Hi Guys,
This match-up came up the other day in a game and we couldn't decide what the ruling should be so hopefully you guys can help
This also might be an interesting question based on the Toxapex-GX card that's just been revealed.
Mega Beedrill's attack, Hazard Stinger, poisons your opponent (amongst other things) and the opponent has to put 4 damage counters on their pokemon between turns rather than 1.
My question is, if my opponent was to play Pokemon Ranger would the poison damage go back to the standard 1 damage counter between turns or would it stay as 4?
I can argue both sides of this argument but can't decide what the rule would be. Does the extra damage apply to the Status condition or is it still considered an affect of an attack?
As I said above, this would likely have the same effect on the new Toxapex's poison and may be a huge counter for both of these pokemon's attacks.
Please help
