An Extra Rule card (Japanese: おすすめルールSuggested Rule) is a classification of card in the Pokémon Trading Card Game. Extra Rule cards alter the way the game is played by providing an additional rule. In most cases, these rules can only be enacted before beginning play, so they cannot be played during the game.
Extra Rule cards were released in the third series of Vending Machine cards exclusively in Japan. They have no rarity, and they were all illustrated by Nobuyuki Habu. They use a card template similar to Trainer cards, replacing "TRAINER" in the top box with "EXTRA RULE".
