Opponent uses Big beat to knock out my active Pokémon → opponent turn ends→ I attack with rampardos and do 130 damage to Buzzwole EX → my turn ends → opponent retreats Buzzwole EX → opponent attaches energy and uses Lusamine to attach energy to Buzzwole EX → opponent switches Buzzwole EX back in with Celesteela → Buzzwole EX uses BIGBEAT and knocks out Rampardos → game lost


make it make sense??? The text clearly says big beat can’t be used during YOUR next turn. So how is he hitting two times in two turns?

    The same happens with Togekiss and Crabominable ex. I think it's intended… that doesn't mean I think it's kind of broken tho. It would be better if there is a statement in the text like "while is on the Active spot" or something like that.

    It left the active, the effect of Buzzwole ex's Big Beat no longer applies as it left the active, it has always worked this way since the dawn of the game

    I think I agree it should not be used back to back irrespective of switching or not.
    Normally I dont think other cards have this technical issue.

    Realistically speaking a Pokemon would have lost its energy to hit back to back like that. This needs a fix please.

    The number of versus I lost against buzzwole ex because of that bug it doesn't make sense and people use that bug at their advantage. A turn should be a turn, and not a pokemon switching from deck to active. I was gonna report the same bug because it drives me crazy anytime I'm against that deck

    I believe this is a bug. The rulebook clearly states Special Conditions are "Asleep, Burned, Confused, Paralyzed, or Poisoned" and "when a Pokémon goes to the Bench, it recovers from all Special Conditions. Pokémon also recover when they evolve".

    Hence, this effect should prevent the Pokemon from using that attack in any way as this is not a Special Conditions as per the rulebook.
