===Pokémon Checkup===
'''Pokémon Checkup''' is the name given to the step of the game that occurs between each player's [[#Turn|turn]]. While the concept existed since the very start of the game, the term was only given a name with the release of {{TCG|Sword & Shield}}. (Prior to this, it was informally known as the '''"between-turns step"'''.) During Pokemon Checkup, the {{TCG|Special Conditions}} [[Poisoned]], [[Burned]], [[Asleep]], and [[Paralyzed]] perform their respective effects. Other effects that occur between turns are processed either before or after the Special Conditions. (Those effects get processed as a group, such that no effect is performed while Special Conditions are put into effect.) After between turns effects have been performed, the game compares each Pokémon's [[#Damage|damage counters]] to their [[#HP|HP]] to determine if [[#Knock Out|Knock Out]]s occur. Then the next player's turn starts.
The game does not enter Pokémon Checkup if an effect gives one player an additional turn. After the original turn ends, the additional turn immediately begins.
