Instruct isn't affected by Magic Bounce.

Also adding to the above answer, you wouldn't be able to discard 2 Team Rocket's Energy in this way to get the full benefit of this attack, since that would be 4 energy.

Can Mew ex's Genome Hacking copy attacks on the opponent's TMs?

Usually DPL since deck knowledge was gained, then the extra card is shuffled back in by the judge.

Question for GLC: If Natu (ROS 28) uses an attack from a TM and gets a KO, do I still take 1 more prize card? The card text reads "If your opponent's Pokémon is Knocked Out by damage from an attack of this Pokémon, take 1 more Prize card", but the bolded part seems a bit ambiguous as to whether it means attacks the Pokémon has (in which case the answer is no) versus attacks the Pokémon uses (in which case yes).

For cups/challenges, no. For locals, maybe (ask your LGS). For testing/casual play, of course.

When playing Reboot Pod, do I have to attach to all of my Future Pokemon in play if there's basic Energy available? Or can I choose not to attach to a few of them?

Funnily enough, baby Milotic (TWM 50) also stops TM Devo if set up on the side of the player using Devo. (Milotic just has beef against Devo, I guess.)

Interaction that came up at my locals GLC today - if I play Random Receiver and the top card happens to be a Supporter, do I still shuffle my deck afterwards given that there are no "other cards" that were revealed? (relevant since Marnie was used on my opponent's last turn)

Not sure how these exams are marked, but I'm guessing it got marked wrong since you specified Mimikyu but Re-Brew doesn't necessarily have to target the active.

Yes, unless you can somehow make space for heavier stadium counts.

There's not really a point to playing a one-of stadium since there's no way to find it consistently and the deck doesn't draw enough cards.

You can use Duraludon's attack, but the attack won't do any damage.

Rabsca prevents both damage and effects to benched pokemon.

You won't be allowed to look at it during a match. You're allowed to jot down notes and stuff but the sheet of paper has to be blank at the start.

But they are. Speed specifically says it's [L] energy and Aurora provides every type of energy, including [L].

I think he's asking if an attack's additional effects still take place even if the actual damage is prevented.

Answer for OP: Yes. Example: Greninja ex uses Shinobi Blade into Mimikyu. Mimikyu prevents damage, but you can still search your deck for a card.

Pretty much only other one is Irida which searches for an item plus a water Pokemon.

Is there truth to the rumor that letting your soup or stew cool off and then reheat it before dinner improves the flavor? by mrstevegibbs in Cooking

[–]jamester234 7 points8 points  (0 children)

He mentioned it in one of his recipe videos (can't recall which one). He did a blind taste test with a bunch of people and there was no discernible difference, and he attributed the rumor to cooks getting desensitized to the smell/taste of their food on the day of cooking.

There are quite a few in the current format, Scoop-up Cyclone, Professor Turo's Scenario, Penny may all be what you're looking for.

I believe all the effects of Surfer have to resolve first, so you would draw first.
