@developers
Bug is still valid right now” and leave it unresolved.
, unless it’s not a bug. I searched the WoTC PokeGym Compendium and couldn’t find an answer to whether Frog Song or Pollen Defense should go first. Could someone please clarify?
(P.S. this was the last unresolved bug report from 2018, and is the first bug report I tested for TCGONE.)
The Pokémon Power Frog Song takes effect during damage calculation. After damage is calculated, the damage is done and then the Pokémon Power Pollen Defense takes effect. This is just in the order of things stated in the (Japanese below) rulebooks.
- Damage calculation
Calculate the damage dealt based on the damage written to the right of the move’s name.
If the move’s description contains any information about damage, follow that.
→ Damage calculation procedure
reference below- Effects other than damage
If the move description includes anything other than damage, follow that. Unless there are any special instructions, do everything in the move description in order.- Effects that work when the opponent’s Pokémon takes damage
If the opponent’s battle Pokémon has “effects that work when it takes damage”, follow those.
And further, damage calculation (during Neo era, though I’m using Gen 1 rules as Neo just clarifies Special Energy) is defined as:
- Calculate the base damage (damage dealt by the move).
- Calculate the “effects that change damage” possessed by the Pokémon using the move.
For example, this includes the Pokémon Powers possessed by the Pokémon using the move, and the effects of moves such as “Scyther” and “Swords Dance”.
If there are multiple “effects that change damage” that overlap, the player using the move decides the order in which they are calculated.- If the type of the Pokémon using the move is a type that is a “weakness” of the Pokémon receiving the move, the damage is doubled.
- If the type of the Pokémon using the move is a type that is a “resistance” of the Pokémon receiving the move, the resistance number is subtracted from the damage.
- If the Pokémon using the move has a Trainer Card effect (such as “Plus Power”), calculate that.
If there are multiple Trainer Card effects overlapping, the player using the move decides the order in which to calculate them.- If there are any effects (such as “Defender”) from “Trainer Cards” on the Pokémon that is being attacked, calculate those effects.
If there are multiple effects from “Trainer Cards” overlapping, the player who is being attacked decides the order in which they are calculated.- Calculate any “Damage Modification” effects that the Pokémon being damaged has.
For example, this includes the “Harden” move of Onix and the “Invisible Wall” Pokémon Power of Mr. Mime.
If there are multiple “Damage Modification” effects, the player who will receive the damage decides the order in which they are calculated.
