If I use Crobat-EX's "Distortion" power and then retreat it for a different Crobat-EX, can I use the second one's Distortion power too? A. Yes, but you can only use each Crobat-EX's Distortion only once per turn, and only when it is currently active. (May 12, 2005 PUI Rules Team) == GREEN ESSENCE (Sceptile - EX:Emerald) [CHRISBO NOTE: Correct minor omission in last week's ruling...] Q. What happens if Sceptile with "Green Essence" enters play when a Pokemon is already affected by a Special Condition?? Are they instantly cured? A. Yes, those Pokemon would lose any Special Conditions on them, providing they have a Grass Energy attached to them. (May 5, 2005 PUI Rules Team) == MYSTIC SCALE (Milotic EX - EX:Emerald) [CHRISBO NOTE: This ruling has been updated for clarity...] Q. I attacked with Ancient Technical Machine [Ice] last turn. During my opponent's turn, he evolves his Feebas into Milotic-EX. Does "Mystic Scale" get rid of my protection for the turn? A. The TM has already been discarded from play at the end of the previous turn. Any effects placed on a Pokemon by the attack from that TM are not canceled and remain.

Say I have Lanturn with both a Double Rainbow Energy and a Multi Energy. When I have to "discard all Lightning Energy", would I have to discard the Multi Energy or not? A. At the time when this portion of the attack is being evaluated, it would not be a Lighting Energy and would not get discarded when the DRE is discarded.
