Kirlia SIT 68 and Gardevoir SIT 69 bug?

Saminmypants

During a match I used the refinement ability of a Kirlia I put into play the previous turn. I then evolved into Gardevoir with the intention of using refinement again but the game would not allow me to use the ability.

I checked the compendium for a possible ruling to explain this and found nothing.

Sounds like it's coded incorrectly - you should be able to use Gardevoir's ability since it's not a once-per-turn ability. Are you able to use two refinement abilities if you have two different Kirlias on the bench?

I think I have seen this bug, but I'm not sure, you can definitely use kirlia's refinement and Gardevoir's ability  in same turn, after kirlia evolves, I have been doing it before this update.

I have been using kirlia and gardevoir in the same turn after evolving at in-person events and have received no argument from judges. I also believe this is just a coding error. I'll try to use two different benched kirlias now and see what happens

We've discovered yet another coding shortcut due to the devs not knowing how to play the game!
