Ruling Unfezant Sky Attack

[Jimmy315]

Hello Everyone,

Let's say on my turn, I use "Feather Dance", then on my next turn I use "Sky Attack" to do 200.

For the turn after that, is "Sky Attack" still doing 200? Or does it go back to 120, until I use "Feather Dance" again?

Give the card another read and tell me what you think. I'll let you know if you're right - but I bet you will be

I would assume that it would only work for one turn. And if I want "Sky Attack" to do 200 damage, I would have to do "Feather Dance" again.

Absolutely right Feather Dance says that it applies to your next turn, and after that the effect ends. It's easy to overthink things, but you can sort out a lot by reading carefully.

One last followup. Does this mean that Virizion's "Leaf Wallop" alternates back and forth as well? 40, 80, 40 etc...?

As long as you've used Leaf Wallop during your last turn, its base damage is 40+40. The first time you use it you'll hit for 40 damage, and then each subsequent turn is 80.
