    Ruling Ditto's Copy Anything Clarification

    Sorry if this has been asked and answered. For Ditto's Copy Anything attack it says "Choose 1 of your opponent's Pokémon's attack and use it as this attack." Does this include your opponent's Pokémon that are in their discard pile, or just their Pokémon in the active position or on the bench?

    Discussion Pokemon Customer Support

    It was the TOM program that made an egregious pairing error. The pairing contradicted the Pokemon Tournament Procedures for Aged Modified Swiss (section 3.1.2). The TO the head judge and the other participants were all confused when the 2 Juniors with 2-0-0 records were not paired for the...

    Help Strange League Cup Pairing

    I know that TOM is terrible and glitchy at best. I run a League and am a TO myself. I know the organizer of this tournament as we have run tournaments together. I don't want him to get involved, because I know how frustrating it can be dealing with Pokémon. This is one of the reasons that...

    Help Strange League Cup Pairing

    Ruling Double Knockout to Finish Match

    Minior's (GRI) attack Cosmicplosion does 190 but "This Pokemon is Knocked Out". You and your opponent both have 1 prize card each. You have a Pokemon on your bench, but your opponent does not. If you used this attack to knock out your opponents last active Pokemon what is the result.

    Ruling Clarification on Attack's Effects (Metagross GX, Lapras GX)

    I didn't think the text from attacks were "Special Conditions", but were effects to follow after the attack. Is there some clarification in the rules that classify the attack text as Special Conditions? I understood that Special Conditions were: Poison, Burned, Asleep, Paralyzed, Confused.

    Ruling Adding Damage to Attacks

    Do damage accelerators add damage to an attack that has no base damage or does the attack have to have a base damage for them to work? If a Strong Energy and a Choice Band are attached to a fighting type Pokemon who's attack does no damage, would the Strong Energy and Choice Band do 50 damage...

    Ruling Clarification on Attack's Effects (Metagross GX, Lapras GX)

    The Metagross GX attack Giga Hammer states "This Pokemon can't use Giga Hammer during your next turn". If after I use the attack, on my next turn, I move it to my bench, and then move it back to the active position, can I use Giga Hammer again? In the PTCGO it allows me to switch the Metagross...
