When you need to discard 2 Energy's on a Dragon Pokemon and you have a DDE (Double Dragon Energy), such as Kingdra from Primal Clash that discards a Water and an Electric Energy, can you discard The DDE and leave the Water Energy/Rainbow Energy?

That sounds like it must have been with a different card if it was a DCE. If you remember the situation and can grab the scans for me I can help figure out why that was the case.

Glad we could help you here with this one :)
 
PTCGO should not have let you discard a DCE to pay for Dragon Blast's discard requirement.

That said, since the attack calls for the discard of a Water Energy and a Lightning Energy, and Double Dragon Energy satisfies that requirement, you should be able to simply discard the Special Energy card and be done with it.

That said, sometimes PTCGO has bugs that allow players to do things they shouldn't. See if you can replicate this error; if you can, submit it to PTCGO's bug report forum so it can be brought to their attention (if it hasn't already).
