There is a brand of lighter called Zippo?

Yes. There is. I'm going to try to find the logo:

This is the Zippo logo, along with some of the lighters. Now how they let Richie's Charmander be called Zippo is beyond me.

Well it doesn't show them using a zippo lighter so it's ok.

I saw the porygon episode on Youtube. It gave me a headache, and was in Japanese, so I had no clue about what was happening, and actually was like "What the fuck's going on in this?" Then, I passed out, according to my mother.

I saw tentacool and tentacreul, they even have a part of it in the original series theme! I don't know why it was ever banned.

What? That Episode, was never banned. I've seen that episode what like 50 times, long before Johto came out? They don't show the old episodes, here in the UK anymore, but that episode was never banned, in the UK.

Kids wouldn't notice. Or perhaps the editors didn't notice.

I heard that 4Kids edited the banned Porygon episode to make it safe, but it still hasn't been shown. It was all Pikachu's fault for the seizures…not Porygon…what a scapegoat…or a figurehead…XD

Y'know what? I give in. I try and explain that UK is different then the US, when why do people think I live in the US, when I'm British? Seriously, not everyone comes from the US… There's a lot of us British, lot out there, ya just have to find us. XD Besides, I've seen that Tower episode, whre Ash, wants to get a Haunter, to beat Sabrina, many times.

I think Fivex is talking about the one that a Giant Tentacruel destroyed buildings.  It was canceled in the US. I don't think it was canceled in the UK. It was canceled because it was highly similar to 9-11.

Not canceled, just postponed because of 9-11.

For the last time.
No body is saying that it was banned world wide.
