Say I had a RR(or RI, whatever your supposed to call it) kecleon than attacked a pokemon with a weakness of x2 and a resistance of -20, what would be applied first?
 
I don't know for sure, but I think you get to choose which you apply first.
 
You apply Weakness first, and the Resistance. I think it's even in the guidebook or something, but an TCG Rules Master will probably explain all the things you do when you apply damage. Either way, Weakness and then Resistance ;)
 
Weakness first, then resistance. This is found in the compendium

Q. If Kecleon has several types of energy attached and the Defending Pokémon is both Weakness and Resistance to these types, does Kecleon have to apply both W & R or not?
A. Apply them in order. Weakness, then Resistance. (Sep 11, 2003 PUI Rules Team)
