Has anybody else had the Elekid Bug??

Just wondering, has anyone else had the bug that i keep getting with Elekid?

Where when u use its Crackling Shot attack, on a benched pokemon it has the protect animation when they have nothing that would protect the bench

It's lost me like five games sofar, and at the minit its making the resauses i used to craft my Tsareena ex deck wasted, as i can't test the deck if i cant use a integral part of it.
