Ruling Armaldo LA

[Rainyd]

I understand very well the attack Armaldo LA: the effect of +40 is what Pokémon? if the opponent changes, the effect is it always there? if I put a Pokémon KO the opponent with the attack on Armaldo, es que le +40 is applied to the new Pokémon defender?

Help me, please

Unfortunately, this is an effect on a specific pokemon and removing it from the Active position removes all conditions, including the +40 damage from Armaldo.

It says 'To the Defending Pokemon', meaning it's an effect on the Defending Pokemon. Therefore, if the Defending Pokemon is benched, the effect ends, and your attacks will do regular damage next turn.

Not necessarily.

Although you are correct in this case, and it's a safe assumption most of the time.

Holy carp that is confusing.

At least I'm still right. :/

So to make it clearer:
-The effect is on the defending pokemon
-if your opponent retreat its active, the effect go away
-if you ko your opponent active, the effect would not aply to the new active, since the effect was placed in the pokemon you just ko.
-if you use crush claw, and armaldo is benched or kod, the next pokemon can use the effect bonus, if your opponents active is the same that you hit the last turn with crush claw.

I see you speak spanish, if you want me to explain it to you in spanish just pm me.
