Trainers » First Ticket
With the rule change effective November 8, 2013 about performing the coin flip before each player draws their starting hand, how does First Ticket work now?
You can still use First Ticket in your deck, but it essentially becomes ineffective since the coin flip has already taken place before the point when First Ticket can be played.

Trainers » Cedric Juniper
For Cedric Juniper, can the opponent look at any face up cards around them to figure out the height of a Pokemon. Can he/she look at an open binder nearby?
You could look at other Pokemon that are in play but not at a binder. Just on the field, in your hand, or in the Discard Pile for either player.

Trainers » Cedric Juniper
When using Cedric Juniper, my opponent asks for the height of a Pokemon in play on the field. Is it legal for him to cover that card up?
Nope.

Trainers » Pokemon Catcher | Errata » Pokemon Catcher
The wording of Pokemon Catcher is now as follows, "Flip a coin. If heads, switch 1 of your opponent's Benched Pokemon with his or her Active Pokemon." This card now requires a coin flip; making it functionally identical to Pokémon Reversal.

Attacks » Night Slash | Trainers » Rock Guard
Ninjask's "Night Slash" attack has an effect where it may switch with a Benched Pokemon. If it switches, would the Defending Pokemon's Rock Guard effect take place on Ninjask or on the new Pokemon?
Rock Guard references putting counters on "the Attacking Pokemon", so Ninjask would still take the damage counters even if it goes to the Bench.

Attacks » Piston Headbutt | Trainers » Silver Mirror
What happens to the opponent's Energy if I use Krookodile's "Piston Headbutt" attack, but my opponent's Pokemon has Silver Mirror attached to it?
If Silver Mirror is attached to the Defending Pokemon and it is not a Pokemon-EX you cannot move an Energy off of it. If the Defending Pokemon does not have Silver Mirror attached, a Benched non-EX Pokemon with Silver Mirror is a valid target for the choice of where to move the Energy to, but since Silver Mirror prevents all effects of attacks done by Team Plasma Pokemon the Energy would be discarded rather than attached to the Benched Pokemon.

Attacks » Damakinesis | Trainers » Silver Mirror
Say you have Silver Mirror attached to one of your non-EX Pokemon, and it is the only remaining Pokemon. If your opponent's Beheeyem tries to attack with "Damakinesis", the six damage counters obviously don't get moved to the Pokemon with Silver Mirror since Beheeyem is a Team Plasma Pokemon; but do the damage counters get removed and then discarded, or do they not move at all?
The non-EX Pokemon with Silver Mirror attached is a valid target for the choice of where to move the damage counters to, but since Silver Mirror prevents all effects of attacks done by Team Plasma Pokemon the damage counters would be discarded rather than attached to the Defending Pokemon.

Trainers » Random Receiver
Where do I put the Supporter card revealed with Random Receiver?
Read the Random Receiver card and you'll see it goes from the revealed cards into your hand before you shuffle. You do not put the card aside face up on the field nor shuffle before putting it into your hand. This applies to other cards that use the "reveal... put it in your hand... shuffle" template like Ultra Ball, etc.

Trainers » Computer Search
Can you use Computer Search and fail to find a card in your deck?
No, you cannot. When searching for a Pokemon, Trainer, or other particular type of card you can voluntarily fail the search because the contents of the deck are unknown; but when searching for "a card" of any kind the game can tell whether there are cards in the deck and you must take one if instructed to do so. Although the contents of the deck are unknown, the quantity of cards in the deck is known.
