Does Path to the Peak stop Ting-Lu EX's ability?
I just played a match where the opponent had Path to the Peak out as the stadium, Ting-Lu EX in their active spot, radiant alakazam, squawkabilly EX, hawlucha (SV), and one other pokemon on the bench.
I had Mismagius (ST) as my active, Bibarel, and radiant alakazam on the bench.
His hawlucha put damage on my Bibarel so Ting Lu's ability stopped it, but shouldn't Ting-Lu EX's ability be stopped by Path to the Peak? He also used his own Radiant Alakazam's ability to move damage onto my Radiant Alakazam, which shouldn't happen again, because Path to the Peak should have stopped his Alakazam since it has a rule box. He also used his Squawkabilly EX's ability from his bench, which again, shouldn't it be stopped since it has a rule box?
When he knocked out my Mismagius, the Spiteful Magic didn't happen because I'm assuming his Ting-Lu EX's ability, but shouldn't the Path to the Peak, which was in play from turn 2, stop both his Ting-Lu EX and his own Radiant Alakazam?

I agree that it wouldn't have made sense for them to play Path to the Peak, but it was definitely on the board since their 2nd turn. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something where ex cards were not affected by PttP or something like that and I was understanding how Path should have worked in this instance.

My first thought when I read the original post was the "1 other pokemon" you mentioned on their bench possibly being 2 actually, solrock and lunatone OBF92. It's the only reason I've seen people trying PttP in decks that might otherwise never play it since the lunatone makes it 1 sided. Other than that I can't think of any cards that would cause this to happen
