The reason the third chapter was published as [[Electric Tale of Pikachu issue 2|issue 2]] and [[ET02|chapter two]] published as issue 3 is widely speculated to be due to the VIZ Media receiving negative feedback on the largely unedited amounts of cleavage from Misty and [[Daisy Oak|May Oak]] in [[Electric Tale of Pikachu issue 1|issue #1]], so extensive editing was done on chapter two to cover up {{an|Misty}} and her sisters's revealing swimsuits, requiring chapter three to be released first to keep the releases on schedule. This reordering creates a continuity error, as {{Ash}} uses {{AP|Butterfree}} in chapter 3/issue #2, which he actually captures as a Caterpie in this chapter and it evolves into Butterfree during his battle with Misty.
