I find it hard to believe, but an administrator told a lie! The new episode next weekend at 8am is actually The Psychic Sidekick, A Johto Journeys episode. The week after that will have the first two season 4 episodes.

See The Kids WB Schedule (http://www.toonzone.net/shows/schedules/) for proof.

I've long contended that lawsuit concerns will prevent any network from ever airing the 'seizure' Pokemon episode, even with the problem-causing light effects trimmed. There's nothing to stop unscrupulous parents from instructing their children to fake a seizure, hoping to rake in some cash on sheer undeserved sympathy (there have been precidents!)

Sveven and Sharklady's right. It is not the seizure episode and the seizure episode will never be aired. PERIOD.

[SSJ3Gokan]

but they showed the seizure episode awhile ago (and it was edited), there was even a marathon leading up to it. Anyways when when was the last new episode shown?

I've seen the scene that caused all the trouble broadcasted on the Internet. It lasts under 30 seconds and can be filtered and scaled down...so I don't see the trouble. As for kids faking seizures, a competent court psychiatrist can debunk something like that with a simple MRI, a CAT scan, or catching the kid off-guard with a strobe light, not giving him enough time go go into his little song-and-dance.
So I don't see why it can't be shown on network TV. Maybe a nice pair of dark glasses--shades of MIB, if you'll pardon the pun--would solve the problem. Incidentally, here's a link: http://www.snopes.com/radiotv/tv/seizure.htm
I also don't see why "The Legend of Dratini" can't air just because of a little gunplay. Just slap a TVY7 rating on it or--though I hate censoring and editing--turn the bullets into laser beams. Note Jessy and James have used guns before, but they generally shoot nets, bubble gum, or ice beams--seems it's only bullets the execs fear.

I don't believe they have aired the seizure episode. There would have been significant hype for it. KWB would not have advertised it as "The seizure episode," but they would have said something like, "The episode that was so shocking, so controversial that it was never aired...until NOW!"

[SSJ3Gokan]

thats exactly waht they said there was a marathon of the episodes leading up to that one too

[Sveven Dvorking]

but that episode has never aired! Check any official or unofficial episode guide, and it will say it hasn't aired in English or the US, or the episode will not be on the list at all.
