I like warp Point so I can choose which of my bench goes up." master_trainer_mike says, "But Kierin likes Double Gust cuz he likes to say the word Gust." master_trainer_mike says, "Gusto!" master_trainer_mike says, "Gusty Mc Gust gust!" master_trainer_mike says, "gustolicious!" master_trainer_mike says, "I'm so funny I'll bust a gust!" master_trainer_mike says, "hee hee hee" master_trainer_pat says, "Double Gust is a little more useful in my opinion, just because I like to decide which of my opponents Pokemon gets moved up" master_trainer_pat presents the speaker with question #41 from thundrchld:where can i find out where the wizard stores are? mainly is there one in atlanta cuz im going on trip there tomarrow master_trainer_pat says, "On our website homepage under stores." master_trainer_mike presents the speaker with question #42 from marios_fire_spin:What is the official ruling with pineco.

NO!" master_trainer_pat presents the speaker with question #51 from chrisbo:(apologies in advance) Last week in Q125 you said that Ditto vs. Sabrina's Alakazam inherits the attacks from the Kazam's bench too (due to the Psylink power on the opponent's Kazam). Please clarify & explain why (or why not), thanks. master_trainer_pat says, "Sure, the answer lies in the wording of S. Alakazam's Psylink power." master_trainer_pat says, "It states that S. Alakazam always has a copy of all attacks your Psychic Pokemon in play have." master_trainer_pat says, "Therefore, a Ditto copying that S. Alakazam has those attacks too." master_trainer_mike says, "OK, WARNING!" master_trainer_mike says, "We just got an updated ruling on Pineco!" master_trainer_mike says, "There are actually 2 flips!" master_trainer_mike says, "Here's how it works." master_trainer_mike says, "The attack does 40 damage. Then flip a coin, if heads the attack ALSO does 40 damage to Pineco AND 10 damage to each benched Pokemon." master_trainer_mike says, "Then flip another coin, if that second coin is tails, then this attack does NOTHING (not even the regular 40 damage)." master_trainer_mike says, "So there are three possible results." master_trainer_mike says, "First if both coins flips are tails, the attack does nothing." master_trainer_mike says, "If the first one is Heads, and the second is tails, this attack STILL does nothing!" master_trainer_mike says, "If the first flip is tails and the second is heads, the attack does 40." master_trainer_mike says, "If the first is heads, and the second is heads, the attack does 40, and 40 to itself AND 10 to each benched Pokemon....." master_trainer_mike says, "(whew)" master_trainer_pat says, "I don't get it" master_trainer_mike says, "SHOOSH!" master_trainer_pat says, "Chrisbo?" master_trainer_pat says, "Ya got that?" master_trainer_mike presents the speaker with question #52 from marios_fire_spin:What is the address for the meowths steve needs? master_trainer_mike says, "sned them to Dark Apprentice Steve c/o Wizards of the Coast PO Box 707 Renton, WA 98057" master_trainer_mike says, "BTW, we're going to add Pineco onto the list of cards we hate along with Ditto and Brock's Ninetails." master_trainer_pat presents the speaker with question #54 from arcanine21:if an erikas dratini has a metal energy, will it take any damage because of its power? master_trainer_pat says, "Metal does it's reduction before the P-mon Power hits." master_trainer_mike presents the speaker with question #55 from shiningcelebi:there is a weedle card in Neo2 right? master_trainer_mike says, "BOOYAH!" master_trainer_pat says, "Yaba Dabba" master_trainer_mike presents the speaker with question #56 from master_o_pokemon:Isnt the neo2 weedle awesome!!!

(I dont know, i havent seen the cards.)

Each of you give different answers to this question, so could you please check with each other before giving an answer... If an evolution card is attached to Brock's Ninetales and Goop Gas Attack is discarded, is the evolution card removed? (Pat always answers that it is discarded, while Mike has told me it stays--I sent him a long e-mail explaining why I thought it should stay--the card only says to discard the evolution if it's asleep, confused, or paralyzed...not just because the power is turned off.) master_trainer_mike says, "Sorry guys, this is an example of how confusing this game can get.
