Can’t power up certain Pokémon

If I click the power up button nothing happens especially on some lucky Pokémon! Anyone else with the same problem?

Are they on one of your premade teams?

It's a bug. Pokemon assigned to a team cannot currently be powered up. You need to remove them from your team first. Niantic is looking into it.

This bug seems to have been solved. Powered up my Flygon while on a team today.

Remove Pokemon from Team.
Set Team with other Pokemon.

-> Power up possible.

I had this same issue with a Pokemon assigned as my buddy. Could not power up, even after walking a different Pokemon, rebooting game, etc. Still can't power it up.
