Welcome to the world of banned Pokémon episodes.... kinda!

In July of 1997, Japan hadn't even aired 20 episodes of their new anime "Pocket Monsters" yet, and it would be more than a year before the first English language edition of the episode would air in America. Nobody really quite grasped the ENORMOUS appeal that Pokémon was going to have, and so nobody really put much thought into NOT doing what happened in this episode - Holiday at Aopulco. However, when it came time to air in America, there were some major problems, two great big bouncy ones in particular. So for almost two years, Holiday at Aopulco sat on the short banned list of episodes of Pokémon, and was only available to be viewed in its original Japanese format. In the year 2000, an English language adaptation was finally screened that cut two very important, bouncy aspects of the original episode out. Normally at Pokemopolis the episode guides are meant to represent the English language edition of an episode unless ONLY the Japanese edition is available. In this particular case an exception has been made, and the following episode guide (outside of the title picture) is taken mostly from the Japanese edition. English names and some lines of translated dialogue will be included, but we're mostly working with the Japanese edition. Why? Because it's just too goddamn funny and dodgy not to do so! So without further adieu, I give you...



Ahhh, the lovely beach setting of Porta Vista! Rays of golden, cancer-giving sun streaming down on a bevy of beauties in brief bikinis, showing off their figures in an endless cycle of seduction and romance. Kids too, enjoy the beach, making little sandcastles and laughing with the joyful innocence of youth.

Somewhere in-between we find Ash and Brock, charging with youthful abandon down the beach, throwing their clothes into the air before leaping high and cannon-balling into the ocean, feeling the sweet embrace of the sea on their skin, the cold, cold water reminding them both that there is something they have to do. Emerging from the water, the two turn and look at each other with knowing grins as they do what we've all done at one point or another... and peed into the ocean. An unknowing Pikachu swims by through their urine, using a flotation device to keep it from drowning, looking cuter than ever as it, too, enjoys the ocean.
"Hiiii!" laughs a familiar voice, and the two turn to see a very unfamiliar sight. The camera pans up the body of Misty, dressed only in a skimpy bikini, and though she might be a bit young for more developed tastes, she's right between Ash and Brock's age and therefore a tasty treat to consider. The two of them stare at Misty with blank, goofy looks, while Pikachu just looks pleased to see her. Misty isn't sure what's wrong with the boys, especially when they stride out of the pool with their stomachs sucked in and chests thrust out (a particularly hilarious sight when it comes to Ash's scrawny little body.

Ash - being Ash - tells Misty that it is weird to see her dressed like a girl, and she angrily slams him in the face with her beach ball. He is knocked back into the ocean where he is again too stupid to realise he can't breathe water, instead gargling it all out as he tries to figure out just what it is with woman that he doesn't get.

Everything Ash, you don't get it, and you never will.

Also beneath the water is... a Gyarados! But no, it isn't the same one that tried to kill them all only a few episodes ago. It's Team Rocket inside a mechanical version, watching through the periscope like dirty old men.

"To protect the world from devastation."
"To unite all peoples within our nation."
"To denounce the evils of truth and love."
"To extend our reach to the stars above."
"Jesse."
"James."
"Team Rocket blast off at the speed of light."
"Surrender now or prepare to fight, fight, fight!"
"Meowth, dat is right!"

Yes, Team Rocket are plotting some delightful wickedness, as always, but their plans are interrupted by Jesse spotting an oncoming boat speeding towards them, and who should be at the helm but.... ASH!?!

Yes, somehow Ash has managed to be put in charge of a boat (or stolen it!) and taken his friends on a joy-ride! He has even gone so far as to not be wearing a shirt under his jacket, thinking it gives him a cool, European look. He can't compete with Brock's toplessness, however, though Misty is impressed that Ash managed to get his hands on the boat from somebody. Who? Ash doesn't know, it belongs to a friend of Brock's who must be rich! Brock has no idea what he is talking about though, even though he got on first, and claims he was only following Pikachu! Yep, they straight up stole a boat!

