[jamie756]: thats weird why exp all didnt trigger
[Axelsj]: probably dont register placing damage counters as taking damage… game is broken…
@developers
Unless there is a special ruling i am not aware of, you are absolutely correct. Bumping so the devs can fix it.
Bumping this one as its from about 4 years ago and does not seem to be marked as resolved
@Testers can you please revalidate & add more information?
The active pokemon was knocked out by an effect, but since EXP.ALL doesn’t specify damage, the EXP.ALL attached to Vulpix should have allowed to move a basic energy from the active to the benched pokemon BUT
The FRLG print is mistranslated and never got errata; it should only trigger when “1 of your Active Pokémon is Knocked Out by damage from your opponent’s attack.”
Q. Player 1 has an active Dark Slowking with 50 damage and a Dark and a Psychic energy attached to it. He also had a benched Slowpoke with an EXP.ALL attached. Player 2 attacks with ATM Rock. Would the attack with the ATM Rock that knocked out his now-devolved Slowpoke activate the EXP.ALL?
A. EXP.ALL does not trigger from a KO of your Active Pokémon if the KO is a result of devolving. The EXP.ALL should only activate when KO’d due to damage, just like Jumpluff’s “Buffer”.
I think we can assume this is the case for the Neo Destiny print, too
So, this is not a bug?
Not a bug 
By the way, I am marking these rulings in the code so hopefully some day we’ll have a central database of over-rulings / erratas that are also visible in the game. But for that I have to do a very expensive refactoring operation in the backend, which I plan to do after resolving about 90% bug reports in this forum.
