Inviting Trap vs Unown G on Active

[BENDINGSPOONS1]

If i use my trapinch from Secret Wonders to inviting trap one of my opponent's pokemon on the bench (but my opponent's active has an unown g attached), can i switch the pokemon???

 

[lucario aura wielder]

no unknown g prevents the switch

IMO, why Unown G prevents the switch is because the attack is telling you to switch the active Pokemon (With Unown G) with the bench, so the active can not be switched, the attack fails.

If Unown G is attached to the Active Pokemon, then it prevents the effect of switching (as it affects both the Active Pokemon and the selected Benched Pokemon). So the switch would fail in this case.

There was a debate about this at Worlds when the situation came up in a game involving a Japanese player (possibly Yamato), but as of this writing no rulings changes have been announced, so judges should be continuing to rule as stated above.
