Is zebstrika supposed to have the weakness +20 applied when attacking?

Zebstrika's move is 30 damage to any pokemon, but weakness +20 is applied to the active pokemon and not applied when attacking a benched pokemon. Is this correct?

    Not applying Weakness when dealing damage to a Benched Pokémon would be consistent with how the "mainline" TCG typically handles it, at least.

    It is strange that they don't include reminder text about this, at least, since they always include it on physical TCG cards that can damage Benched Pokémon.

    Could you tell me the exact wording on the card that allows it to damage benched pokemon?
