Here's the definitive answer on this FAQ:
You do damage before effects, regardless of how the card is worded, per the rule book.
Therefore, Red Armor still blocks the damage from the attack of a Pokemon which discards all its special metal energy as part of its attack... because the special energy was still attached when the damage was calculated.
Garchomp C with DCE can't attack a Scizor with Red Armor in effect.