None of them see the Gyarados submarine until it is too late, and they smash against each other, both being knocked wildly off course as the submarine is sent down deep into the depths of the ocean and the boat knocked straight towards a nearby wharf. Misty clutches to Ash fearfully, Pikachu slams into Brock, and then the boat rams into the wharf, bringing them to an abrupt halt. Misty and Brock are slammed hard into opposite rails and Ash is knocked onto his back with his legs straight up in the air.

They gather themselves up and get off of the boat, reviewing the damage sombrely before an old man comes charging down the wharf screaming angrily, shaking his walking stick in Ash's face and demanding restitution for his stolen boat and destroyed wharf. A terrified Ash grabs Misty and shoves her in front of him, begging the old man to take her and let him live. The still bikinied Misty is a little shaken by all this, but luckily the old man is a filthy old bastard, and one glance at her young budding breasts calms him right down, his face taking on a goofy Brock-like appearance as he blushes and visibly relaxes. In the English edition they attempt to play off his perversion by having him tell her that she reminds him of his grand-daughter... but that just makes his leering at her tits more horrifying!

Misty talks to him, nervously trying to get out of the trouble they're in, but he only has eyes for her chest. Thinking fast, she slides behind Ash and Brock and shoves them forward, suggesting perhaps that the old man might want to put her two friends to work rather than turning her out on the street to hook.

Back on the beach, Team Rocket are trying to catch their breath, cursing Ash for his mindless, blatant disregard for their well-being. A new figure steps in, surprising them as they look up to find themselves facing the most hideous troll it will ever be your misfortune to discover, a hideous troll that bubbles angrily at them that this part of the beach is only for her customers.

James is unable to resist his heritage. It's a long standing tradition for gay men to be patronised by hideously ugly old women attempting to recapture their lost youth, and he immediately offers to work for her as a waiter. Jesse, however, is young and beautiful and has no time for anything that might remind her she will one day grow old, and she spurns the offer. Meowth reminds her, however, that they don't have a lot of options, given that their Gyarados Submarine has been sunk and they can't exactly just ask the Boss for a new one. So, with great reluctance, Jesse accepts.

Ash and Brock have also accepted an offer of employment from an old person. They are trying to drum up business for the old man's restaurant, misunderstanding the old word-of-mouth strategy and just screaming at passers-by to come in and try the food. They're obviously having little luck with their efforts, everyone heading over to the nearby restaurant owned by the old crone (Brutella). The reason for this is obvious, considering who they have out front drumming up business. Yes, it's Jesse of Team Rocket, dressed in white shirt, red vest, bow tie and tiny grey skirt to show off her lovely legs. The men are rushing to the joint, dragging their girlfriends with them, leaving the old man (Moe) with no business.

When Jesse spots Ash and Brock, she taunts them by poking her tongue out and pulling an eye-lid down. Surprisingly Ash instantly recognises her, spotting James and Meowth on the upper balcony as well, and is infuriated to be getting beaten by them. As Jesse mocks them, Misty steps out with a white shirt now covering her mosquito bumps and also spots Team Rocket.

Still, where Jesse's sex appeal works, so does cuteness, and nothing is cuter than Pokémon! He calls out his, putting them to work in the restaurant, knowing that all the girls are going to gush over the sight of Bulbasaur, Squirtle, Pikachu and Charmander serving drinks, handing out fliers and just being out-and-out cute little unpaid labourers! Of course, where the girls are, the guys are soon to follow, and when guys are trying to impress girls, money will be spent! Soon more and more people are coming to Moe's restaurant, leaving Brutella's place unattended and Team Rocket without jobs to do, which means no money.

As Jesse and James contemplate what they can do, Meowth stares on with a fixed, happy grin, not blinking once. You can put this down to bad animation or just the fact that Meowth is maniacally happy, you decide. Whatever the case, Meowth has come up with a plan. If you can't beat them.... sabotage the hell out of them!

Pikachu and Squirtle find their fliers being blown out of their hands as sudden gusts of wind come out of nowhere, or rather, straight out of a large fan Meowth has set up for just that reason. The next part of Meowth's plan involves pumping large amounts of gas into Moe's kitchen, where Charmander is keeping his oven alight as he prepares noodles. The resulting combination of gas, fire and noodles leaves the kitchen full of soot and Moe coughing smoke, the noodles ruined.

