Heatmor and charizard ex bug

I don't know if these are bugs or I just missed something but in regards to heatmor(041/264):

Exciting Flame's description reads: If this pokemon has at least 3 extra energy attached (in addition to this attack's cost), this attack also does 180 damage to 1 of your opponent's benched pokemon.

How I've been experiencing it in game: they're able to do 180 damage to my benched pokemon while they only have 3 energies attached to the card (not in addition)


Secondly, for charizard ex(125/197)... I don't know if I missed a damager multiplier played or something but his Burning Darkness attack did 600 damage for some reason.

His attack description reads: This attack does 30 more damage for each prize card your opponent has taken.

I only had taken one prize card and my pokemon didnt have a weakness to fire. My pokemon was Shadow Rider Calyrex VMax for reference. In theory I should have taken 180+30 damage... not 600.


Thanks

    Did your opponent have Pokemon GO's Charizard in play? Its ability 'Burn Brightly' doubles Fire energy, so Heatmor would only need 3 energy to get the bonus effect from Exciting Flame

    And OBF's Charizard ex isn't a Fire type, it's Darkness type - which your Calyrex is weak to.

    In regards to the Heatmor, did your opponent have the Charizard from Pokemon GO in play? Its ability makes each Fire energy count as 2 Fire energy, so 3 energy would effectively become 6.

    On the Charizard ex front, it's important to remember the tera Charizard ex is actually a dark type Pokemon, and Shadow Rider Calyrex Vmax is weak to dark. So, if you had taken 4 prizes, your opponent's Charizard ex would hit for 180+(4*30), which would be 300, which would then be doubled for weakness to hit for 600.

    The "I didn't read all cards and instead made a random assumption" bug strikes again.
