Can Neo: Discovery Eevee's "Energy Evoloution" or TR Magikarp's "Rapid Evolution" cause promo Eevee's "Chain Reaction" power to activate? Both of those cards say "this counts as evolving" that pokemon. A. Yes. (May 30, 2002 WotC Chat, Q375) ***** PREVIOUS RULING: THIS ONE HAS SINCE BEEN OVERRULED; See Above ***** Q. Does Neo 2 Eevee's Energy Evoloution activate promo Eevee's Chain Reaction, how about on first turn? A. No it would not. Eevee's Chain Reaction is only triggered by a Pokemon evolving normally, meaning a card taken from your hand. A triggered evolution like effect would NOT trigger Chain Reaction. (May 16, 2002 WotC Chat, Q209) == HOWL (Entei - Neo: Revelation Expansion) Q. Is Entei's Howl optional (before you discard, can you decide not to?) A. Yes it is. (May 30, 2002 WotC Chat, Q425) Q. If Magby has Sputtered, can Entei Howl? A. Yes...Howl all day...like my Beagles! [Ed.Note: This is because Entei's power takes effect "when coming into play from your hand", whereas Magby's Sputter does not affect such powers until the card is actually "in play". See "Sputter" for more details.] (May 30, 2002 WotC Chat, Q418) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- POKEMON ATTACKS ---------------------------------------------------------------------- == STUN POISON (Gligar - Neo: Destiny Expansion) Q. Will the Neo Destiny Gligar really put a pkmn poisoned and paralyzed at the same time or do I have to choose one of them? A. Both of them. (May 30, 2002 WotC Chat, Q390) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- UNOWN CARDS ---------------------------------------------------------------------- == XXXXX (Unown-X - Neo: Destiny Expansion) Q. Does Unown-X pokemon power add 10 damage for each heads plus the original 10 or 20 of the other Unown? A. Yes, it adds to the base damage of the Unown that is attacking.
