Are Team Magma's Groudon and Team Aqua's Kyogre themselves counted as a Team Magma's/Aqua's Pokémon for their own "Power Saver" Poke-BODY? A. Yes, that is correct. (Jan 13, 2005 PUI Rules Team) == SAFEGUARD (Wobbuffet - EX:Sandstorm; Ninetales - EX:Hidden Legends; Dewgong - EX:Fire Red / Leaf Green) [CHRISBO NOTE: Add Ninetales & Dewgong to the header text.] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- POKEMON ATTACKS ---------------------------------------------------------------------- == DARK LINK (Dark Hypno - EX:Team Rocket Returns) Q. Say I have Dark Hypno active with 2 Psychic energy, and Dark Ampharos on the bench with 1 Lightning energy. If I use Dark Hypno's "Dark Link" attack to copy my Dark Amphy's "Shock Bolt", would I have to discard the (L) energy on Dark Ampharos? A. Not from Dark Ampharos. However, if the Dark Hypno has any L energy attached to it, those must be discarded when copying Shock Bolt. (Jan 13, 2005 PUI Rules Team) == MAGMA SPURT (Team Magma's Houndoom - EX:Team Magma/Team Aqua) Q. Can I use TM Houndoom's "Magma Spurt" when there are only 4 or less cards left in my deck? A. Yes, you can. (Jan 13, 2005 PUI Rules Team) == RAINBOW MOVES (Togetic - EX:Team Rocket Returns) Q. Togetic uses "Rainbow Moves" to copy Quagsire's "Hyper Pump" attack. Togetic has 3 basic energies attached to it, so does the attack do 20 damage, 60 damage, or 80 damage? A. Quagsire's Hyper Pump adds damage after the attack cost, but it is being copied by Togetic which has a 3 attack cost. Therefore no extra damage is added, so only 20 is done.

TIME MACHINE (EX:Team Rocket Returns) Q. Lets say I have like a Kirlia active with a DRE on it, and then use "Suprise! Time Machine" for a different Kirlia. Would the DRE get discarded because it is devolved back into Ralts? A. Yes, once it becomes a Ralts, it is discarded. It doesn't matter that it will evolve again.
