New rulings - Metal energy, and so on...

Please forgive me - I've been living under a rock, and haven't heard about the new ruling on Metal energy, (and all the rule changes too). It's just that I use a Metal deck, and I'm worried that my "ironclad" Shuckle (4 metal energy + 2 grass energy = invincible) may not be so effective any more...

Or if there's an official page with the ruling, can you please tell me where it is?

Thankyou, :D

Metal Energy officialy excludes the sentence about non-Metal Pokemon reducing their damage done, and the defensive section now will only apply to a Metal Pokemon.

Okay - looks like that Shuckle is going to have to come out of my deck, and Steelix will be replaced with Aggron.
Thankyou :D

If you wan't see all the rules changes, all you need to do is look at a rulebook from R/S(by a deck, borrow it from a freind, ect, ect...), on page #2 it has a list of all the new rulings, sorry but I don't of any web sites where you could get the info.

Yes, the new metal/dark energy rulings are certainly one of the biggest changes to the game. They will change the way alot of deck are played. Lol, I guess we dont have any more steel chancey heh.
