#lostmedia #banned #bannedcartoons #pokemon #bannedpokemon

If you're like me, Pokemon was a huge part of your childhood. I remember racing home everyday to catch each episode, but I always noticed a couple Pokemon never appeared in the anime. It turns out, that's because they were featured in banned episodes that never aired! Today, we're going to be discussing the banned episode that featured Porygon called "Electric Soldier Porygon". What was so controversial about the episode? Let's find out!

Welcome to Retro Grade! This channel is dedicated to looking back on games and media of the past and seeing how they hold up in the present! I upload in depth videos, as well as shorts weekly!

Fun fact: Pikachu actually did the flashing lights thing then they blamed Porygon for some reason lol

[TrendgePK]

Such a shame because I really liked Porygon. I was always curious why I never saw him in the anime when I was a kid.

[DanTheGucciMan]

Fun fact: the main cause for the incident (was a big flashing ball of electricity) was pikachus fault but the Pokémon company didn’t want to lose their mascot so they tagged the blame to porygon to not lose they’re main mascot

[poisonpotato]

This helped people discover undiagnosed epilepsy

[anthonyoliver]

I hate whoever decided Porygon can’t appear ever again in the anime, if anything they should’ve avoided doing visuals like that instead of banning one of my favorite #justiceforporygon

Porygon used zap canon on the 685 viewers 💀

Pikachu used: Epilepsy! It's Super Effective!

the worst part is all they could do is change to 1 to 1 frame of light to 1 to 10 frames of light, like they did to Pikachu's thundershock when he first met with Ash, kind of like the animation had 2 fps or something.

Free my boy Porygon, he did nothin wrong

[xblade]

Fun fact. This episode was actually dub they took out the seizure effect but 4kids decided not to air it anyway

[Hose_]

We must never ignore porygon’s services

[ResurrectedElvenMonk]

Pikachu: "What have you done Porygon?" *Innocently stops firing electricity, which was the cause if the flashing from the explosion*

Porygon: *Confused computer noises*

[toainsully]

Had the flashing lights been an explosion instead, it would've made it onto TVs

[spider_sheep]

I feel bad for Porygon an action that Pikachu did caused Porygon and his whole Evolution line got banned

[snowsugardashietheaircatgi]

To quote Jax from TADC: “Team Rocket, I blame you for this.”

[oouscary]

Got this episode on repeat until I die

[brightknot]

Tbh the porygon scene isnt even that bad, but ig its probably bc i dont have epilepsy.

[jakeoutdoors]

If flashing lights on television send you to the hospital, you should be glad that the weak are cared for in society and not left to their own devices. Because you wouldn't survive.

[Enochulate]

I always looked at the Porygon card like wtf is this ish.

[AIguy]

I saw this episode and the story was good and how they introduced Porygon was just so fantastic
