== BLAZE (Blaziken - EX:Emerald)
Q. Does Blaziken's "Blaze" PokÈ-Body work after each player's turn, or does it only apply when Blaziken attacks?
A. It only applies to attacks made by Blaziken that do damage. If Blaziken does not attack you do not get to do the +40 damage. (May 5, 2005 PUI Rules Team; May 19, 2005 PUI Rules Team)

Q. Does Blaziken's "Blaze" PokÈ-Body work after each player's turn, or does it only apply when Blaziken attacks?
A. It only applies to attacks made by Blaziken that do damage. If Blaziken does not attack or if its attack damage is reduced to zero (i.e. using "Searing Flame" with Double Rainbow Energy attached), you do not get to do the +40 damage. (May 5, 2005 PUI Rules Team)
Q. Say I have a Double Rainbow Energy attached to Blaziken from EX:Emerald. Does this reduce its "Searing Flame" attack to zero and not allow me to use its "Blaze" PokÈ-Body (since I'd be doing no damage to "add 40 more" to)?
A. They are applied during the same step in calculating damage. The player attacking with Blaziken may choose the order. (May 19, 2005 PUI Rules Team)
== DRAGON AURA (Rayquaza - EX
eoxys)
Q. Does Rayquaza's "Dragon Aura" prevent an attack that places damage counters?
A. Yes, "placing counters" is not the same as "doing damage", so placing counters is prevented by Dragon Aura. (May 19, 2005 PUI Rules Team)

----------------------------------------------------------------------
== BRICK SMASH (Machamp - EX:Hidden Legends)
Q. For HL Machamp's "Brick Smash" attack, do trainers on the Defending PokÈmon (like "Buffer Piece") or Metal Energy affect the amount of damage done?
A. Yes, trainers & Metal Energy would be considered as "effects on the Defending PokÈmon" for the purposes of this attack. (May 19, 2005 PUI Rules Team)
== SEARING FLAME (Blaziken - EX:Emerald)
Q. Say I have a Double Rainbow Energy attached to Blaziken from EX:Emerald. Does this reduce its "Searing Flame" attack to zero and not allow me to use its "Blaze" PokÈ-Body (since I'd be doing no damage to "add 40 more" to)?
A. They are applied during the same step in calculating damage. The player attacking with Blaziken may choose the order. (May 19, 2005 PUI Rules Team)

== EXP.ALL (Neo Destiny; EX:Hidden Legends)
Q. If I have EXP.ALL attached to one of my benched pokemon and someone uses an attack such as "Cold Crush" which discards energy and it knocks out my pokemon, would I get to use my EXP.ALL or not?
A. You don't get to take one of the "discarded energy", but if there are any energies still left on the Pokemon when it is KO'd then you could use it. EXP.ALL only picks up ones that are on the Pokemon when it was KO'd, not the one that was removed as an effect. (May 19, 2005 PUI Rules Team)
