Bug? Toxic Powder / Tantrum Blast / Ancient Booster Energy Capsule

Wondering if this was a bug I encountered while playing today. Playing Roaring Moon against Klawf/Hisuian Electrode V. My Roaring Moon had Ancient Booster Energy Capsule attached. Opponent used Toxic Powder, which was negated by ancient capsule, but was still hit by the opponent’s Electrode’s Tantrum Blast. Maybe I’m misunderstanding Tantrum Blast? Electrode did have super effective glasses on… Does that somehow still cause the damage to go through? Nothing on the card seems to suggest it would. Here are the logs for the relevant turn. No mention of Roaring Moon being poisoned and you can see Ancient Booster Energy Capsule was attached when it was knocked out.

Turn # 4 - arollingterd's Turn

arollingterd drew a card.

arollingterd's Brute Bonnet used Toxic Powder.

- arollingterd's Hisuian Electrode V is now Poisoned.

arollingterd's Hisuian Electrode V used Tantrum Blast on Carlidus’s Roaring Moon ex for 300 damage. Carlidus's Roaring Moon ex took 200 more damage because of Grass Weakness.

Carlidus's Roaring Moon ex was Knocked Out!

- 4 cards were discarded from Carlidus's Roaring Moon ex.

   • Basic Darkness Energy, Basic Darkness Energy, Basic Darkness Energy, Ancient Booster Energy Capsule

arollingterd took 2 Prize cards.

A card was added to arollingterd's hand.

    Ancient booster energy capsule doesn't prevent damage, if that's what you're asking?? this looks like a normal play to me.

    If it's about the special condition, tantrum blast's damage is based on special conditions on electrode. whether roaring moon was poisoned doesn't matter.

    Ah ok, that’s what I was misunderstanding. I thought the special condition had to be on Roaring Moon. Thanks!
