- If I use Zoroark's "Phantom Transformation" Ability to put a Stage 1 Pokemon from my discard pile in its place, may I evolve it into a Stage 2 Pokemon right away?
- The Stage 1 Pokemon you're putting in play is completely new; nothing carries over, and you can't evolve a Stage 1 that came into play that turn.

- If I attack using Jumpluff with the "Fluffy Barrage" Ability, can I do things like attach an Energy or play a Trainer between attacks?
- No, you would resolve all effects from the first attack and then either perform your second attack or pass. You don't get to go back into the main part of your turn again.

- Does Milotic's "Dew Guard" Ability prevent Supporter cards from removing Tools or Energy from my Pokemon?
- No, Pokemon in play are not part of "you or your hand". But it will prevent your opponent from using something like Marnie to make you put your hand on the bottom of your deck and draw a new hand.

- If I have four Plasma Energy in play, either on the field and/or in the Discard Pile, can I use Colress Machine to search through my deck, find nothing, and shuffle my deck?
- No you cannot. Since the location of all four Plasma Energy cards are known, there's no way Colress Machine would be able to find one during a deck search.

- No, you can't do anything that takes a card from your hand and puts it in the play area after your opponent uses Horror House GX. That includes Abilities, card effects, and attack effects.
