If a Lugia LEGEND that only has 3 Rainbow Energy cards attached to it uses its “Elemental Blast” attack, do I discard the Rainbow Energy?
Yes, you discard them. As long as Rainbow Energy is attached to a Pokemon, it functions as 1 unit of every Type of Energy, so it functions as the Fire, Water, and Lightning Types. As a result, if you use Lugia LEGEND’s Elemental Blast attack, discard the 3 Rainbow Energy cards as one unit apiece of Fire, Water, and Lightning-type Energy.
