Can I use Vulpix's or Zorua's "Ascension" attack on the first turn of the game?

Yes. This attack can evolve a Pokémon, even during the first turn of the game.

EX Hidden Legends Feebas is receiving errata for its "Ascension" attack to bring it in line with the Japanese version of the card. It should read, "Flip a coin. If heads, search your deck for a card that evolves from Feebas and put it on Feebas. (This counts as evolving Feebas.) Shuffle your deck afterward." Please note that this only affects Feebas; Vulpix's "Ascension" attack does not require a coin flip.
