This manga is perhaps the most controversial Pokémon manga ever published, due almost entirely to the fact that the original Japanese version of the manga series had a lot of sexual content, including women such as Misty (to a lesser extent), Jessie and Misty's older sisters given oversized busts with very little clothing and a nude scene with a completely naked Misty with the main male characters (also unclothed) in a hot spring. In order to make the series marketable to younger English-speaking readers, much of this was censored during translations and all of the sexual content was taken out, leading to a "cleaner" version of the manga for international readers. | {|class="expandable" | ||

One scene in particular that was heavily edited was the chapter where {{Ash}} battles [[Misty]] for the Cascade Badge. She strips down to a ''very'' revealing bathing suit (one could say that she was barely clothed at all), but in the edited English version, she strips down to a black wetsuit. | One scene in particular that was heavily edited was the chapter where {{Ash}} battles [[Misty]] for the Cascade Badge.
