I think I know th answer 2 this, but just cecking:

Poke-Body: Catastrophe
As long as this Pokemon is your Active Pokemon, if an opponent’s Pokemon is Knocked Out, that Pokemon is placed in the Lost Zone. (All cards other than Pokemon cards are discarded.)

and

[P][P][C] Shadow Skip: 60 damage. This attack also does 10 damage to 1 of your opponent’s Benched Pokemon. You may switch Gengar with one of your Benched Pokemon.

If i attack w/ cursegar and KO the active, then switch 2 Gengar Prime. Does the KO'd Pokémon go to the Lost Zone?
 
Yes it can. Hit-and-run attacks are described in the Lost Link FAQ:

Q: If I bring Gengar Active after dealing damage with Farfetch’d’s (HS) “Spin Turn” attack, can a Pokemon that’s Knocked Out by damage from the Spin Turn attack be placed in the Lost Zone ?
A: Yes, it can. First, all effects of the attack are processed, then Pokemon with no HP remaining are determined to be Knocked Out. So, since Gengar’s Catastrophe Poke-Body is in effect at the time when the opponent’s Pokemon is determined to be Knocked Out, the Knocked Out Pokemon can be placed in the Lost Zone.
