Just lost because the game wouldn't let me free retreat even with a dark attached and Darkrai in play. There were no barriers to it; no Garbodor in play or anything. Fun stuff.
This happens when a pokemon has a dark energy attached BEFORE a darkrai comes into play. The easiest fix is to use hydreigon to move the energy off and back on so that it "registers". If you don't have him, you can use energy switch or just attaché another dark energy, but yeah, it's annoying.

Mew-EX copied Rayquaza's "Shred" and did not take damage from a Pokemon with Rocky Helmet (Actually, I'm just not sure how that is supposed to work, lol).
Also, Garbotoxin still does not shut off Dark Cloak, just in case anyone thought that was fixed. Both were on the same bench and a Tool was attached, if that makes a difference.

I just got myself a theme deck, went to collection -> packs, opened the theme deck. Then if i go to deck builder -> theme decks he is there.
But if I go to the trainer challenge -> change deck he is not there. So now i am also unable to "unlock" the deck by winning 11 battles in the trainer challenge.
Anyone knows how to get my deck there too? Or is it a bug without temp fix and i have to wait for weeks for a fix ?

Twist Mountain is still bugged. Whenever I play an epic super long game, the game freezes after I flip heads for Twist Mountain. It always happens during the lengthy games for some reason.
Is that the one where u look at the bottom x cards? If so, wonder if it has something to do with not having at least that many to search? Could happen in a long game when your deck is low.
Twist mountain is a stadium where if you flip heads then you can play down a restored pokemon from your hand onto the bench.
a small update on this. A player has explained to me that when you redeem a theme deck it goes into your trainer challenge, you get the coin and the theme deck goes into packs to be opened.
So if you trade the theme deck away, the new owner will never get it in their trainer challenge, because you already have it.
So this means...that if you buy a theme deck, you can NOT get it in the trainer challenge, thus you can NOT get the deck unlocks and it is pretty much worthless because the cards are untradeable as well.
So i would NOT recommend to buy any theme decks until the prof's confirm this is a bug and not as it should be. (tried all day, even posted on the forums, but no prof is willing to respond although they do respond on the other topics).

Yeah, I've had that happen many times in trading but even twice during games which was frustrating.

Garbotoxin doesn't prevent Salamence (DV) ability from working.

Salamence's Ability forced me to discard cards even though I had a Rescue Scarf'd Garbodor in play.

LOL.. Almost sounds like a reasonable answer to first turn advantage.
Seriously though, Ive had several problems revolving around retreating Mew2. I'm usually unable to retreat for free with Darkrai in play, I tried shifting all combinations of energy to it to no avail as well.
In another deck with a prism, a grass and a fighting attached I could not choose the grass energy to retreat with. The grass was between the other two and I just couldn't select it either as the first or second pick.

Does anyone think there will come a point where they will be able to fix the bugs in existing cards before the next new set comes out? I used to hold out hope that we'd be able to use this program for playtesting decks to use in real tournaments, but even though the bugs are getting fixed faster than in the old version, it's not looking good.
As far as new bugs go, now when you play a Random Receiver, the cards you reveal just flash on the screen for a split second, and the Supporter immediately goes to your hand. I know before, sometimes it revealed too many cards, but I don't think this "fix" is better. One of the downsides to playing this card in real life is having to reveal cards from your deck to your opponent, and they have effectively taken that away.

My espeon prevented my ninjask from coming back to the bench after attacking, among causing other strange things

Whenever i open a pack i get a completely white screen that totally blocks off everything i got in the pack, and when i go to the deck wizard to try to build a deck myself the whole top area is white as well, so i'm unable to see what i actually put in the deck :/ Also, when i get to the deck selection screen the pokemon tcg logo is there, so i'm unable to choose a deck.
