The thrash attack for Magmar of the E-Expedition set says,
"Flip a coin. If heads,this attack does 30 damage plus 10 more damage. If tails, Magmar does 10 damage to itself."
Does that mean if tails it does only 10 to itself, and not 30 to the defender?

The base Damage for the attack is 30+. The Plus in this instance means that it can do an additional, the + meaning to add, 10 damage to the defending after a heads flip. The Draw back is that the + can do the damage to Magmar aswell. So the Plus is just an additional effect to the Base damage of 30 that is done to the Defending Pokemon. Unfortunately, the + could be a - in this situation.

So, it still does 30 to the Defending Pokemon.
