    Do you think they should make an un-cut banned ep DVD?

    (Well, except for Beauty and the Beach)
    I think so. I mean, it's been said by someone at 4 Kids that the episode "Electric (Computer) Solider Porygon" has been dubbed and the intensity of the lights has been reduced. Though still, it was skipped over in all re-runs of the first series, and it's not on the DVD (I have it).
     
    Well, you could always just put the banned episodes on DVD yourself...haha.Iit would be nice if they did, but after all this time, I don't think they would.

    Is there a version of Electric Solider Porygon with no seizure scene?
     
    Well, there's only one version but the quality is so low that apparently it can't give you seizures. I know this is true if you watch it on computer because the refresh rate won't be as fast, not sure about TV though

    But what I don't see why someone can't get a good quality and just remove the scene.
     
    I can't remember completly, but apparently the version that you can get online is the only version you can get for some reason.

    They'll probably never actually release the episode the same reason they've never shown Porygon, Porygon2 and perhaps PorygonZ because they think it would be in bad taste after all those people got seizures. Even though it was Pikachu's fault, heh.

    Poor Porygon, that's what I always thought.

    I think Porygon is cute, and it really doesn't need to be treated like this.

    As far as I've seen, after that episode, Porygon, Porygon2, or PorygonZ have never been "Who's That Pokemon?".

    The only banned episode I've seen is Legend of the Dratini.

    I really want to see Electric Solider Porygon, but I don't want a seizure.

    Porygon was on an American Who's That Pokémon? at some point or another. Also, Electric Soldier Porygon is my favorite episode in the series, I saw it subtitled. As long as you're not epileptic, I wouldn't worry, I've seen the seizure scene unedited, full-screen, in high quality various times.

    It feels so strange when you say that, I feel like some time when I was very little (I started liking Pokemon when I was 3, and my cousin liked it) I saw part of the episode..

    Maybe my cousin was watching it..?

    Well, it was actually on the news around the world that it had caused seizures, and they shown the scene before the seizure scene, so that may have been what you saw. I remember seeing it on the BBC News. The subbed one on the internet most probably won't harm you, especially if you watch it on YouTube because it is too low quality and the refresh rate isn't fast enough

    I'll make my cousin or dad watch it first, just to be safe.
    lol
