Well I keep encountering people who seem a little confused by the wording change, resulting in questions like "If I switch to a Pokémon that does 10 damage to each opponent's Pokémon, will each Defending Pokémon be KO'd?"
It's quite obvious that this isn't intended, but I was hoping for an official statement to point to.

Please let me rephrase the question:
1. Is Allergic Shock only targeting (and placing an effect on) the opponent's Active Pokémon?

And following up:
2. How would you explain the difference to Fighting Stadium?


Allergic Shock: During your next turn, if the Defending Pokémon is damaged by an attack, it is knocked out.
Fighting Stadium: The attacks of each Fighting Pokémon in play (...) do 20 more damage to the Defending Pokémon-EX (...).

Thank you! :)
 
1. Yes.

2. They are two totally different things in so many ways, that I can't get into a lengthy explanation here.
