== HAZARD STAR (Drapion VSTAR - SW: Lost Origin) <SWSH11_119>
Q. If I use Drapion VSTAR's "Hazard Star" VSTAR Ability to poison my opponent's Pokémon with 3 damage counters during Pokémon Checkup, and I have Radiant Hisuian Sneasler with the "Poison Peak" Ability in play, does my opponent put 3 or 5 damage counters on their poisoned Pokémon during checkup?
A. Five damage counters. Poison Peak adds 2 damage counters to whatever the current number of damage counters are being placed for poison. (Lost Origin FAQ; Sep 8, 2022 TPCi Rules Team)
== LETHARGY SPORE (Parasect - SW: Lost Origin) <SWSH11_5>
Q. If I use Parasect's "Lethargy Spore" Ability after a Pokémon has been attacked by Dustox's "Nadir Powder", how many counters are placed on the poisoned Pokémon during Pokémon checkup?
A. Lethargy Spore resets any specific number of damage counters for Poison to 1, therefore overriding Nadir Powder's effect of 8 damage counters for Poison. (Lost Origin FAQ; Sep 8, 2022 TPCi Rules Team)
== MOON-WATCHING PARTY (Clefairy - SW: Lost Origin) <SWSH11_62>
Q. After using Clefairy's "Moon-Watching Party" Ability, if I switch or retreat for a benched Clefairy can I use its "Moon-Watching Party" Ability too?
A. Moon-Watching Party can be used by multiple different Clefairy if you get them into the Active Spot. However, if you bring up a Clefairy that has already used its Moon-Watching Party Ability this turn, it cannot use it a second time. (Lost Origin FAQ; Sep 8, 2022 TPCi Rules Team)
== POISON PEAK (Hisuian Sneasler - SW: Lost Origin) <SWSH11_123>
Q. If I use Drapion VSTAR's "Hazard Star" VSTAR Ability to poison my opponent's Pokémon with 3 damage counters during Pokémon Checkup, and I have Radiant Hisuian Sneasler with the "Poison Peak" Ability in play, does my opponent put 3 or 5 damage counters on their poisoned Pokémon during checkup?
A. Five damage counters. Poison Peak adds 2 damage counters to whatever the current number of damage counters are being placed for poison. (Lost Origin FAQ; Sep 8, 2022 TPCi Rules Team)

