New player here with a question. So Raticate Break's Super Fang takes an opponent's Pokémon down to 10 health. If I have a Choice Band from Guardians Rising attached to it and my opponent has an EX or GX Pokémon active, does the 30 extra damage get applied to knock out that Pokémon? Thanks.

Choice Band only increases the damage done if the attack does damage.

Super Fang does not do damage, but places damage counters.

If you want Super Fang to score an effective OHKO, you'll need something like Ariados (AOR) to inflict Poison via its Ability, before you attack with Super Fang. :)

Thanks for the clarification. Appreciate it.
