Retraining Classes to better Prestige Class

[ItsJustAce]

This is for PFS
So say you're a sorcerer going into dragon disciple. Requirements for dragon disciple are minimal. 5 skill ranks in knowledge arcane and the ability to cast non-prepped first level spells.

If you are building a character say:
5 sorcerer, 1 dragon disciple

Could you pay to retrain your sorcerer levels into dragon disciple since you know have enough skill ranks? As long as you keep 1 level in sorcerer?
1 sorcerer, 5 dragon disciple

Are there notes on this? is it posted somewhere? Because, how it's read it seems possible.

You can't Retrain Base Class levels into Prestige Class levels.

Is that posted somewhere? I thought so but I can't find a ruling.

[Nefreet]

You posted while I was linking my comment.

Thank you. Sorry I was so impatient.

During the discussion of Retraining with the Developers they clarified that they thought it was so common sense that you couldn't use a Prestige Class to qualify for itself that they chose to save the word count and not add in that disclaimer.

Then the Forums made them facepalm and the FAQ was updated.

That's what makes the most sense to me. But I understand the confusion when the only real requirement is skill checks.

One of the oft-used examples was a character with two different Prestige Classes and no Base Class levels.
