POKEMON POWERS
----------------------------------------------------------------------

== SWEET SLEEPING FACE (Mime Jr. - Call of Legends; others...)

Q. Does Mime Jr's "Sweet Sleeping Face" Poke-BODY also stop Damage Counters from being placed on Mime Jr?
A. No, because placing Damage Counters does not count as damage done to a Pokemon. (Call of Legends FAQ; Feb 10, 2011 PUI Rules Team)


== TRICK REVEAL (Mr. Mime - Call of Legends)

Q. If I don't have any cards in my hand, can I use my Mr. Mime's "Trick Reveal" Poke-POWER to look at my opponent's hand?
A. Yes. You still have a hand, it just has no cards in it. Show your (empty) hand when your opponent shows their hand. (Call of Legends FAQ; Feb 10, 2011 PUI Rules Team)


----------------------------------------------------------------------
POKEMON ATTACKS
----------------------------------------------------------------------

== FAKE TEARS (Teddiursa - Call of Legends)

Q. What happens if I use Teddiursa's "Fake Tears" attack and flip tails?
A. Fake Tears does nothing at all if you flip tails. (Call of Legends FAQ; Feb 10, 2011 PUI Rules Team)


== GRIND (Tangrowth - Call of Legends)

Q. If I have a Double Colorless Energy attached to Tangrowth, will its "Grind" attack do an extra 20 or 40 damage for that energy card?
A. It will do an extra 40 damage. Grind looks at the total amount of energy attached, not energy cards. (Call of Legends FAQ; Feb 10, 2011 PUI Rules Team)

TRAINER CARDS
----------------------------------------------------------------------

== LOST WORLD (Call of Legends)

Q. If my opponent has 6 or more Pokemon cards in his or her Lost Zone after my Pokemon uses its attack, but prior to the start of my opponent's turn, can I declare myself the winner with the effect of the "Lost World" Stadium?
A. No, you can't. You can only declare victory with the effect of Lost World prior to your Pokemon using an attack. Once you begin your attack, you cannot use Lost World's effect. (Call of Legends FAQ; Feb 10, 2011 PUI Rules Team)

Q. Let's say I have no cards left in my deck when my opponent's turn ends, the "Lost World" Stadium is in play and my opponent has 6 Pokemon cards in the Lost Zone. Can I declare myself the winner at the beginning of my turn, before drawing a card from my deck?
A. No you can't. You can only declare yourself the winner with the effect of Lost World during your turn, but since you can't draw a card from your Deck you cannot start your turn, and therefore you lose. (Call of Legends FAQ; Feb 10, 2011 PUI Rules Team)

Q. If a Stage 2 Pokemon or Leveled Up Pokemon is put in the Lost Zone, does that count as one Pokemon towards the 6 Pokemon needed for a player to declare themselves a winner when "Lost World" is in play?
A. No. Each Pokemon card counts toward the 6, including Basic, Stage 1, Stage 2, and Level Up Pokemon cards. (Call of Legends FAQ; Feb 10, 2011 PUI Rules Team)

Q. Do the individual pieces of LEGEND Pokemon count toward the 6 Pokemon needed for a player to declare themselves a winner when "Lost World" is in play?
A. Yes, each LEGEND Pokemon card counts as one Pokemon toward the requirement. (Call of Legends FAQ; Feb 10, 2011 PUI Rules Team)

Q. If an Unown-Q is put into the Lost Zone while it is attached to a Pokemon as a Tool, would it count toward the 6 Pokemon needed for a player to declare themselves a winner when "Lost World" is in play?
A. Yes. Once it is no longer in play, it reverts to being a Pokemon card again. (Call of Legends FAQ; Feb 10, 2011 PUI Rules Team)


== RESEARCH RECORD (Call of Legends)

Q. Can I place all 4 cards that I looked at with the Trainer card "Research Record" at the bottom of my deck? Or can I place all 4 cards on top of my deck?
A. Yes, you can put as many of the four cards on the top or on the bottom any way you like (except face-up). (Call of Legends FAQ; Feb 10, 2011 PUI Rules Team)


----------------------------------------------------------------------
ENERGY CARDS
----------------------------------------------------------------------

== CALL ENERGY (DP:Majestic Dawn)

Q. If my bench if full can I still use "Call Energy" to search my deck?
A. Yes, you could search your deck, but not put out any Pokemon. (Feb 17, 2011 PUI Rules Team)


----------------------------------------------------------------------
GENERAL GAMEPLAY
----------------------------------------------------------------------

== LEVELING UP

Q. Can I Level Up a Pokemon Prime, such as Gengar Prime?
A. Of course you can. "Prime" is not part of the Pokemon's name, so for gameplay purposes it's just plain old "Gengar". (Feb 17, 2011 PUI Rules Team)
