Frozen City + DCE: 20 damage or 40 damage?
I don't see that as being inconsistent. Energy Signal checks the energy type right as it is attached - at this point, it is both Grass/Psychic, and all other types. However, Deluge and Inferno Fandango check as the card is in your hand. In other words, they basically say "IF you have a fire energy in you hand, THEN you can attach it with the ability." At the point the ability "checks" the energy, it is colorless.see both sides of the debate, but I don't see anyway it isn't 40 looking at past precedent.
Even though Rainbow Energy was treated as colorless in hand,it was still treated as Grass/Psychic at the point of attachment with Energy Signal. But at the same time, that ruling is inconsistent with special energy with deluge/inferno fandago.

A. You place 3 because there was only one attachment, even though the attachment provided multiple energies. (Sep 13, 2012 TPCi Rules Team)

It would place 2 damage counters. The act of attaching was done once.Frozen City said:Whenever any player attaches an Energy from his or her hand to 1 of his or her Pokémon (excluding Team Plasma Pokémon) put 2 damage counters on that Pokémon.
