[BUG] Cynthia's Ambition

I was playing a Rapid Strike Malamar deck against a Cramorant VMax deck. The cramorant flipped coins for it's attack and failed to knock me out. It had Glimwood tangle in play. It chose to reflip those coins, and resulted in a knockout. I played a "shady dealings" drizzle and searched my deck for Cynthia's ambition. With Cynthia's Ambition, I had a total of 5 cards in hand. The game would not allow me to play it to draw till I had 8 cards in hand, even though I had just been knocked out.

    Hi @BKSting,


    Thank you for reporting this. I'll escalate this to the development team for review.

    Did you use a card to get the Pokemon out of the discard pile? It's known that the devs messed up the flag for checking for knockouts by making it check the discard pile for the Pokemon that was knocked out. I don't know why that hasn't been fixed yet, but that could be solved with a "known issues" post...
