A Power Seller is someone who sells a lot of stuff, not necessarily someone who actually knows anything about what they're selling. I've seen Power Sellers living off pirated games on Ebay...

Wasn't there one episode that got banned due to religious thing? Yeah! It was that one with the Santa Claus!

Huh? I do remember a Christmas episode with Santa... I thought it was so weird that there was a Christmas episode of Pokemon. Heh.

Actually, I do recall one Christmas episode, it had to do with a Santa-Jinx...

A RealPlayer clip of the "seizure episode" can be viewed through the link below. It has been scaled down and is not harmful in any way.

Of course they wouldn't put the full, strobe-filled clip online.

Why is it they can not show guns, yet they can show bazookas? Remember the episode where Ash got Squirtle?That had missile launchers. AND BOMBS!

That is another one of the 4 banned Pokemon episodes, and I don't think it was because of any religious thing. From what I understand it had something to do with the fact Brock was being all lovey-dovey with a Jynx because in a state of fever-induced delerium he thought said Jynx was Nurse Joy, and the American censors had a big problem with any idea of Human/Pokemon intercourse. (yeah, I know its silly)

^ Well, that's what I've heard anyway. Though it does seem bizarre they would actually broadcast it in America and then pull it, unless, of course, they had received a multitude of complaints from parentsm censors, or sponsors.

I do belive I saw that episode.... In Canada! On YTV! Many years ago however...... EDIT: I think it shows a flash back about Jessie, when she was little, during Christmas eve when Santa,( Acually a Jinx,) Takes her favorite toy cause it was broken. So then Jessie wants revenge..... and so Team Rocket ties up Santa and almost steals all the toys, until Ash and co. come and the Jinx that took the toy shows Jessie the toy, which the Jinx fixed, and gives it back. But Team Rocket still wants all the toys ( Weirdos ) But they get defeated and Christmas is Saved... In this episode, Santa has Ponyta ( Or Rapidash, I forgot ) instead of Raindeer. Why it was Banned, I dont know. Maybe the fact that its saying: Santa is real, and he's got Pokemon. The Trance episode? Isint that the one with Hypno and Drosee?
