Capacious Bucket Glitch

So the capacious bucket is supposed to retrieve 2 water energies and it doesn't specify that they have to be basic. Whenever I used it, I could only retrieve the basic water energies and not wash energies. Is this actually how it is supposed to work or is the capacious bucket just not right in the game.

    Not a bug: Wash Energy doesn't provide any Energy when not in play.

    Special Energy cards don't have a type until they are attached.

    That is actually how it's supposed to work. The text on Wash Energy says "As long as this card is attached to a Pokémon, it provides Water Energy"... which means it's not a water energy until it's attached, and so can't be searched out with Capacious Bucket. Tons of bugs in this game, but that's not one of them!
