Wasn't allowed to select Squawkabilly ex when playing Accompanying Flute
Played Accompanying Flute and opponent had Squawkabilly in the five cards, but the game wouldn't allow me to select it. Not sure if this problem has to be dealt with on a card-by-card basis, so that's the reason I'm mentioning it. It's pretty crazy that the issue of selecting certain cards being blocked by the client has persisted as an issue since PTCGL was released; it's a pretty major bug. How many games have I won or lost because a player wasn't allowed to select a card they needed off a searching effect, and both me and my opponent were deprived of a proper game of Pokemon. Pokemon is a pretty fast game; being denied the card you are legally allowed to search for can decide the outcome of the game. Fixing this should be the #1 priority, as it has continued to be a plague diminishing the quality of games and souring the PTCGL experience.
