Hi guys,
I have some new questions about Pokémon gameplay.
Problem 1:
If I attach a Pokémon on my Bench, may I switch it with my active Pokémon immediately after putting it onto Bench?
There was a situation, I had Shuppet from Platinum, which attacks for 1 energy and causes 30 damage. Ane effect of its attack says “Return Shuppetr and all cards attached to it to your hand. (If you don't have any Benched Pokémon, this attack does nothing.”
I had 2 of those Shuppet in play – is it possible for me to use this effects of their attacks the way, that first one uses that attack, I return him to my hand, on active position goes the second one, then opponent uses his/her attack, and if my Shuppet wouldn't be KOed, then, on my next turn, I put the returned Shuppet on my Bench, use attack of active Shuppet, return it to my hand and replace active position again with the previous Shuppet…?
Someone told me, that Pokémon must stay 1 turn on Bench, before it can go to “action”, but there isn't any rule, that says so, I'm a little bit unsure.
Problem 2:
If I have Porygon2 from Great Encounters and opponent has Stoutland from Boundaries Crossed, which prevents playing Supporter cards from my hand, may I still use Porygon2's Download Poké-Power and does happen effect of that discraded Supporter?
Problem 3:
If I have Dugtrio (Platinum) on my Bench and some Pokémon with effect like “Whirlwind” which changes the opponent's Pokémon on my active position, does the retreating Pokémon still receive damage from Dugtrio's Sinkhole Poké-Body? And does receive the retreating Pokémon damage, when it retreats with the effect of Switch or any other Trainer or someother else Pokémon's Poké-Power/Poké-Body/Ability? (For example Gradevoir Lv. X's (Secret Wonders) Teleportation Poké-Power)
Problem 4:
Is it possilble for the player to attack a Pokémon, that used something like "Sand attack", which says, that attacking Pokémon muset flip a coin, to see, if the attack would be performed, when the attack of the other Pokémon says, it doesn't apply all efekts of the “blocking” Pokémon?
(For Example Sandshrew's (Base Set) Sand Attack vs. Starmie's (Next Destinies) Swift)
Thanks for answers. ;-)
