Ruling Evolutions Electrode Buzzap rule

[Matt Suchan]

I'm trying to use the reprint of Electrode in a rogue deck I'm creating but I'm confused on the specifics of the Ability: Buzzap Thunder. Electrode in Base set use to become any energy of your choosing after you "knocked out" the card. Now it become two Lightning energy. Question, however, is will I be able to play Teammates the following turn? Specifically, Teammates says "You can play this card only if 1 of your Pokémon was Knocked Out during your opponent's last turn." But if I knocked out Electrode on MY last turn, am I still allowed to use Teammates?

Thanks!

You seem to have found the key text yourself. Buzzap Thunder alone would not allow you to play Teammates - the timing does matter!
