I think these are a really good idea. But I do have a problem with the Cursed Energy. It's effect is less than an Expert Belt, but it has, in my way worse consequences. I would either make it have a better positive, or a less harmful negative. Or maybe do both, and make another card! ^_^
 
Much better. I'm not sure about the wording... but as for what they do, I like them. A good idea too... I had kinda been wondering why those types didn't have any specials like dark has. They are still kind of unbalanced though. For example, Darkness Energy (sp) simply adds 10 to the attack if it is attached to a dark type, while the Fighting one you have does the same thing, but ONLY with attacks that don't have effects. That's the worst balancing issue that I see.
 
Cursed Energy is way, way, way too powerful. Way. That Pokemon will never be KO'd with 4 of them attached, and will be doing a minimum of 130 damage with it's attacks. 130 is for an attack with a base damage of 10. Take, say, Kingdra with a base of 60? That's 180. Way too powerful.

Also, the way it's worded, a S2 LvX would add 4 Prize cards - The basic, S1, S2, and the LvX. Since a common theme of Cursed things is that you can't get rid of them, wouldn't it make more sense for the Cursed Energy to be added to the prize cards?

Also, there is no need for the "This doesn't count as a basic X card". It's special. It's not basic. It already doesn't count.
 
I'm talking about Poison, but instead of Poison damage being done to your Poke, it gets done to the opponent. Plus, it would COMPLETELY screw a Drapion LV. X Deck.

Poison wouldn't take effect, as it has to do damage, but Poison places damage counters. Hope this helps :thumb:!
