Abilities » Empty Shell | Attacks » Shred
Would Giratina EX's "Shred" attack allow my opponent to knock out my Shednija (with "Empty Shell") and take a prize since the attack says its not affected by any effects on the Defending Pokemon?
The damage done by Shred is not affected by Empty Shell, but that has nothing to do with whether you take a prize or not. You still get no prize because of "Empty Shell".

Can you discard a Blend Energy card when using Rayquaza EX's "Dragon Burst" attack to do extra damage?

Attacks » Bounce

Attacks » Daunt
If I use Beartic's "Daunt" attack, but then Beartic is KO'd by Poison, does the effect of Daunt reducing damage done by attacks from the Defending Pokemon go away?
No, the effect of Daunt resides on the Defending Pokemon, not on Beartic. However, if the Pokemon that was attacked by Daunt evolves, goes to the Bench, or leaves play then the effect of Daunt goes away.

If I use Nuzleaf's "Surprise Punch" and my opponent has no Benched Pokemon, what happens to the Energy on the Defending Pokemon?
If there are no Benched Pokemon you just do as much as you can. You do 20 damage but no energy is moved or discarded.

Attacks » Vengeful Wish
Is the effect of Jellicent's "Vengeful Wish" attack cancelled if the damage from last turn was done while it was on the bench, or if the Pokemon that damaged it retreats or is KO'd?
Vengeful Wish is not an effect that can be cleared; it simply looks to see if damage was done to Jellicent by an attack last turn then does that amount of base damage to the current Defending Pokemon.
