Using ability on turn one works with AI not with live player

I noticed that my Radiant Blastoise was able to use Pump Shot ability on turn one if I played against an AI player but during a game with a live player it would not activate on turn one.

Anyone else had this experience with abilities on turn one.

PS I am referring to a situation where I went first.

    Looks like maybe it was hickup in my internet connection. I will try to duplicate and let everyone know.

    Just played a match where I had my radiant Blastoise, went first and had an energy to spare. I was able to use my Pump Shot ability.

    Guess it was just a weird hickup in my internet connection.

    That's very likely. Lots of people forget that Radiant Pokemon have rule boxes.

    Thanks for the input, but as I mentioned I went first. There were no stadium cards in play yet.

    @Street_XP did the opponent had a pokemon on the bench?
