in Pokémon TCG Live Bugs & Feedback #1

I just finished a game on PTCGL where a player attacked with Zoroark using Rampaging Thunder. I got him down to 1 card in hand and passed the turn because I knew there was no way for him to attack me again. He switched to another Zoroark using Pecharunt ex’s Ability, then played N’s Castle, switched back to the same Zoroark, and attacked me again using Darmanitan’s Flamebody Cannon.

Is there a bug going on when you switch between them, or am I missing something?

    Hi, xr1steu, and thanks for reporting this "bug" to us.

    When you switch your Active Pokémon with 1 of your Benched ones, all effects on your previous Active Pokémon, such as Special Conditions, "can't attack" (or "can't use attacks"), etc. will end. This means that if a Zoroark used an attack that makes it can't attack again during your next turn, it can be switched out and switched back in (anyway) in order to attack again.

    If everything I explained can't help you, click/tap the button below to contact the support team:

    Thanks again!
