Bebe's Search...

Also, if my opponent is playing Aerodactyl (Fossil) Prehistoric Power - No more Evolution cards can be played. This power stops working while Aerodactyl is Asleep, Confused, or Paralyzed., is it still worth it to play BTS?

1. I am confused by a couple rulings in the Compendium. Are the two rulings listed below not contradictory? If not, could somebody talk me through the nuance that I am missing? Also, how would Pokemon Breeder interact with the powers/poke-bodies listed below? Q. Does Rare Candy override...

Chaos Gym - Whenever a player plays a Trainer card other than a Stadium card, he or she flips a coin. If heads, that player plays that card normally. If tails, the player can't play that card. If the card isn't put into play, the player's opponent may use that card instead, if he or she does...

Rare Candy: Choose 1 of your Basic Pokemon in play. If you have a Stage 1 or Stage 2 card that evolves from that Pokemon in your hand, put that card on the Basic Pokemon. (This counts as evolving that Pokemon.)* Is this not the same as Pokemon Breeder?? If so, do I need both? If so, what...

My opponent and I are just getting back into the game. We have agreed to build 2 decks of each color to replace our circa 1999 decks. We are not playing in tournaments (or even at the local store for that matter). Just against each other, but we are both very competitive. There are so many...

A good idea. But my daughter is old enough that she would not be caught dead playing outside our home (I have to put the cards in the basement whenever somebody comes over). :) So, it is just us. Still worth it to me as I enjoy the face time.

Makes sense. But is this information not documented somewhere online in an actual rulebook (not just buried in a FAQ/Compendium)? Back to back posts merged. The following information has been added: For example, what do all these levels mean? And what is leveling-up? And What is...

Thanks. I saw that but it did not seem complete (accurate?). What happens at the start of the game if one or more players does not have a basic? What restrictions exist on 1st player on first turn. These ommissions made me question what else was missing.

Are the official current rules posted somewhere online? Not just a summary but the actual rules?

Can anybody point me to a concise summary of how the game has evolved/changed since 2003? There seem to be quite a few terms, types of energy, concepts, rules, etc. that are new to me after my daughter and I have been away from the game for so long.

If Carnivine really isn't a very powerful card in the current environment, then we really do need to familiarize ourselves with more newer cards. Is there a spreadsheet somewhere online that lists all the cards and the stats/powers for each card that I could download and browse through?

My daughter played the Carnivine and basically destroyed 6 of my pokemon in 6 turns (none of my guys was bigger than 60). It just seemed insane that it could literally clear the board for 2 energy and one being colorless. Again, we do not have hardly any of the (what I am assuming are bigger...

My daughter and I have started playing again after taking 5 years off. We are playing with mostly our old cards. However, we do have a few new cards and are not even sure how some of this new stuff works. 1. There is a card called Cherubi that has an attack called Nap. We cannot understand...
