If I attach a Grass energy from my hand using Jagged Saber (M Sceptile EX, Ancient Origins 8) to a Malamar-EX (Phantom Forces 58), will I be able to use Hyper Hypnosis and put my opponent's Active Pokemon to sleep? Or is my turn over and I can't use the ability? I'm a bit confused since Malamar-EX says "Whenever you attach an Energy card from your hand to this Pokemon, you may use this Ability." This sounds like it's a choice and not a constant effect like old cards that say "Poke-Body." The Energy does come from the hand which makes that requirement valid, but since you end your turn after attacking it seems like you shouldn't be able to choose to use Hyper Hypnosis.
