If a pokemon with dark energy attacks a pokemon with metal energy, which applies first? the metal or the dark? A. Effects on the attacking Pokemon are figured first. [Ed.Note: So it does not matter who has which energy; the attacker's effects are always calculated first.] (Aug 16, 2001 WotC Chat, Q11) Q. If you have a Metal and a Darkness Energy attached to the dark Houndour, does it do 10 or 0 damage [for its "Bite" attack]? A. 0, the Metal effect is applied first (before Weakness and Resistance), Darkness is applied second (after Weakness and Resistance).
