    Hariyama ex Pivot Throw

    Is the effect of Pivot Throw on Hariyama ex or is it on the opponent's active (Defending Pokemon)? The effect makes it sound like it is on Hariyama ex but wouldn't the helping text saying the effect is before W&R mean the effect is on the opponent's active, which is the attacking pokemon during...

    Thank you Team Compendium!

    I tried posting this on the Facebook page but I don't know if it went through so I'm posting it here. 20 years ago, someone had the forethought to collect the rulings into a single document. Those documents are still answering questions. Thank you for maintaining them!

    N's Resolve and no Dragon Pokemon

    Can you use this Supporter card if you have no Dragon Pokemon in play? Is discarding cards from the top of your deck in this way, rather than from the hand, considered a cost? Without a Dragon Pokemon in play, playing N's Resolve would be a discard when it is known there will be no effect other...

    Close Combat and Buffer Piece

    Originally asked 10/27/12 pokegym.net/forums/showthread.php?t=170312, can you play Rare Candy when there is an Archeops in play? The original question mentions that Potion can be played even if its effect is blocked, such as when there is a Solrock with Poke-Body Heal Block in play. The idea...

    Mary vs Professor Oak's Visit

    There are 0 cards in the deck. Does the ruling on Professor Oak's Visit change the ruling on Mary? The POV ruling makes more sense. If you cannot do the first part, then you wouldn't be able to do the second part.

    Re: Re: Hurricane vs Recoil effects

    From: http://pokegym.net/forums/showthread.php?t=162994 I am not understanding this. This means that cards that leave play but have effects that trigger after an action's completion would still get their effects in. Are there any previous rulings to support that? That answer made remember...

    Next Destinies poor quality (mint scratches)

    I am opening a fresh box of Next Destines booster packs and I noticed that the common and uncommon cards--fresh out of the packs--have straight scratches/grooves across random parts of the card. The scratches are visible when looking at the cards in the light, so they are not too obvious. Two...
