You think we'll ever get to see the banned BW episodes?

not that we actually want to.

I wouldn't be surprised if the original episodes were destroyed.

That would be such a waste. So much effort writting and voicing and animating them (they were, after all, plot relevant episodes) all for nothing, it really annoys me.
>>32819877
It was so unfortunate. I wonder if that episode would have set a different trend for BW
Why were they banned?
>>32822785
too much violence. Apparently their was a gang war episode between Plasma and Rocket where they actually used rockets and laser bazookas instead of just pokemon. They actually blew up city blocks which is too dangerous for Western television.

Around the time the two-parter was about to air, an earthquake and a tsunami hit Japan and has killed thousands of people. In respect to those who got killed and injured, they pulled these episodes from air and had to quickly replace it with the episode about Ash's Gym Battle with Burgh, because the two-parter included scenes such as a Liepard using Hyper Beam on a building.

It was in the wake of the tsunami and could have been seen in bad taste, what are you talking about?
>>32823105
What a shitty reason.
Wasn't this the turning point to where bw dropped all it's plot and tone and went to shit
>>32823234
Yes. Team Rocket instantly went back to their old costumes and just started trying to steal Pikachu again at exactly the same time.

I mean, a kid who just lost one of their loved ones in the disaster probably doesn't want to watch the show they use for escapism to feature Team Plasma firing hyper beams into skyscrapers.

Which was meant to be explained in the two parter obviously when Plasma handed Rocket their ass.
>>32819877
will we ever get to see the whiscash episode from Advanced Battle?
>>32822876
That sounds badass, I love Plasma
