Ruling Ditto LA question

[j.payne46]

Hi, with Ditto's ability to copy the opponent's Pokemon's attacks, does also copy type, Poke-Powers, Poke-Body's and Special Effects included in that Pokemon's attacks?

 

[Chairman Kaga]

As the Poke-Body states, Ditto only copies HP and attacks. Other properties are not copied.

When Ditto copies an attack, it copies every aspect of it, including any effects. It's the same as if the attack was printed on Ditto itself.

Cool, thanks for that Chairman Kaga.

If the the Defending Pokemon is A level Up Pokemon. does ditto copy the level up card only?

 

[Kronar]

I'm 99.99% sure that it copies both the LvXs attacks and the attacks of the card beneath it. Ditto would copy the HP of the LvX card only though. The way I have thought of LvXs, is that they just add more attacks/Powers/HP to the regular card.

Ditto copys only the Lv X since it's the Pokemon in game, ditto doesn't copy pokepowers or abilitys.

Ditto copys only the Lv X since it's the Pokemon in game, ditto doesn't copy pokepowers or abilitys.

Q. If Ditto is active against a Lv.X Pokemon, does it have access to the lower level Pokemon's attacks?
A. Yes, it does. The underlying Pokemon's attacks are part of the Lv.X and are therefore copied by Ditto DNA. (Sep 4, 2008 PUI Rules Team)
