I just tried to use a Standard Genetic Scanner in battle, and I got an error message saying that the item had been deleted. I checked my Inventory page and it's still there. I'm guessing ghost item or a bug with genetic scanners being used...

@Renavoid,

Let me guess... You used the Genetic Scanner when you first got it and then received it again in the Trade when I did the Trap/Scanner update and this is the first time attempting to use it?

Or have you never ever used it up until this point?

Hmm.. that sounds quite plausible, aye. It's hard to remember exactly because I almost never try to use the scanners. I thought I used it more recently than a week ago.. but, I can't say for sure, so lets go with that! xD

Yea, the epic scanners are 1 time use items, so if you had already used it, it should be gone.

You should be able to use the trashcan icon to remove it from your Inventory.
