Mist Energy (TEF 161) and Aggron's Counter Press (CRZ 089)

[Metallurg1st]

What happens if a pokemon with mist energy attacks Aggron (CRZ 089) after it attacked the previous turn using counter press?

My expectation is that the mist energy prevents the effect of attack "Counter Press" which places damage counters on the attacking pokemon. Is this expectation correct, or is the effect of Counter Press placed on Aggron after the attack and no longer considered an effect of an attack when the opposing pokemon attacks Aggron?

As a specific example, what happens if Cramorant (LOR 050) with Mist Energy attached attacks Aggron (CRZ 089) with "Spit Innocently" after Aggron attacked with Counter press the previous turn?

This ruling from the Temporal Forces FAQ would apply. The only difference is that the number of damage counters placed is variable instead of fixed.

== REPULSOR AXE (Iron Boulder ex – SV:Temporal Forces)​

Q. If my opponent used Iron Boulder ex’s “Repulsor Axe” attack, will my Attacking Pokemon with Mist Energy attached receive the 8 damage counters from “Repulsor Axe” if I attack and do damage to Iron Boulder ex?
{A. No, it will not receive the 8 damage counters. Mist Energy prevents all effects of your opponent’s attacks done to the Pokemon where it is attached, and Repulsor Axe’s damage counters are an effect of your opponent’s attack.}
