Trainers » Apricorn Maker
Can Apricorn Maker be used to search for the Trainer "Bursting Balloon"? Taking the card literally, Bursting *BALL*oon contains the exact same "Ball" as given on Apricorn Maker.
Of course not, don't be silly! You can only search for cards like Poke Ball, Ultra Ball, Beast Ball, etc.

Attacks » Pheromone Catch
What happens if I try to use Volbeat's "Pheromone Catch" attack, but Illumise was KO'd during my opponent's previous turn?
Volbeat's Pheromone Catch is a game state check; it doesn't matter if Illumise is even in play anymore. As long as one of your Illumise used Pheromone Signals during your previous turn, you get the bonus when using Pheromone Catch.

Attacks » Meteor Mash
If I use Metagross' "Meteor Mash" attack several turns in succession, does the damage keep piling up as 60, 120, 180, 240, etc.?
No, Meteor Mash tops out at 120. It only adds +60 to the base 60 damage, it does not accumulate on successive turns.

Attacks » Harden
If I use Seedot's "Harden" attack which prevents any attack damage that is 40 or less during the opponent's next turn, does that come before or after calculating for Weakness/Resistance?
Weakness & Resistance are factored in before determining whether Harden blocks it or not. So if a fire Pokemon's attack does 30 damage to Seedot and then +30 more is added for Seedot's Weakness, Harden would not prevent the damage. However, if the fire Pokemon's attack does 20 damage to Seedot and then +20 more is added for Seedot's Weakness, Harden would prevent the damage.

Attacks » Giga Drain
If Dhelmise does "Giga Drain" and the Defending Pokemon only has 10 HP left, does Dhelmise still heal itself for 30 damage?
Yes, because the 30 damage is still done, even though it is more than enough to KO the Defending Pokemon.

Attacks » Even Game
If my bench is full and I use Luvdisc's "Even Game" attack, does that allow me to exceed my normal bench size like Sky Field does?
Sorry, but no. You can't put more Pokemon on your bench than you are allowed to.

Abilities » Wish Upon a Star
What happens with Jirachi {*}'s "Wish Upon a Star" Ability if Garbodor's "Garbotoxin" Ability or "Hex Maniac" are active?
Jirachi (*) is never in the zones mentioned by those cards when you use its Ability, so Wish Upon a Star will work.
