Well, the general ruling is that attacks that a Pokemon doesn't have but can just "use" don't actually belong to the Pokemon, anyway (Mew EX and Round, for example.) There already has been a ruling that Mew EX does not get the benefit of King's Song if it uses a Poliwhirl/Polywag/Poliwrath...

RE: Celbi and Politoad Politoad is a Politoad, even if it can use other attacks. You still need the colorless.

RE: N in BCR? Yes or No? Yes, it is BW100 Black Star Promo and is still legal.

Definitely tell your opponent before you start playing. Since tournaments were mentioned... Tournament rules: and in general: Personally, If 1. you are upfront about it 2. aren't trying to pass off a proxy as a genuine card (aka you are counterfeiting) 3. it is only playing for fun and 4...

Well, whatever PokePop says goes :) We had a lively discussion on the topic, but there was no previous compendium ruling, even in the meta-rulings, that I saw that I could easily quote.

It is your choice which to apply first since they happen simultaneously and it was your Pokémon's attack's effects.

RE: Megas and "overkill" questions Venusaur EX and M Venusaur EX are differently named, so yes you can have 4 of both.

It has to be in play at the start of their turn in order to evolve it. So, they can evolve it, since it will be.

The ruling below explains. "A devolved Pokemon counts as just coming into play." That means it has no active status effects. The poison is cleared.

Well, Cradily's Lifesplosion does not have the text of Garchomp Lv. X that says the Pokemon you placed on the bench is a basic. So, you have to distinguish between the two. Unevolved is not equal to basic. In either case, Machamp's attack would knock them out. But Pokemon put into play via...

You can't attack your own Pokémon, although there are many Pokémon with attacks that have some sort of effect on your active as the result of an attack. Take Tauros (XY 100). Its attack, Take Down, reads "This Pokémon does 10 damage to itself." If you have a strategy that requires you to take...

RE: Coin flip start game The online game is right. You are thinking of First Ticket from Dragon Vault, which now is an unplayable card. It can be in your deck, but is good for nothing except a discard.

Please post scans of the cards in question.

RE: Korrina coming in Furious Fists Sure. You can fail to find a card in a deck search even if there is one present in the deck.

You are exactly right.

There's an official TPCi ruling: Q. If I use Exeggcute's "Propagation" Ability to retrieve it from the Discard Pile into my hand, then use something like Ultra Ball or Computer Search to discard Exeggcute, would I be able to use "Propagation" again to retrieve it from the Discard Pile? A. Yes...

No. It says "a".

PokePop over at the Gym said "They are treated as unevolved Stage 2s. Anything that affects "Basic Pokemon" does not affect them."

Yep. Special conditions don't turn them off unless they say so.
