Good try, but no. Life drain places damage counters, Plus power adds damage. The two are not compatible, so nothing is added.

yes, he is more than right, because plus power only adds damage IF DAMAGE IS DONE. Seeing as the kadabra only PLACES COUNTERS, no damage is "being done", so using a plus power would be of no use.

Speaking of which, Raindance...

Q. Would Sabrina's Kadabra's Life Drain be an instant Knock Out if it has a Plus Power attached?
A. No, Life Drain doesn't do damage, it just places damage counters. Plus Power only works when damage is done. (Oct 12, 2000 WotC Chat, Q136)

Now I know this is a long try, but I havent read strength charm, would that add 10 even though kadabra puts damage counters?

Strength Charm
Trainer card
Pokémon Tool
Attach Strength Charm to 1 of your Pokémon that doesn’t have a Pokémon Tool attached to it.
Whenever an attack from the Pokémon that Strength Charm is attached to does damage (after applying Weakness and Resistance), the attack does 10 more damage. At the end of your turn in which this happens, discard Strength Charm.

Nope. No adding.

Sabrina's Kadabra's Life Drain place damage counters on the defending Pokemon until it it down to 10HP. You can use PlusPower for its Psyshot attack. Hope this helps.
