Legacy Energy doesn't always work

I have found that the Legacy Energy card doesn't always work. It is supposed to make your opponent draw one less prize card when they knock you out, but sometimes the glitch allows them to draw the regular amount anyway. I have a screenshot of the issue, but cannot get it to upload here.

    It is working... if the Pokémon Legacy Energy is attached to is Knocked Out by damage from an attack from your opponent's Pokémon, that player takes 1 fewer Prize card. This effect of your Legacy Energy can't be applied more than once per game.

    This means, if this Pokemon is KO by placing damage counters, or poison, or burn, or effects like Frenzied Gouging (Roaring Moon ex), etc. the 1 fewer prize effect of the Legacy Energy is nullified... in this type of scenario your opponent will take the normal number of prize cards.
