Professor Juniper and Professor Sycamore
These two supporter cards, Professor Juniper and Professor Sycamore, are given a special rule due to their effects. The newly revealed Professor Sycamore Supporter card has the same effect as Professor Juniper. Because of this, players may run either Professor Juniper or Professor Sycamore in their deck. They may still run up to 4 of the card they choose.
