op 10 Most Censored Pokémon Moments #10: Safe Shurikens. “Aiming for the Top Floor!” ... #9: Jessie's Midriff. ... #8: Putting Out Matches. ... #7: Meowth's Out-Of-Body Experience. ... #6: Team Rocket's Unfortunate Salute. ... #5: A Wildly Inappropriate Question. ... #4: Lenora's Outfit. ... #3: Brock's Jelly Donuts. #2: Miltank's Udders "Got Miltank?” After Cyndaquil and Meowth are injured and separated from their trainers, they are brought to a Miltank to heal. The cow-like Pokémon uses a combination of glowy hands and its naturally produced milk to heal others. However, American censors took issue with its udders. In the original Japanese version, Meowth and Cyndaquil are clearly shown drinking the milk directly from Miltank, which was completely cut from the English dub. If you look very, very, closely you can still see the moment where Cyndaquil detaches from an udder, but that’s about as close westerns audiences got. People have been to farms, you know! #1: Inflatable Accessories “Beauty and The Beach” There are plenty of examples of James assuming disguises throughout the anime. But the outfit he wore in this highly controversial episode sent the censors into overdrive. To infiltrate a beauty contest, James puts on a bikini, attaches inflatable breasts to himself and pumps them up to astounding size, where he then proceeds to make fun of Misty for being on the left side. The outrage caused by this led to the episode being banned for years! Even after being heavily edited, it was barely shown on western television and isn’t available on several streaming services. James' controversial accessories will ensure that this episode will live forever in infamy.

That beach episode i remember seeing once, it was indeed odd how james looked like that at all😳

now it is censored for completely different reasons

Just remember, it's actually O.L.M. that made the art changes, because video-chopping wasn't a thing back then. Plus, it's possible that Japan gave some differences between the TV airings and DVD releases, with the localized/foreignized option released in the dub.

I agree, for example like Yugioh anime. Some censored moment can’t be help like the Pokémon anime, sometime they have to do it because the Japanese went too far for a franchise media for younger.

Number 5 had me by surprise 😂

What really irks me, is that 4 of these moments on the list were set around and after the Passimian episode in Sun and Moon and proves that TPCi could have easily Re-painted Ash’s face just like how they painted over the shurikens, the train attendants mouth, and the wine glasses. I get blackface is a serious issue, but that shouldn’t be an excuse to not even attempt at a Re-edit proves that it can be done

One thing that was censored, but the footage was still kept, is from the original Japanese opening tune. In that song, Ash is singing how he searches for Pokémon in rivers, mountains, forests and underneath girls' skirts. At which you hear the said girl screaming. Of course, when the dubbed version got a new song, that part of the lyrics had to go. BUT, that part where Pikachu darts between a girl's legs, and she quickly pulls her skirt down, to protect her dignity, was still there in the animation.

0:57 That's the Charlie Chaplin moustache.

I know the Pokémon episode Beauty and the Beach was banned from physical and streaming releases.

Lost pause: these donuts are great. Jelly filled are my favorite. Nothing beats a jelly filled donut

1:45 I don’t blame Pokémon for censoring this because even I feel disturbed by this!

I can only think of 4 or 5 episodes. The episode when Todd Snap shows up to get a picture of Pikachu. While hiding in the grass, his camera causes a glare that only Ash notices and it shows him thinking it's a scope on a rifle and he imagines all of them getting shot. There was the episode where Ash tries to see if he and Pikachu has what it takes to go through similar training that Officer Jenny and her Growlithe does. The episode starts off with Ash and friends coming across a guy dressed as a burglar to help train the Growlite but they mistake him for a real crook. Ash tries to get Pikachu to stop him but Pikachu wouldn't because he seen the guy had a gun in his hand. Later on, Brock even chastises Ash about it saying he shouldn't have expected Pikachu to go after someone with a gun like that. There was the controversial episode of the giant Tentacruel attacking the sea side city. Aside from all the city destruction causing censoring issues due to the episode airing in the states not long after the 9/11 attacks, there was also a crazy old lady who had a tank and was using guns to try and stop the large Tentacruel. I want to say in the episode of the Khangaskhan Kid, there was a scene where Officer Jenny points a rifle at Ash because they thought they were in the Safari Zone but actually in a Pokémon Preserve and she thought he was a poacher. The only other episode I can really recall was the one involving the really grumpy game warden who had a revolver that he pointed directly at Ash's face at one scene. He even took a shot at Team Rocket later on and I want to say there was even a scene where Team Rocket took him hostage and held him at gun point with his own gun. The episode was banned completely though for some reason, I can recall there being a version that was heavily edited and instead of holding the warden at gun point, Jessie threatened to use a tickling robot on him to get him to tell them what they wanted. But there has been soo much going around with this episode. Some sources say this episode was never released to the states due to all the guns in it but I can remember seeing the episode once or twice when I was a kid, both the original and the edited version because I can recall the reason why the warden was soo protective of the area was because it held a lake with a Dragonair in it that saved his life or something and he wanted to protect it from poachers.
