Ruling electrivire

[luxneji]

can electrivire have 4 energies like this:
2 electric
1 holon castform
and only discard the 2 electrics

 

[Lieutenant Houndoom]

No, as the Castforms are everything. It could ask you to discard all Fire and Waters and the Castform will still supply for both.

 

[10806]

You can't discard the Castform because it isn't an electric energy, it just supplies it.

 

[-Just me-]

You can't discard the Castform because it isn't an electric energy, it just supplies it.

Ugh!

READ the text on the card...
Anything that is suppling the L energy IS discarded with electivire, you DON'T get to choose the type of those energies(multi, rainbow, DRE, scramble, holon pokemon), they are always suppling all energy types.

 

[luxneji]

ok thanks

We agree on the point that they supply those energies. If they were meant to be discarded, Electivire would say, "Discard all energies supplying [L]".

 

[StealthAngel667]

It supplies all energy, thus counting as L energy as well. The exception would be if it said to discard all L energy CARDS, that would only mean the Basic energy cards with no text other than Energy on them. But it doesn't. Think about Infercatty, it uses DRE for Infernape's 2nd attack, which says: discard all Fire energy. Since DRE supplies it, it's discarded.

 

[DukeFireBird]

10806, all energy cards that provide L energy must be discarded.

If it said that, all would be discarded.

IF it said discard all basic L energy attached to electivire, then yes castform stays as its not basic

 

[luxneji]

ok
another qustion if a pokemons have a castform can i take it using electrivire pokepower

 

[-Just me-]

Yes, any energy providing L energy can be moved with electivire's poke-power.

 

[Rummage]

the power can also move:
DREs attached to a poke. scramble(if its effect is active), or d rainbow if you are moving the energy from a delta pokemon

 

[luxneji]

ok thanks
