I can't assign my deck's format.

Ps. Why did you mess up this site so bad. I don't like it one bit.

We had 0 correct deckbuilding rules for GLC and there was no enforcement on following the actual GLC rules which invoked a ton of invalid decks.

I'm rebuilding into a new deckbuilding mode on our new deckbuilder like we have done for "Pokémon Pocket". I'm hoping to have this done by the end of the day if it goes well.

Also this: Ps. Why did you mess up this site so bad. I don't like it one bit.

This is absolutely useless to me. I always 100% open to constructive feedback and I'm actually extremely responsive to it but that's just no good whatsoever to me. In future, please provide proper feedback.

I've cleaned up some of the reamining rules and pushed it out live now but I've only been able to do some light testing on it. Let me know if the rules need tweaking.

On the deckbuilder, click the "GLC" button to swap to Gym Leader Challenge deck building.

"Changing game mode will clear your current deck. Are you sure you want to continue?"

So I have to do it again on every unlisted deck... great.

I worked on an update last night that I've pushed out this morning.

So basically, if you are editing what would have been an unlimited deck and change it to GLC, it won't delete the deck but it will do a GLC rules check on it and notify you on a modal if anything is compatible and ask you to remove the cards before switching to GLC. 

This should allow you to not wipe any decks that are swapping to GLC that are already GLC compatible.

Won't let me change because "Guzma & Hala is a Rule Box card (not allowed in GLC)" which is not true.

Ok I pushed another update now to allow cards that should be legal. Guzma & Hala should be allowed now.

Ok pushed another update that:

  1. Adds a "GLC" format filter to the deckbuilder.
  2. Auto swaps to this when using GLC format (we were using Expanded filter for GLC which was invalid it seems).
  3. Delinquent now appears as part of GLC.
  4. We filter cards from Black & White on (April 25th 2011 onwards)

I don't really play GLC so I tried to look up a definitive list of cards in the format which was....suprisingly hard and sparse. The GLC website simply states:

"Cards printed from Black & White–on"

So I asked in their discord if anyone knows is it simply April 25th 2011 on or some other sort of ruling. 

Someone told me: it's not every printed card on and after that date but only every standard legal printing during that time frame. 

I don't know how I can exactly filter for that and it's still a little vauge but for now my options are:

  1. Simply leave as April 25th 2011 and onwards 
  2. Basically set it to Unlimited and let the community decide (but we end up with the original problem again of a bunch of invalid decks)

It's been a tricky one.

After discussing it some more on GLC discord servers, it seems manual tracking of eligible cards is necessary for GLC and is normally known to be really tedious.

As such, for now I've just set the card pool for GLC to be all cards excluding pocket cards and I'll try my hand at it again after the holidays.
