Revenge Match at Hanada Gym!

Air Date: December 10, 2002

A three-second shot of Misty (Kasumi) and Joy going down the stairs is removed.

A 15-second sequence of Misty imagining the PIA guys closing her gym   more... down is entirely cut.

The last four seconds of the shot of those three guys from "Gotta Catch Ya Later" pressed against a window is removed and replaced with a shot of Gyarados from earlier in the episode.

Three seconds are trimmed from the establishing shot of Misty on a diving board.

In the dub, we see a shot of Joy (with Togepi in her arms) running up to the pool as the water whirls around. After that, we see a shot of Misty, underwater, still trapped by the currents. In the Japanese version, these two scenes are reversed.

Then, a second is shot from the close-up shot of Kasumi in her mermaid outfit.

Another bunch of snippets occur during Misty's ballet show.

A nine second sequence of Misty doing some additional dancing is removed.

Eight more seconds of Misty standing in the water followed by Gyarados looking at her are removed.

Six seconds of Misty trapped in the whirlpool are removed. The first three seconds of this footage was just recycled from a couple of shots before that, but the final three seconds was a new shot of Misty begging Gyarados to stop.

A three second fade-in / fade-out during the above transition edit were removed.

Later, the scene with Kasumi and Gyarados in the pool has tons of little snippets made to it. First of all, a second is trimmed from the pan shot of the pool during Misty's "All right now, listen up!"

After Misty fails to catch Gyarados with a PokéBall, the shot of the pulley is shortened by one second.

A second is trimmed from the very next shot, the one showing the cage going into the water ("I didn't want to do this, but I see no other choice").
The shot of the cage lowering on Gyarados as it struggles to get free is shortened by a second.

A second is then cut from the shot of Gyarados slamming its body into the cage.

The shot of Gyarados' Hydro Pump shooting out of the pool and almost hitting Misty was a second longer in the Japanese version.
Finally, two seconds are trimmed from the very next shot showing Gyarados ramming against the cage again.

Another shot of the Cerulean (Hanada) Gym is shortened by 1 second.
The shot of the pool rising up as the brother challenges Misty is shortened by a second.

A close-up of the three brothers before the shot of the stadium lights turning on is altered in the dub. What 4Kids does is shorten it by four seconds and then replace three of those seconds with a shot of Misty from earlier in the episode ("Alright big shot! I'm ready! Let's battle!") Then, the final second is cut from the dub.

In the Japanese version, we just see the shot of the three brothers for four seconds before going straight to the shot of the stadium lights turning on.

A four-second "black out" screen is removed from the part during Kasumi's fainting after getting the crap beat out of her by the brothers' Dokukurage. As a result, Satoshi's and Takeshi's dialogue (which was basically just them repeating what they said earlier in the episode) is removed.

Later, the shot of Joy and Misty on the diving board after Misty puts Gyarados back in its Poke Ball is shortened by a whopping six seconds.
A second is trimmed from the zoom-out shot of the Hanada Gym.
Then, the last ten seconds of the episode are cut. After Kasumi jumps into the water, we see her swim around a bit before the scene freezes, zooms out to reveal all the gym's pokemon, and ends with the words TO BE CONTINUED at the bottom of the screen.  less

USA: July 8, 2006

Scene cuts from the dub:

• Seventeen seconds was cut from the   more...scene with Tracey (Kenji) with the Magikarp (Koiking) Salesman.
• All of the transitions between scenes were removed from the dub, totaling 8 seconds in cuts.
• The running gag of Professor Oak trying to find a word that rhymes with Tauros in order to create a love poem for Delia exists only in the English dub, it is nowhere to be found in the original Japanese version.
• The dub has Butch refer to Jessie and James as "Messy and Lames", which were names used in the Mad Magazine parody of the anime in the late 1990s.
• The narrator's line at the end of the episode is different in the Japanese version, where he just says that all the Poké Balls have been returned, and the daily peace the Pokémon enjoyed before Butch and Cassidy's attack has returned to Pallet Town.
• For some reason, the Magikarp Salesman in this episode was voiced differently than how he usually sounds in the main series. This is the only 4Kids dubbed episode where this has happened to the character in question.
• The scene where Cassidy wearing a Nidoqueen suit fighting a real Nidoking was cut short for being too violent for the dub.  less
