:In ''[[AG013|All things Bright and Beautifly]]'', they made an edit in the Rocket Fantasy because the grunts and the trio were doing a similar pose to the "Heil Hitler" pose. it was definitely a Nazi salute, especially considering their affiliation with Team Rocket, a paramilitary organization.

::That was in ONE episode, not all of them. They realized it looked too much like the Heil Hitler, so they changed it. They'll do things like that, such as the Registeel pose in D/P. They had to change that for the European version because of the similarity. None of it is intentional. [[User:Rocket Admin Hunter Blade|R.A.

:::Registeel may have been unintentional, but I doubt it was a coincidence that it even resembled one of the most evil paramilitary totalitarian organizations of history. I mean, Team Rocket in the Anime has control of at least four areas (As the Sevii Islands appeared in the anime as well, I'd say they have a base located in Sevii Islands as well, as it did have one in the games.), and was implied to have taken over Hoenn at the end of the Hoenn arc, making five thus far, the fact that, out of all the criminal organizations that have debuted as of yet, they are currently the only ones who have had access to military grade vehicles (''[[EP064|It's Mr. Mime Time]]'' had JJM using a Tank, as well as a Submarine capable of firing weapons that could destroy a city in some episodes, as well as the fact that they owned Jeeps [a standard Military transport vehicle] in the Red Gyarados Arc are all testaments to this. Heck, just like the Nazis and Hitler, Giovanni was considered to be a respected high official in there, being quite unaware that he is actually a dictator.). I mean, it's not the first time the Japanese referenced the Nazis when making their shows. I mean, the Red Ribbon army in Dragon Ball was deliberately based off of the Nazi party (even going as far as to include a Germanic, Gay, Superstrong psychic using high general by the name of General Blue into the mix.). Believe me, it was deliberately based off of the Nazi salute. there's been too much evidence for it to be that for it to not be a nazi reference. I am removing it because you said it shouldn't be mentioned as it would cause too much controversy, so the image would have to go as well.
