Just want to get a confirmation, will Gengar's power and curse power stop working when a pokemon or gengar is knocked out by placing damage?
 
If the attack says 'place x damage counters on the Defending Pokemon', the power won't work. If the attack 'does x damage', it works.

So yeah, damage counters aren't damage; they're deliberately worded that way.
