-: This two-part saga of [[Team Rocket]] facing off with [[Team Plasma]] was postponed due to the {{wp|2011 Sendai earthquake and tsunami|earthquake and tsunami}} that devastated Japan almost a week before the first half was supposed to air. Unlike any of the former, they are expected to air at a later date because of their significance to the series and TV Tokyo's word on the matter. As the episodes have yet to air in Japan, dubs of the episode have yet to be shown around the world. While the episodes were simply skipped in Japan, the English dub edited ''[[BW022|A Venipede Stampede!]]'' to remove the cliffhanger ending that set up the story, and all regions aired ''[[BW023|Battling for the Love of Bug-Types!]]'' followed by ''[[BW024|Emolga the Irresistible!]]'' instead. As of [[BW112]], it appears these episodes are no longer part of the anime canon and have been removed from the timeline.

As of [[BW112]], it appears these episodes have been retconned out of continuity, and it is highly unlikely that they will ever air.
