== DITTO DNA (Ditto - DP:Legends Awakened)
Q. If Ditto is active against a Lv.X Pokemon, does it have access to the lower level Pokemon's attacks?
A. Yes, it does. The underlying Pokemon's attacks are part of the Lv.X and are therefore copied by Ditto DNA. (Sep 4, 2008 PUI Rules Team)
== REGI HEAL (Registeel - DP:Legends Awakened)
Q. Can you discard 2 cards from your hand with Registeel's "Regi Heal" Poke-POWER even if Registeel doesn't have any damage on it?
A. Yes, you can. (Sep 4, 2008 PUI Rules Team)
== REGI MOVE (Regice - DP:Legends Awakened)
Q. Can you discard 2 cards from your hand with Regice's "Regi Move" Poke-POWER even if the opponent's Defending Pokemon is not a Basic Pokemon?
A. Yes, but then you cannot switch the opponent's Defending Pokemon. (Sep 4, 2008 PUI Rules Team)
== SHOCKING TAIL (Electivire Lv.X - DP:Mysterious Treasures)
Q. If I use Groudon's "Drought" attack to attach two Basic Fighting Energy cards from my hand onto one of my Pokemon, but my opponent has Electivire Lv.X with "Shocking Tail" active, how many damage counters do I take, 2 or 4?
A. The attaching of energies is a single action, so you would only place 2 damage counters for Shocking Tail. (Sep 4, 2008 PUI Rules Team)

== PSYCHIC STRATEGY (Exeggutor - DP:Legends Awakened)
Q. If I have no cards in my hand, can I use Exeggutor's "Psychic Strategy" attack where each player counts the number of cards in his or her opponent's hand, shuffles his or her hand into the deck, and draws a number of cards up to the number of cards the opponent's hand?
A. Yes, you can have a hand of zero cards and use this attack. The opponent would not get to draw any cards. (Sep 4, 2008 PUI Rules Team)
Q. If Exeggutor's "Psychic Strategy" attack is used and my opponent has any cards in their hand, can I choose to draw no cards?
A. You must draw at least 1 card. (Sep 4, 2008 PUI Rules Team)
