  2. Special ConditionsPoison, Burn, Asleep, Paralyzed and Confused, and what happens to each between turns.
  3. Weakness and Resistance×2 and −30, the order damage is worked out in, and a calculator to check an attack.
  4. Prize cardsSix to start, what a Knock Out gives (ex 2, Mega ex 3), and the three ways to win.
  5. How to playSetting up, everything you can do on a turn, attacking, and the first-turn rules.
