  We report on the pulse-to-pulse energy distributions and phase-resolved
modulation properties for catalogued pulsars in the southern High Time
Resolution Universe intermediate-latitude survey. We selected the 315 pulsars
detected in a single-pulse search of this survey, allowing a large sample
unbiased regarding any rotational parameters of neutron stars. We found that
the energy distribution of many pulsars is well-described by a log-normal
distribution, with few deviating from a small range in log-normal scale and
location parameters. Some pulsars exhibited multiple energy states
corresponding to mode changes, and implying that some observed "nulling" may
actually be a mode-change effect. PSRJ1900-2600 was found to emit weakly in its
previously-identified "null" state. We found evidence for another state-change
effect in two pulsars, which show bimodality in their nulling time scales; that
is, they switch between a continuous-emission state and a single-pulse-emitting
state. Large modulation occurs in many pulsars across the full integrated
profile, with increased sporadic bursts at leading and trailing sub-beam edges.
Some of these high-energy outbursts may indicate the presence of "giant pulse"
phenomena. We found no correlation with modulation and pulsar period, age, or
other parameters. Finally, the deviation of integrated pulse energy from its
average value was generally quite small, despite the significant phase-resolved
modulation in some pulsars; we interpret this as tenuous evidence of energy
regulation between distinct pulsar sub-beams.
