If my opponent uses Sudowoodo's "Watch and Learn" attack to copy the attack my Pokemon used last turn, what would happen if I use my own Sudowoodo's "Watch and Learn" attack on my following turn?: Your Sudowoodo would copy your opponent's Watch and Learn attack, not the attack your opponent copied. So unfortunately your Watch and Learn would do nothing.

Zoroark GX's "Trickster GX" attack allows you to copy an attack from any of your opponent's Pokemon. Does this allow you to copy an opponent's GX attack or not? If so, what if your opponent has already used up their GX attack for the game?: Yes, Trickster GX can copy an opponent's GX attack, even if the opponent has already used up their GX attack for the game. It does not count as using 2 GX attacks.

If Cinccino uses "Amazing Plea" and there are zero cards in the discard pile, do I automatically do 80 damage? Or what if I only have one card in the discard pile?: The answer is the same regardless of the number of cards in the discard pile. Your opponent decides whether you take the cards (even if it's 0) or do 80 damage.

When using Mamoswine's "Forceful Tackle" attack, can I put enough damage counters on Mamoswine to knock it out? In other words, can I put more damage counters on it than it has HP remaining?: Yes, you can put up to 9 damage counters on it even if it doesn't have that much HP remaining. The extra damage will be done, and at the end of the attack Mamoswine will be knocked out.

Gourgeist's "Pumpkin Bomb" attack says to "discard any number of Pokemon Tool cards from your Pokemon", but can I choose a different Pokemon other than Gourgeist for this attack?: The term "Pokemon" in the attack is plural, so you can choose any or all of your Pokemon and discard as many Tool cards as you like from them.

In a single-elimination match that goes to time and is tied during the final game, if I add prizes to my opponent's field with Nihilego GX's "Symbiont GX" attack on my turn, do I win?: Yes. After regulation time (plus any additional turns) is completed, once you have fewer prizes remaining than your opponent, you win.

In a Sudden Death game, if I add prizes to my opponent's field with Nihilego GX's "Symbiont GX" attack, is the game won by the next player to take a prize, or the first player to take their last prize?: A Sudden Death match is complete when a player has taken all of their prizes, regardless of whether there is more than one or not. So adding prizes in this scenario makes it more difficult for the opponent to win.

If I have Florges with "Calming Aroma" in play my attacks cost one Fairy Energy less. So I think I can use Zygarde's "Core Enforcer" attack without a Fairy energy attached, but what about the part of the attack that says to discard one Dark and one Fairy energy from this Pokemon?: You do as much of the attack text as you can, which in your situation means simply discarding one Dark energy.
