(Japanese: '''ロケット団ＶＳプラズマ団！（前編）''' ''{{tt|Rocket-dan|Team Rocket}} VS {{tt|Plasma-dan|Team Plasma}}! (Part 1)'') was intended to be the 23rd episode of ''[[Pokémon the Series: Black & White]]'', and the 680th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]<!--It is scheduled to air in Japan on *day* and is scheduled to air in the United States on *day*-->.

This episode was originally scheduled to air in Japan on March 17, 2011, but was postponed, along with the original {{OBP|BW024|unaired}}, indefinitely because of the {{wp|2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami|Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami}} and the {{wp|Fukushima nuclear disaster}}. TV Tokyo said in 2011 that it would someday air, but this statement was never updated or clarified and was ultimately removed late in 2018. As of ''[[BW112|Team Plasma's Pokémon Power Plot!]]'', this episode's events have been removed from continuity.
