Thread '∆ plus ancient trait and Technical Machines' https://pokegym.net/community/index.php?threads/∆-plus-ancient-trait-and-technical-machines.192755/
the question came up that due to the wording on the∆ plus ancient trait stating
" if your opponent's pokémon is knocked out by damage from an attack of this pokémon, take one more prize card"
would a knockout utilizing technical machine blindside proc the ancient traits extra prize, essentially is a TM attack considered an attack of this pokémon.
PokePop's answer in the ask the rules team forum seems to be referencing taking the extra prize not being blocked by an effect which wasn't originally the question.
"Taking a prize is not an effect on the Pokemon, so it is not blocked."
