Ruling Instant KO attacks

[Kiseki]

Hello, my question relates to certain attacks that targets a pokemon to make it die in the next turn, for example Jirachi or Absol G:

Discard all energy attached to Jirachi. The Defending Pokémon is Knocked Out at the end of your oponent's next turn.

If i retreat my active pokémon, switch it, evolve it, return it to my hand, etc, in other words, if i replace my active pokemon in some form, this effect goes off and my pokemon stays alive?

If i KO Jirachi the effect still goes on?

Thanks for the responces.

The effect will remain on your Active Pokemon until it is switched, evolved, returned to your hand, etc. It does not matter what the state of Jirachi is.
