Path to the Peak
Don't understand the Trainer card: "Path to the Peak". It says "Pokemon with a Rule Box...". What is a "Rule Box"? I assume the "Ability" being referred to is the Ability text/clause on the card. Correct? Thank you for any help.

Hey @Kodiak959!
Rule Box refers to the section on Pokemon EX, GX, V etc that says the opponent takes more than one prize card from knocking them out. It also refers to the section on Radiant Pokemon that says you can only play a single Radiant mon in a deck.

A more clear way of looking at it, and what it really means, is any box on a card with the word "rule" in the title of the box.
Here's a complete list of types of cards with a rule box through Scarlet and Violet:
Pokemon-EX
Pokemon BREAK
Pokemon-GX
Prism Star (including the Trainer cards)
Pokemon V
Radiant Pokemon
Pokemon ex
Note that nothing before Black and White has a rule box, but that obviously never comes up.
