Ruling Unlimited Question

[Lupin]

Hi Guys..

I just wondering ruling in unlimited format,

1. can I use 'Trainer' before DP-CoL, under trainer lock (Villeplume UD, or Spiritomb AR) ?
example : can I use Computer search / Gust of wind when there is Villeplume UD in play?

2. if I have Muk Fosil in play, do it's Toxic Gas Pokemon Power, shutdown all Poke Power and Poke Body?

3. if there is Muk Fosil in play, then I lvl up my dialga G into Dialga G lvl X, do Muk Fosil's Toxic Gas is shutdown?

1) You can't play a trainer card under trainer lock no matter what set its from. However you can play a pre D/P supporter/stadium card that has trainer listed on the top since these are not considered trainers under the current rules. Also, item=trainer for all intents and purposes.

2) Yes, Muk will shut down all pokepowers and pokebodies. This is because a pokemon power is considered a body+power

3) No. However Muk will shutdown Dialga's body. Since a pokemon power is both a pokepower and pokebody, you have to have a card that refers to both at once in order to effect a pokemon power. For instance, UD Umbreon's attack would work against a pokemon with a pokemon power because it specifically references both pokepowers and pokebodies.

As another point of clarification, an ability is completely separate from pokepowers, pokebodies, and pokemon powers. No cards that effect these, interact with abilities.
