Poké-POWER ⇢ GUARD
Once during your turn (before your attack), if Unown G is on your Bench, you may discard all cards attached to Unown G and attach Unown G to 1 of your Pokémon as a Pokémon Tool card. As long as Unown G is attached to a Pokémon, prevent all effects of attacks, excluding damage, done to that Pokémon.
{P}{C} → Hidden Power : 50
If Unown G has any damage counters on it, this attack’s base damage is 10.

For anyone who was wondering:
Q. Does Unown G’s “GUARD” Poke-POWER prevent effects from attacks that the Unown G is attached to?
A. No, the Poke-POWER only prevent effects from an opponent’s attacks, not your own. Unown-G’s “GUARD” Poke-POWER should say, “As long as Unown G is attached to a Pokemon, prevent all effects of attacks, excluding damage, done to that Pokemon by your opponent’s Pokemon”.

So no, Unown G doesn’t let you do things like get a guaranteed kill with Mamoswine · Stormfront (SF) #21.
