Believing it would have been insensitive to air an episode about earthquakes mere weeks after the disaster, it was pulled from the air. The episode was never aired anywhere in the world, and the moves {{m|Earthquake}}, {{m|Fissure}}, and {{m|Magnitude}} have never been used in the anime since.

: This two-part saga of [[Team Rocket]] facing off with [[Team Plasma]] was postponed due to the {{wp|2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami|earthquake and tsunami}} that devastated Japan almost a week before the first half was supposed to air. At the time, they were expected to air at a later date because of their significance to the series and TV Tokyo's word on the matter. While the episodes were simply skipped in Japan, The Pokémon Company International edited the dubbed version of ''[[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|Team Plasma's Pokémon Power Plot!]]'', the episodes have been retconned out of continuity, making it unlikely that they will ever air or be shown in a normal manner. | : This two-part saga of [[Team Rocket]] facing off with [[Team Plasma]] was postponed due to the {{wp|2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami|earthquake and tsunami}} that devastated Japan almost a week before the first half was supposed to air.
