Extra prize card Glitch

has anyone else experienced a glitch where players are taking 1 extra prize card after knocking out your Pokémon? I’ve seen players take 3 prize cards when an ex Pokémon is knocked out. And I’ve seen my opponent take 4 prize cards when knocking out my vmax Pokémon. No stadiums are in play or abilities are used to add the extra card. And I have the game logs to prove it. What is going on?🤯

    Are you playing in expanded? If so Arceus/Dialga/Palkia gx has an attack that grants that as a buff for the rest of the game. (allows their attacks to deal 30 more damage, and, if an extra water energy was attached, they take 1 more prize card for each ko)

    for the vmaxes it's possible your opponent used a sky stone seal, but i'm not sure about how they got an extra prize on an ex if you're actually playing standard.

    There was a Prism Star Jirachi in SM that allowed players to take an extra prize if they took the Jirachi off the prize cards, maybe that's what happened?

    never encountered any of those cards during the play through. I am on the expanded, so I review every card they use to try and figure it out, and no card has shown that ability.

    If you have the logs, then post them. I already know the answer (hint: you didn't read the card attacking you), but posting the logs to confirm would be a good idea.
