Pokemon Deleted Episode! "Electric Soldier Porygon!"

[Tanooki]

With regards to this episode, I'm pretty amazed at the lack of coverage any of the members of the Porygon family have gotten in all future episodes. Porygon has only been seen in the background a couple of times, and both Porygon 2 and Porygon-Z have not been seen at all, and it sounds like they never will be. I think it's a little ridiculous that their going to keep them in the dark like that, because it's not like Porygon itself caused the seizures - the shows animators did. =P

Pokemon Anime people are SO stupid, they should just cut that flashing scene instead of the full episode. If those Naruto people and others can cut the violent scenes for the english version, why can't they, They can even give it to me to cut that scene.

Lame!

It really isn't the same as Naruto though. See, with Naruto they cut out the blood and stuff so that the Americans can't see it. It didn't cause any problems in Japan, and the show didn't end up getting cancelled and risked the lives of hundreds of children either. So I don't really see your point of this comparison here...^^" I mean, I guess I could understand a little if they cut out the bright flashing (oh, and they would have to tone down the whole episode at that too. Because really throughout the whole epsiode it was bright o.O) and then air it, but even then I doubt the parents would've let them watch it again (probably one of the reasons why it was cancelled in the first place), plus it would just bring back bad memories from the incident. x__x;;

Maybe that is what I am thinking of...

Ledgend of Dratini is the one where the safari warden threatens to shoot Satoshi right?

Yeah, but it's kinda funny because in the Squirtle Squad episode, someone points a gun at Ash and says "Don't shoot!". Why did they let that one go but not this one?

I don't think the Dratini episode got banned because of the presence of guns, but rather the attitude of the warden himself.

Basically he goes like this: the warden sees something he dislikes, for example Ash singing or Team Rocket standing on top of his entrance gate. He grabs his guns and threatens/starts shooting to "solve" his problem.

The whole "I don't like you singing, so I'll grab my guns to shut you up"-attitude is what I presume to be the reason.
