For the Aquapolis Nidoking's "Crystal Type" power, it mentions Fire as one of the energy types it can change into. Is this a typo since none of the attacks on the card use fire energy? (You meant to print Fighting in the Crystal Type power, right?) A. It was misprinted. The Crystal Pokemon's Power should list the three types of energy used in its attacks." (Jan 23, 2003 WotC Chat, Q643; Jan 30, 2003 WotC Chat, Q794; Apr 10, 2003 WotC Chat, Q1177 & Q1182) ***** PREVIOUS RULING: THIS ONE HAS SINCE BEEN OVERRULED; See Above ***** Q. Crystal Nidoking's Power has a fire energy symbol, but its attacks do not use fire energy. Should the fire symbol be a fighting symbol instead? A. Play as written for now; it should be Fighting though, so we will check on it.

If I have a non-holo Neo Revelation Raikou (the one with Legendary Body) as my active pokemon, can I use a Lightning Cube to attack with him, and if so, do I have to discard the energy cards attached to Raikou? A. Yes, you can and yes you still have to discard the energy because that is a cost. (Apr 10, 2003 WotC Chat, Q1137) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- POKEMON ATTACKS ---------------------------------------------------------------------- == GENETIC MEMORY (Kingdra - Neo: Revelation Expansion) Q. Genetic Memory Kingdra question for the league: if Kingdra uses Seadra's Agility, does it work, since Agility specifies "damage done to Seadra"? A. Yes, when it is used through Genetic Memory it references Kingdra due to the self-referencing rule.
