Unable to use Raihan

Playing Urshifu VMAX/Inteleon VMAX vs. Lost Box

My opponent knocked my Inteleon VMAX using Raikou V's Lightning Rondo. Because I lost a Pokémon to Knock Out, I should have been able to use the Raihan in my hand the next turn. I had basic Water energy in the discard pile, but despite that, the game would not allow me to use Raihan. I had not played a Supporter yet that turn; in fact, the Judge next to the Raihan in the hand was lit up.

(I apologise, I thought I had saved the screenshot I took, but I did not.)

    ... Oh no. Please don't tell me this is after you removed it from the discard somehow. Oh dear... Not again...

    That actually append to me too, my Pokémon was knock out by attack damage, then not sure the exact steps combination but all spporter cards were playable except Raihan (the basic energy was in discard pile too). I guess our buddy Raihan is not working properly once again.

    Happened to me against a lost box deck. Had two benched mons that were KOd by radiant greninja. Next turn I was not able to play Raihan.
