Ruling More Unown G madness!

[SotS]

If I use Skuntank G's Poison Structure, can I still poison my opponents pokemon if they have an unown G attached?

Also can I do that 40 extra damage with Toxicroak's Deep poison if the opponent has an unown G.

Answers will help!

Unoen G prevents effects of attacks. Poison Structure is a PokePower, not an attack. So being poisoned by Poison Structure is not prevented.

It blocks effects of attacks, excluding damage. Since the extra damage from Deep Poison is just that, damage, it is not prevented.

Okay, thanks for the help!

I was afraid I would lose in the next tournament because of him. But now I know it's safe.

Thanks again.
