Alternate Formats Ban List Update: 345, Eternal Formats

All of the following ban list updates are effective immediately.

Two cards have been added to the ban list for the 345 format: Slowbro PGO 20 and Ambipom PGO 57.

Additionally, two cards have been added to the ban list for the Eternal format and one card has been removed from the format’s ban list.

The following cards are now banned in the Eternal format:

Note that because the Black Star Promo 20 version of Psyduck is a reprint of the Psyduck from Fossil, it is also banned by that card’s ban.

The following card is no longer banned in the Eternal format:

Note that this card, like other cards with newer prints, must be played with the newest text printed on any card of the same name. In this case, Pokémon Center’s newest print comes from Black & White—Next Destinies and the Base Set version of the card (and all prints prior to that Next Destinies print) must be played with the newest text.

Alternate Formats Ban List Update: Eternal Format

The 17 cards below have been added to the ban list for the Eternal Format, effective immediately. Please review the full ban list for the Eternal format and keep these bans in mind when constructing your deck for August 5th’s Eternal format tournament.

This ban list update brings the total number of banned cards in the Eternal format to 117. Please be aware that these bans may have a ripple effect on the format and may cause some shifts that will warrant additional bans—or unbans—in the future. Eternal is a new format with an absolutely enormous card pool, and its ban list will need a little while longer to get out of its teething phase.

Emergency Ban List Update: Eternal Format

The following cards have been added to the Eternal format’s ban list, effective immediately. Please be aware that these cards will not be legal for the Eternal format tournament on 8 July 2022.

Ban reasoning: Because of the large variety of Metal-type energy acceleration in the format, it is too easy for players to abuse Palkia & Dialga LEGEND’s Time Control attack, which reads, “Discard all [M] Energy attached to Palkia & Dialga LEGEND. Add the top 2 cards of your opponent's deck to his or her Prize cards.”
