Default nslookup weird behavior

I accidentally found that "nslookup" works even if I specify a
non-existent dns server. For example "lookup www.kingoffighters.com
202.30.50.1" will return nothing for the first time but return correct
result for the second. 202.30.50.1 is just a random typed address. Is
this normal?

full log:
nslookup www.kingoffighters.com 202.30.50.1
DNS request timed out.
timeout was 2 seconds.
*** Can't find server name for address 202.30.50.1: Timed out
Server: UnKnown
Address: 202.30.50.1
