Psychic base damage is 10+20 (2 energy CARDS) = 30 damage. But Kanga is resistant, so subtract 30. Total = 0 damage. >2.

It is a free retreat cost, and of course you don't get to pull energy cards from your discard pile. Unless the card says you can do something like that SPECIFICALLY, otherwise you can't. Brian Brokaw
