Magnezone's Giga Magnet ability unaffected by Klefki's Mischevious Lock

EverydayPaladin

Was playtesting a Banette EX deck, oppenent was playing a Dialga turbo deck and I opened the game with Klefki in the active. By turn two I still have klefki in the active and on his turn 2 he uses rare candy to evolve to magnezone and immediately uses gigamagnet and gets 4 energy off the top and instantly charges dialga. I obviously proceed to lose the entire match to a 5 energy dialga Vstar switched to the active on turn 2 with star chronos.

I don't know if it was a problem with the rare candy interaction or if it's magnezone that is bugged but please fix this.

Klefki removes the abilities of basic Pokemon. Magnezone is an evolution Pokemon and is no longer a basic Pokemon.

To tech an Bunnysauce. I had this still happen with solroc deck. I will admit I not much of a deck builder but the card says you a your opponent. Yet they can still their abilities an I’m locked out?

Was it in the active?

bigbobo

yes it was in the active spot. The other trainer was still able to use there abilities. A big question is going back to the match. Is it should still effect EX an V mon correct?

Yes, if they're basics. Remember that it only affects basics.
