No valid cards game breaking bug
After the new update, on the PC version I have been having some visual bugs, but the no valid cards bug is the most game breaking I have experienced.
I have already played on a PC before and decided to install the game on my laptop. I worked fine until the day I'm writting this post (22/09/2023), the game asked for the update and I complied. I got into the game and on the first ranked match I drawed Clavell and as the second player I used and it said no valid cards. I assumed that it could be an unfortunate bug with that card and tried to used an Ultra Ball and it said the same thing, which forced me to concede the game since I wasted 2 cards and it would cost the game anyway.
Tried to play another match, the game soft crashed on my first draw after setup phase. It just stay locked with the drawn card in the middle of the screen and didn't let me play anything, it even went to the turn timer and finished my first turn without letting me play. In this match I had to force quit the game (Alt+F4) since I couldn't use the menus.
Played one last and final match, not ranked since I didn't want to risk another loss because the game soft-locks. I draw a Clavell again on my first hand, played and again, no valid cards. I conceded on the spot.
I played these matches on a laptop with a Ryzen 5 3550h 4-cores, a Radeon RX 560X and 8GB RAM, with all the drivers updated.
I won't play on the PC while these bugs exist and barely play on Android since it overheats my phone and consumes battery like no other game or app I ever used. Comparable TCG like MTGArena is a lot more complex and doesn't have a fith of the bugs...

Hi, I'm having this issue in all my decks while playing on PC. I saw by your description that we have something in common: AMD processors. Perhaps this issue only happens in computers with AMD Ryzen processors. My son play with me using a 4th gen Intel i5 and nothing happens to him. I know Intel is majority when comes to processors, perhaps the developers didn't tested as they should with different archtetures. Hope Nintendo could find this error

I disagree, it happened on my Acer Nitro 5, which has an Intel Core i5 (10th Gen) CPU. Some more known cards affected by this are Mirage Gate, Battle VIP Pass, and Colress's Experiment (below):
Some Pokémon's Abilities can also suffer from this bug, such as Luminous Sign from Lumineon V.

remove all trainer cards from PGO and CRZ sets and it should be working,
i fixed it like that to my Pokemon community members
and i mention it few months ago as I wrote here: https://community.pokemon.com/en-us/discussion/4598/pokemon-go-set-trainer-cards-game-bugs-searching-in-your-deck-pc-version#latest

dear players, i suggest its better to play the physical card game, these bugs will most likely exist after 5 years from now or forever, the company is not willing/unable to fix these bugs.
