Just to clarify. The Compendium states that:

== EXTRA SMOKE (Kingdra EX - EX:Dragon Frontiers)

Q. Say I have a Kingdra-EX with "Extra Smoke" on the bench and a Stage 2 Pokemon-EX Active (other than Kingdra-EX). If my opponent attacks with "Swift" does it ignore "Extra Smoke" or not?
A. The effect of Extra Smoke is always attached to whatever Pokemon that the opponent attacks with, not on the Defending Pokemon nor even on the benched Kingdra-EX. And since Swift only ignores effects on the Defending Pokemon (not the player or Pokemon attacking with Swift), it does NOT ignore Extra Smoke and damage is reduced by -10. (Feb 22, 2007 PUI Rules Team)



So my question is: If I have an ACTIVE Kingdra ex d, and my opponent attacks with Swift, do I reduce the damage?


It would seem so, as the ruling states the effect is not on the active Kingdra ex d, as the underlined portion details...
