If I have a Technical Machine attached to Goldeen that has the "Festival Lead" Ability, can I use its "Whirlpool" attack first and then attack with the TM attack?
No, Festival Lead does not work with TM's; it has to be an attack that the Pokemon has printed on the card.

Reuniclus' "Summoning Gate" attack says to look at the top 8 cards of your deck and put any number of Pokemon you find there onto your Bench. Does this allow you to put more than 5 Pokemon on the Bench?
No, Summoning Gate does not allow you to exceed the normal limits of the game. You can put any number of Pokemon you find onto your Bench up to the maximum size of the Bench. In fact, if you use this attack when your Bench is full, the attack does nothing; you can't even look at the top 8 cards of your deck.

Reuniclus' "Summoning Gate" attack says to look at the top 8 cards of your deck and put any number of Pokemon you find there onto your Bench. Does this allow you to put non-Basic Pokemon directly onto the Bench?
Yes, you can do that.

If my opponent used Iron Boulder ex's "Repulsor Axe" attack, will my Attacking Pokemon with Mist Energy attached receive the 8 damage counters from "Repulsor Axe" if I attack and do damage to Iron Boulder ex?
No, it will not receive the 8 damage counters. Mist Energy prevents all effects of your opponent's attacks done to the Pokemon where it is attached, and Repulsor Axe's damage counters are an effect of your opponent's attack.

If I use Ribombee's "Plentiful Pollen" attack, do I still get to take 2 more Prize cards if the Defending Pokemon is switched out and then I KO it next turn?
Nope, if the Defending Pokemon is switched with a new Pokemon or evolves the effect of Plentiful Pollen goes away.

If I use Sableye's "Damage Collection" attack, can I move damage counters from more than one of my opponent's Benched Pokemon, or can I move damage counters from only one of them?
You can choose as many Benched Pokemon as you like, but all of the damage gets moved to the opponent's Active Pokemon.

If my opponent uses Shiftry's "Expelling Tornado" attack and I have Rabsca in play with 5 Benched Pokemon, would the 2 Benched Pokemon not chosen get shuffled into my deck or would Rabsca's "Spherical Shield" Ability protect them?
Even though the other Pokemon are getting chosen, the effect of Expelling Tornado is still being done to the remaining two Pokemon; so they would be protected by Spherical Shield and would NOT get shuffled into the deck.
