I'm going to be reviewing the issues with PTCGO- please let me know of any other problems that may be going on that I haven't seen on the PTCGO forums.

New one discovered today, may have been posted on PTCGO Forums but not seeing in known issues by the dev team: if Persian GX is active following a GX knockout, you can Catwalk once while in active and again when put to the bench.

So for a bug like this one, should you expect your opponent to follow the "honor system" and only Calkwalk once??


Beast energy is temporary banned due to a bug, it does 30 bench damage or something under certain circumstances.

Beast energy is temporary banned due to a bug, it does 30 bench damage or something under certain circumstances.


I would think that an honor system should work for most of the bugs that are exploitable, like the Persian one, especially since we have the ability to post the game logs if needed to prove cheating. Anything with item lock would likely not be allowed in play because of this I assume.

The biggest issues I think are the bugs that would cause unavoidable breaks in the game state. Such as incorrect damage calculations and etc. - You mentioned beast energy being banned for this reason, which 100% sucks since a number of upper tier decks utilize the card as part of their game plan, and are set back due to the ban (I wouldn’t play most variants of ZapBeasts knowing that beast energy is not part of the 60). Other current bugs along this line include Jirachi not having weakness - there are plenty of circumstances where ReshiZard with a shrine tick could use Outrage to KO a Jirachi, but the bug would prevent that. What would our option be in this case? I guess this is my main reason for bringing it up - to find out how we would deal with these scenarios. I’d like to make my deck choice based on that knowledge as well.

@PokeMedic would it be possible to include a beast energy and as long the card is temporary banned cuz of the bug you can play a unit energy instead?

For example in Blacephalon baby or big one, you can play it without having any difference besides the added 30 damage. and technically it does not go to the lost zone but in standard there is no way to recover special energies atleast not without guru or other attacks that are uncommon in the deck?
i assume that thats the Bug that is most relevant currently on the meta game. and it would be kinda fair to let ppl note a sudo-proxy in their deck list for beast energy and if the card gets fixed while the tounament is going they can change back.

Unit energy over normal fire cuz it is not search able with beast ring or viridian, so it actually is as accesable(except lisia, and guru recovery, which both usually is not played in neither Blacephalon varient)

If someone wants to play a Buzz list i guess it would work somewhat with unit aswell, but not as fair since usually buzz plays fighting attacker that are not fighting that could use unit energy as fighting energy in this case.

Same would go for balcephalon if they play a other fire attacker.
