Metronome using Swinging Sphene

Chessermon

Hi, During a game earlier, I used my Clefable's Metronome ability and chose Swinging Sphene from my opponent's Alolan Exeggutor ex. The coin flip was a heads. But for some reason this didn't knock my opponent's pokémon out. Considering it was in the active spot, I don't fully understand whether this is a bug or a strange ruling.

I will enclose the battle log in case anyone wants clarification.

Any help is gratefully appreciated!

Read cards. It can only knock out Basic Pokémon.

Also, the log clearly says it landed on Tails

Chessermon

It was turn 3, I flipped a heads. Realised afterwards that I misread that card, lol. Thanks for the response anyway.
