GGA tag

What happens if one sets the GGA tag in the INCAR file and it uses the GGA pseudopotentials? I understand that the GGA tag can be used only on LDA pseudopotentials. I am wrong?

Thank you,

the GGA tag can be set for any kind of PP, though it is not recommended to do so (except to set it to RP)

So, if I want to try the RPBE I will set the GGA tag to RP in the INCAR file and then I will use the LDA POTCAR or the PBE POTCAR?
