What would happen if my opponent's Shuckle used Ferment Poison to Poison my Active Pokémon, and I used Xatu's Psychic Shift? Would the Poison, being the 'same Special Condition', lose its Poké-Body? Would this ruling also apply when Shifting a Toxic Poison? Would the exact same thing be applied when using something like Form Change, where you move the Special Conditions?

It is played similar to Xatu from Deoxys...it ends the condition and then gives that same Special Condition to another Pokemon - it doesn't transfer the additional effects.

== MIRROR COAT (Wobbuffet - Skyridge; Xatu - EX:Deoxys; Natu - EX:Deoxys)

Q. If Skyridge Wobbuffet is attacked by "Toxic" or "Triple Poison", does the attacking Pokémon also receive the double-poison or triple-poison special
condition too?
A. They are Poisoned, but it is just normal Poison and they take only one damage counter between turns. (Jan 27, 2005 PUI Rules Team)
