Ruling Roserade UL

[cole'a]

Right so just a question about the lovely lady roserade

The poke-power signal
I have seen alot of talk of people using this with the leafeon that does dmg per status effect, which makes alot of sense! The only question I have is why when you attach rainbow energy to roserade do you get BOTH effects (confused and poision)

As after reading rainbow energy

It says that it counts as ALL energy types but provides only ONE energy at a time. So how does this count as attaching both a psych and grass to roserade? as it does have the ability to be ANY kind of energy but it states that it's only ONE energy at a time

Am I missing something here?
Thx for help

I think what you are getting at is that you think it shouldn't count as all types at the same time. It always counts as all types. The reason it states it counts as only one energy at a time is so you don't think it counts as more than one energy toward attack costs.~Mark

You are probably unaware of this, but this question has been asked about 20 different times, and the answer is already in the stickied FAQ:

Q. If I attach a Rainbow Energy (or Multi Energy) to my Roserade UL for its Energy Signal Poke-Power, is the Defending Pokemon Confused, Poisoned, both, or neither?
A. The Defending Pokemon becomes Confused and Poisoned, as Rainbow Energy is an energy card that provides both types of those energy. (In the case of Multi Energy, though, it can't have any other Special Energy cards attached or it will not work.)
