Special Rules

No Shuffling

You may not play any items or trainers that have the word “shuffle”. Play in this context meaning In Play (Active Spot &or Bench): Discard, Deck, &or Hand are not In Play. You may not use any attacks or abilities that have the word “shuffle”. This includes all conjugations of the word (shuffles, shuffled, etc.). If you use an effect that has the word shuffle, you will receive a Game Loss.

Examples:

  • If you play Furfrou (POR 067), you can use its “Hand Trim” attack.. Choosing a random card does not require your opponent to shuffle their hand.
  • If you evolve your Marnie’s Morgrem into Marnie’s Grimmsnarl ex (DRI 136), you may use the Shadow Bullet attack. You cannot use the ability “Punk Up”.
  • If you play Meowth (POR 062 ), you cannot use the ability “Last-Ditch Catch”.
  • If you play Eevee (SCR 113), you cannot use the attack “Call for Family”