POKEMON ATTACKS
----------------------------------------------------------------------
== ANCIENT STAR (Aerodactyl VSTAR - SW: Lost Origin) <SWSH11_93>
* Aerodactyl VSTAR retains the effect of its "Ancient Star" attack even if it goes to the Bench or becomes Active. If an effect like Path to the Peak stadium shuts off Abilities then Ancient Star is turned off, but if that effect goes away, the Ancient Star Ability returns. It will also count toward the number of Pokémon with an Ability in play. (Lost Origin FAQ; Sep 8, 2022 TPCi Rules Team)
== DOOM CURSE (Hisuian Zoroark - SW: Lost Origin) <SWSH11_76>
Q. If I use Hisuian Zoroark's "Doom Curse" attack and my opponent switches or retreats and brings up a new Active Pokémon, which of their Pokémon will be Knocked Out at the end of their next turn?
A. Neither! The effect of Doom Curse was on the attacked Pokémon and going to the bench removes all Attack Effects. So after the switch/retreat the Doom Curse effect is gone. (Lost Origin FAQ; Sep 8, 2022 TPCi Rules Team)
== FAN TORNADO (Shiftry - SW: Lost Origin) <SWSH11_13>
Q. If I use Shiftry's "Fan Tornado" attack and my opponent has an Active Pokémon that used its "Swim Freely" attack on their last turn, can I still choose to have them switch their Active Pokémon with a benched Pokémon if they flipped heads for "Swim Freely"?
A. No, the effect of Fan Tornado is targeting the Active Pokémon (not the Benched Pokémon), and therefore is prevented due to the effect of Swim Freely. (Lost Origin FAQ; Sep 8, 2022 TPCi Rules Team)
== LORDLY SONGLEADER (Politoed - SW: Lost Origin) <SWSH11_32>
Q. If I have a Poliwag and a Poliwhirl and a Poliwrath all on my bench, does Politoed's "Lordly Songleader" attack do additional damage for each one?
A. Yes, you get the additional bonuses once per Pokémon named in the attack, which you have on your bench. (Lost Origin FAQ; Sep 8, 2022 TPCi Rules Team)
Q. If I have multiple Poliwag on my bench, does Politoed's "Lordly Songleader" attack do additional damage for each of those Pokémon?
A. You only get the additional bonus once per Pokémon named in the attack. For example, if you have two or more Poliwag on the bench you only get to add +60 once. (Lost Origin FAQ; Sep 8, 2022 TPCi Rules Team)
Q. If I have a Poliwrath on my bench that evolved from a Poliwag and a Poliwhirl do I get all of the damage bonuses for each of them?
A. No, you only look at the most evolved stage of a Pokémon in play. The previous stages are now part of that Pokémon. (Lost Origin FAQ; Sep 8, 2022 TPCi Rules Team)
== LOST MINE (Sableye - SW: Lost Origin) <SWSH11_70>
Q. If I have 5 cards in my Lost Zone and my opponent has 5 cards in their Lost Zone, can I use Sableye's "Lost Mine" or Giratina VSTAR's "Star Requiem" attack or Fantina?
A. No. Each player has a separate Lost Zone above their Prize Cards that they put cards into. You yourself must have 10 cards in your Lost Zone in order to do either of those attacks or to play Fantina. (Lost Origin FAQ; Sep 8, 2022 TPCi Rules Team)
== MAGICAL FIRE (Delphox V - SW: Lost Origin) <SWSH11_27>
Q. When using Delphox V's "Magical Fire" attack, do I still have to put 2 Energy attached to that Pokémon if my opponent doesn't have any Benched Pokémon?
A. Yes, you must still put 2 Energy into the Lost Zone when using Magical Fire. (Lost Origin FAQ; Sep 8, 2022 TPCi Rules Team)
== NADIR POWDER (Dustox - SW: Lost Origin) <SWSH11_10>
Q. If I use Parasect's "Lethargy Spore" Ability after a Pokémon has been attacked by Dustox's "Nadir Powder", how many counters are placed on the poisoned Pokémon during Pokémon checkup?
A. Lethargy Spore resets any specific number of damage counters for Poison to 1, therefore overriding Nadir Powder's effect of 8 damage counters for Poison. (Lost Origin FAQ; Sep 8, 2022 TPCi Rules Team)
== SCRAP SHORT (Rotom V - SW: Lost Origin) <SWSH11_58>
Q. Do I have to have Tool cards in my discard pile in order to use Rotom V's "Scrap Short" attack? Or if I have Tool cards in my discard pile, do I have to choose at least one of them to put into the Lost Zone?
A. You can use Scrap Short if you don't have any Tool cards in your discard pile. Scrap Short does not require you to put any Tool cards into the Lost Zone; if you cannot or choose not to put any Tool cards into the Lost Zone it only does the base amount of damage. (Lost Origin FAQ; Sep 8, 2022 TPCi Rules Team)
== STAR REQUIEM (Giratina VSTAR - SW: Lost Origin) <SWSH11_131>
Q. If I have 5 cards in my Lost Zone and my opponent has 5 cards in their Lost Zone, can I use Sableye's "Lost Mine" or Giratina VSTAR's "Star Requiem" attack or Fantina?

Q. If I use Shiftry's "Fan Tornado" attack and my opponent has an Active Pokémon that used its "Swim Freely" attack on their last turn, can I still choose to have them switch their Active Pokémon with a benched Pokémon if they flipped heads for "Swim Freely"?
A. No, the effect of Fan Tornado is targeting the Active Pokémon (not the Benched Pokémon), and therefore is prevented due to the effect of Swim Freely. (Lost Origin FAQ; Sep 8, 2022 TPCi Rules Team)
== SYNCHRO KINESIS (Malamar - SW: Lost Origin) <SWSH11_78>
Q. If I use Malamar's "Synchro Kinesis" attack and the only card that each of us have in common are Basic Energy cards, do I get to do the extra damage or not?
A. If you and your opponent both have Basic Energy of the same type in your hands, it's a match. Professor's Research and Boss's Orders with different characters on them also count as matches. (Lost Origin FAQ; Sep 8, 2022 TPCi Rules Team)
== THUMPING SNORE (Snorlax - SW: Lost Origin) <SWSH11_143>
Q. When Snorlax uses its "Thumping Snore" attack, how long does the effect of having to flip 2 coins during Pokémon Checkup while Asleep last?
A. The effect lasts either until Snorlax wakes up or it moves out of the Active Spot. (Sep 8, 2022 TPCi Rules Team)
Q. If my Snorlax is affected by its "Thumping Snore" attack but then on my opponent's turn they use an effect that puts Snorlax to sleep, does the 2 coin flip effect of Thumping Snore get replaced by the regular 1 coin flip effect during Pokémon Checkup?
A. The newer sleep condition would replace Thumping Snore’s sleep condition, so you would now only have to flip 1 coin instead of 2. (Sep 8, 2022 TPCi Rules Team)

== SINGLE STRIKE MUSTARD (SW: Battle Styles) <SWSH5_134>
Q. Can I play Single Strike Mustard if my Bench is full?
A. No, you cannot play the card. Since the Bench is full you cannot search your deck, and since you did not search your deck you do not get to draw 5 cards. (Sep 8, 2022 TPCi Rules Team)
== LOST CITY (SW: Lost Origin) <SWSH11_161>
Q. What happens if a Pokémon with Splash Energy attached is Knocked Out by an attack while Lost City stadium is in play?
