Magcargo Lava Zone ability bug

The ability states
"Whenever your opponent's Active pokemon moves to the Bench during their turn, their new Active pokemon is now Burned."

Player A owns Magcargo, player B does not

When player B plays Boss's Orders to change the active pokemon of player A, Lava Zone will trigger, burning player A's active pokemon, despite the active pokemon of player A remaining the same throughout the entire turn

    Correction: Player B's active pokemon gets burned despite having remained active for the entire turn, player A was a typo.

    To recap:

    Player A owns Magcargo, player B does not

    When player B plays Boss's Orders to change the active pokemon of player A, Lava Zone will trigger, burning player B's active pokemon, despite the active pokemon of player B remaining the same throughout the entire turn
