We investigate the resonant baryonic B decay B−→Pcs0pˉ,Pcs0→J/ψΛ, where Pcs0≡Pcs(4338)0 is identified as a hidden charm pentaquark candidate with strangeness. By interpreting Pcs0 as the ΞcDˉ molecule that strongly decays into J/ψΛ and ηcΛ, we discover a dominant triangle rescattering effect for B−→Pcs0pˉ, initiated by B−→J/ψK−. Through the exchange of a Λˉ anti-baryon, J/ψ and K− undergo rescattering, transforming into Pcs0 and pˉ, respectively. Based on this rescattering mechanism, we calculate B(B−→Pcs0pˉ,Pcs0→J/ψΛ)=(1.4−1.1+2.1)×10−6, which is consistent with the measured data.
