    collfo 1 prize
    p3ngu 2 prizes
    Collfo 1 prize
    P3ngu 1 prize
    P3ngu 2 prizes
    Collfo 2 prizes

    P3ngu devo's and one of your Goldengo's on the bench had more damage on it than the health of your gimmigoul it got devolved into and they took their last prize. Devolution only removed the evolutions it doesnt remove the damage already done to pokemon. This is why lists used to run it to fight charizard ex decks

    Also this probably shouldnt be in feedback/bugs as the card works fine
