Attacks » Alloyed Hammer | Energy » Luminous Energy
If I use Tinkaton's "Alloyed Hammer" attack with only one Luminous Energy attached, does it do 60 or 180 damage?
The Luminous Energy pays the {P} attack cost but also counts as all energy types including {M}, so you would do the bonus damage for a total of 180 damage.

Attacks » Moonglow Reverse | Abilities » Stellar Veil
What happens if I use Cresselia's "Moonglow Reverse" attack to move a bunch of damage counters from my Pokemon to one of my opponent's Benched Pokemon while they have a Jirachi with the "Stellar Veil" Ability in play?
Moonglow Reverse would remove two damage counters from each of your Pokemon in play, but the opponent's Benched Pokemon would not receive any of them because it is protected by Stellar Veil.

Attacks » Scorching Heater | Abilities » Stance
If my opponent attacked with Magby's "Scorching Heater" attack last turn and I evolve into Espathra with "Stance" Ability this turn, will my Espathra receive the 6 damage counters from "Scorching Heater" if it attacks and does damage to Magby?
No, it will not receive the 6 damage counters. Stance prevents all effects of your opponent's attacks, and Scorching Heater's damage counters are an effect of your opponent's attack.

Attacks » Echoing Madness
When I use Crobat's "Echoing Madness" attack, do I have to name specific cards like "Switch" or "Professor's Research" that my opponent won't be able to play?

Trainers » Path to the Peak | Attacks » Punishing Scissors
Say my opponent has 3 Genesect V on the bench and Path to the Peak is in play. If I attack with Scizor's "Punishing Scissors" attack, do I do 10 damage or 160 damage?
When Path to the Peak is in play Genesect V has no Abilities, so Punishing Scissors would only do 10 damage in this situation.

Attacks » Genome Hacking
Do I have to meet the energy requirements for the attack I choose with Mew ex's "Genome Hacking" attack?
No, you do not have to meet the energy requirements for the attack. However, if the attack says you must do something or the attack does nothing, that part still has to be done.
