Ruling plakia ge question

It's strange, but there is no ruling in the Compendium on this one. However, there is one for Machamp GL, which has a similar attack. It explicitly states that you can't use the effect if the Defending Poke is the only one your opponent has. I'd say this should count for Palkia, too, but this needs someone to confirm it for me.
I think you win. not completely sure.
Unless the card specifically says you cannot use an attack or effect for some reason or another, you can use it. If you flip the heads, and that is their last Pokemon in play, you win. This is somewhat similar to Uxie's Psychic Restore. If Uxie is your last Pokemon, you CAN put it under and lose. You just choose not to. It does not specifically say "If you have no Benched Pokemon, you cannot use this effect."
thanks everyone.
