wotc
Although you're paying the card's mana cost, you aren't casting that card. Abilities that reduce the cost to cast a creature spell won't apply, and additional costs to cast that creature can't be paid. Alternative costs that affect what it costs to cast a creature spell, such as evoke, can't.
wotc
Any "enters" abilities of the creature will trigger when the token enters. Any "as [this creature] enters" or "[this creature] enters with" abilities of the creature will also work.
