Rulings

  • If a player uses PokéStop and discards Poké Vital A from the top of their deck, Poké Vital A's card text makes it so that it cannot be recovered into the player's hand, even though it is an Item card that was discarded by PokéStop.[1]
  • For interactions between PokéStop and Toedscruel's "Slime Mold Colony" Ability: Slime Mold Colony depends on who owns the Stadium in play, as the Ability only works on the opposing player's Trainer cards. For instance, a player whose own PokéStop is in play can discard the top 3 cards of their deck, but they cannot retrieve any Item cards discarded in this way if their opponent's Slime Mold Colony is active.[1][2] However, if it is the opponent's PokéStop that is in play, the player can retrieve the discarded Item cards as usual regardless of the opponent's Slime Mold Colony.[2]

Trivia
