Ruling Potions, Coin Flips, and the Like

I had some questions. The card Super Potion and Max Potion heal HP to one of your Pokemon, but require you to discard energy. If you have no energy on said Pokemon to begin with, does the Potion do nothing? Also, the Victory Star ability on Victini allows you to re-flip coins, but only for attacks. Are there any Abilities, Supporters, or Items that allow you to do the same thing with items, like Catcher and Roller Skates?
 
Please post scans of the cards in question.

thanks!

For the healing part of your question; You may use max potion as long as you have a pokemon that has damage on it. It does NOT need to have energy attached. IF it DOES have energy attached, you must discard all energy. For Super Potion (be sure to provide all scans in the future) you can also heal without any energy attached; but if there IS energy attached you must discard the required amount of energy which is 1 for Super Potion.

As for reflipping; yes Victini only applies to flips in conjunction with Attacks. I am unaware of any mechanics in current format that will allow for you to reflip for non attack related flipping. maybe one of the other professors knows of something?
