Ruling Solosis FCL

[GermyWormy]

My question pertains to the solosis, duosion, and reuniclus cards of the Fates Collide expansion.

The Mini Link attack of Solosis does 10 damage but says to add 30 if you have Solosis on your bench. Does this effect stack for every Solosis on your bench or does it only activate once i.e. if any Solosis are present?

Spoiler: card

Moved from the TCG Help & Advice to the Ask a Professor Forums as the OP is asking a rulings question. Also edited in a scan this time of the two cards in question since the rules of this forum is that card scans must accompany questions. ~bbninjas

There is no stacking in this case. It doesn't matter if you have one, two, or three Solosis on your Bench (and on that note, it doesn't matter if the Solosis on your Bench also have the Mini Link attack or not), the attack just does 30 more damage. If it was meant to stack, the attack would read "this attack does 30 more damage for each Solosis on your Bench."

However, it should be noted that the damage boosts on the Duosion's and Reuniclus' attacks do have a stacking effect. If you have a Solosis, a Duosion, and a Reuniclus on your Bench when your Active Reuniclus uses Link Fusion, the attack does 10+30+60+90, for a grand total of 190 damage. Note that like Mini Link, each boost can only be applied once, no matter how many of that Pokemon are on your Bench.

That's what I assumed but I wanted to make sure. Thanks!
