As per the title, Acerola's Premonition can't be played when the opponent does not have any cards in their hand. This might seem like a niche issue, but Mimikyu VMAX requires that the card be played in order to use the stronger version of its Ominous Numbers.

    That's not a bug. You can't play a card for no effect.

    More specifically, if public information guarantees that the Trainer card will fail, you may not play it.


    Since the opponent's hand has 0 cards, Acerola is guaranteed to fail and thus you can't play it in that situation.
