Attacks » Apply Oil
If my opponent's Dolliv attacks with "Apply Oil" then on my turn I switch to a new Active Pokemon, do I still have to flip a coin to successfully attack?
No. Even though the effect references the opponent it was placed on "the Defending Pokemon", so the effect went away when you changed your Active Pokemon.

Attacks » Acu-Punch-Ture
If I use Medicham's "Acu-Punch-Ture" attack and the opponent switches to a different Active Pokemon that has the same attack as the one I chose for "Acu-Punch-Ture", can they use that attack?
The effect was on the Pokemon that was attacked, so if that Pokemon switches out the new Active Pokemon can use their attack of the same name.

Attacks » Curse Spreading | Abilities » Tera
If my opponent has Arcanine ex or Gyarados ex on the Bench, will its "Tera" attribute prevent me from placing damage counters on it with Drifblim's "Curse Spreading" attack?
No, placing damage counters is different than dealing damage, so it won't be prevented.

Attacks » Primate Acting
When I use Oranguru's "Primate Acting" attack and I realize I don't want to use any of the Supporter cards in my opponent's discard pile, can I choose not to use any?

Trainers » Path to the Peak | Attacks » Star Cipher | Attacks » Ticking Terror
After using Unown VSTAR's "Star Cipher" attack while Path to the Peak is in play, I then use Spiritomb's "Ticking Terror" attack to change the Defending Pokemon's Weakness to {D}. If my opponent removes Path to the Peak from play, what will that Pokemon's Weakness be?
The Weakness will be {P}. Once Path to the Peak is removed from play Star Cipher's effect will reapply, and the most recent Weakness-changing effect takes precedent.

Abilities » Mysterious Nest | Attacks » Star Cipher
If I use Unown VSTAR's "Star Cipher" attack while Dunsparce with "Mysterious Nest" Ability is in play, are my opponent's colorless Pokemon's Weakness set to {P} or do they have no Weakness at all?
The Star Cipher attack would switch your opponent's Pokemon's weakness to {P}, but then Dunsparce's Mysterious Nest would change all colorless Pokemon to no weakness.

For Cobalion's "Follow-Up" attack, can I choose a Benched Pokemon, search for a basic Energy card and attach it, and then choose my second Benched Pokemon and search my deck for a basic Energy card to attach to it?
