This is not just an issue with Bursting Balloon, but with all cards that have the keyword ā€œattacking pokemonā€ in their card text. So for example if cards like Eldegoss V, Forretress (Lost Thunder) and Greedent (Darkness Ablaze) attack cards like Slaking (UNM) or Galarian Stunfisk V, they would be able to dodge "Counterattack or ā€œTrapping Biteā€. But currently they can be knocked by these kind of effects and then return to the hand, go to the Lost Zone after the knockout has happened

This is already known if i am not wrong? @starg09

Yeah, timing on these is a known issue and should be looked at eventually. Thanks for reporting it!
