POKEMON POWERS
----------------------------------------------------------------------
== BLOCK DUST (Vileplume Ex - EX:Hidden Legends)
Q. If Vileplume ex is placed active and there are Fossils on a player's bench, what happens to those fossils?
A. They stay where they are... Block Dust only affects non-supporter trainers being played from the hand. (Jul 7, 2005 PUI Rules Team)
== ENERGY GROUNDING (Lanturn - EX:Hidden Legends)
Q. If I KO one of my opponent's Pokemon, and he or she does not use Energy Grounding Poke-POWER before but instead draws a card to start the turn, at that point can Energy Grounding still be used for the KO'd Pokemon?
A. Once their turn has started, no. They can either move the Energy card before discarding the KO'd Pokemon, or discard the KO'd Pokemon and immediately take the energy card from the discard pile and attach it. (Jul 7, 2005 PUI Rules Team)
== RAI-SHIELD (Raichu Ex - EX:Emerald)
Q. Does an Emerald Raichu Ex Rai-Shield Poke-BODY protect a Sandstorm Raichu EX in the active from attacks that ignore effects on the defending Pokemon, like Fastwave?
A. Regardless of where the effect is generated, it is still an effect ON the defending Pokemon. It is ignored by Fastwave. (Jul 7, 2005 PUI Rules Team)

== REFLECT ENERGY (Milotic Ex - EX:Emerald)
Q. If I use Milotic Ex Reflect Energy attack, but have no basic energy attached or I have no benched Pokemon to move it to, does it still do damage?
A. Yes, you do as much of the attack as you can. (Jul 7, 2005 PUI Rules Team)

Q. Can you use Strike and Run, or Call for Friends type attacks to retrieve Fossils from your deck? What about using Pokemon Retriever to get them from your discard pile?
