Also, unlike the games, when a Pokémon [[move|attacks]], the type of damage it does is based on the Pokémon's ''own'' type and not the type of Energy the attack requires. For example, although {{TCG ID|Team Rocket|Dark Golduck|37}} uses {{TCG|Psychic}} energy to power both of its attacks, the attacks do double damage against a Pokémon weak to {{TCG|Water}} because Dark Golduck's TCG type is Water in this instance. | Also, unlike the games, when a Pokémon [[move|attacks]], the type of damage it does is based on the Pokémon's ''own'' type and not the type of Energy the attack requires.
