Official rulings

3 rulings · in English, source Scryfall

If one of the two creatures is an illegal target when Bioshift tries to resolve, or if the creatures are controlled by different players at that time, no counters will move.

You decide how many counters to move when Bioshift resolves.

2013-01-24 · Wizards of the Coast

To move a counter from one creature to another, the counter is removed from the first creature and placed on the second. Any abilities that care about a counter being removed or placed on a creature will apply.
