== ALLERGY PANIC (Vileplume - BW: Boundaries Crossed)

Q. If Vileplume's "Allergy Panic" Ability is in effect, does Rayquaza's "Shred" attack consider a Defending Pokemon's weakness as x2 or x4?
A. Although Shred does not ignore Weakness, it does ignore the x4 effect from Allergy Panic. (Feb 28, 2013 TPCi Rules Team)


== GARBOTOXIN (Garbodor - BW: Dragons Exalted)

Q.If my Lugia EX knocks out an opponent's Garbodor with the "Garbotoxin" Ability and a tool attached, does Lugia EX's "Overflow" Ability turn on in time for it to take two prizes?
A. Nope, Garbotoxin is still active when Garbodor is KO'd, so Lugia EX does not get to take 1 more prize card for Overflow. (Feb 28, 2013 TPCi Rules Team)


== MOON GUIDANCE (Clefable - BW: Plasma Storm)

Q. If I have two Clefables in play, can I use "Moon Guidance" twice on the same Pokemon assuming I flip heads for both?
A. Yes, you can. (Feb 28, 2013 TPCi Rules Team)


== OVERFLOW (Lugia EX - BW: Plasma Storm)

Q.If my Lugia EX knocks out an opponent's Garbodor with the "Garbotoxin" Ability and a tool attached, does Lugia EX's "Overflow" Ability turn on in time for it to take two prizes?
A. Nope, Garbotoxin is still active when Garbodor is KO'd, so Lugia EX does not get to take 1 more prize card for Overflow. (Feb 28, 2013 TPCi Rules Team)

== COLRESS MACHINE (BW: Plasma Storm)

Q. If I have four Plasma Energy in play, either on the field and/or in the Discard Pile, can I use Colress Machine to search through my deck, find nothing, and shuffle my deck?
A. Yes you could use Colress Machine, because the game does not deduce the contents of a deck based on public knowledge such as the discard pile or cards in play. (Feb 28, 2013 TPCi Rules Team)


== VIRBANK CITY GYM (BW: Plasma Storm)

Q. If a Pokemon has a poison condition that places more than one damage counter per turn, like from Crobat's "Ultra-Toxic Fang" attack, does Virbank City Gym work or not?
A. Yes, it works. You place 4 damage counters for Crobat's "Ultra-Toxic Fang", then you place 2 more for Virbank City Gym making a total of 6 counters placed. (Feb 28, 2013 TPCi Rules Team)