Next, Meowth enjoys a delightful banana, tossing the peel over his shoulder just as Bulbasaur steps out to deliver some drinks. The tough as nails Pokémon can't defy the laws of comedy and spills over, dropping all of his drinks and crashing hard into the floor. Misty instantly rushes to his rescue, tripping over Meowth's next discarded banana skin and dropping hot food, drinks and dessert all over the customers, who rise up in fury before storming out. They're followed by more and more people until Ash, Brock and Pikachu find themselves standing alone in front of the once again deserted Restaurant, a lone flier sliding by in the cold wind.

Inside the Restaurant the Pokémon and humans sit dejected, their plan a failure. Ash apologises to Moe who takes it all in stride, thanking Ash and telling him he did his best. Misty is furious, however, unable to believe that they're willing to give it up so easily. She tries to fire them up, and is helped out by an unlikely source when Brutella steps into the deserted restaurant with Team Rocket in tow.

Ash is furious to see them, and gets even angrier as Brutella lays in some sarcastic comments about how "busy" the place is, driving Moe into a fury, roaring at her to get out. Brutella just chuckles, reminding him that he owes her money for the loan she gave him... and she wants her money tomorrow or she'll take his boat! He responds angrily that he'll have her money, but she just waves her hand dismissively and leaves, taking the old man's dignity with her.

In the Japanese edition, the "WHO'S THAT POKEMON!?!" segment saw the "Pokémon" revealed to be Brutella, who has bottles and assorted pieces of junk thrown at her before a bathtub is dropped on her head!

Back in the Restaurant, Moe has given up, telling the kids that there is nothing that he can do now, Brutella has won and it's time for him to pack up his business. He always wanted to travel around the world on the boat before it was "too late", but now it will never happen. Ash tells him he can't give up on his dream, and of course it all comes back to HIM as he starts going on about wanting to be a Pokémon Master. Brock and Misty agree, but then the question comes up.... HOW are they going to get the money?

"Mind if I make a suggestion," says a familiar voice, the shocked kids turn to find themselves facing... PROFESSOR OAK!?! What the hell is Oak doing there? Well maybe he came to see his presumed dead illegal bastard of a son? Or maybe, just maybe considering the hideous Hawaiian shirt he is wearing and the skimpy green bikini being worn by his date Delia, he's here for a titty contest!?!

"Mum!" gasps Ash in shock, throwing up his arms in shock, completely confused as to why she is there. Oak chuckles that they'll explain "later" (hahahaha) and hands over a magazine with an article about the Annual Porta Vista Beach Beauty and Pokémon Costume Contest is due to start... today! Apparently somebody came up with the idea to mix the appeal of sexiness and cuteness together in one unholy fetishistic abomination, and the result is an annual swimsuit contest in which Pokémon dress up and are awarded points for creativity, and women wear bikinis and are awarded points for the size of their titties.

Ash, who isn't the brightest spark, doesn't understand how this helps them. Oak points out that the contest attracts thousands of people, and they're all going to need to eat! So why not advertise Moe's place and get them to all come here? Well probably because the sponsorship rights for these types of things are usually sown up months (if not years!) in advance, but apparently Porta Vista is really shittily run and nobody has done this yet! Ash is delighted, and instantly forgets about the Swinger's Holiday his Mummy and Daddy are on and agrees. Misty declares she wants to enter the beauty contest, and Oak agrees (oh Oak), saying there is a prize both for the Pokémon Contest AND for the girl with the most appreciated titties. Everyone cheers up immensely, since apparently they figure there is a massive paedophile community on the beach and Misty is a shoe-in to win.

Pidgeotto is sent out dropping fliers to advertise Moe's restaurant, and girls and guys by their hundreds show up, much to Moe's tearful delight and Brutella's handkerchief biting fury. Brock is somehow now the M.C for the event (these things are REALLY sloppily run!), and Ash settles down next to his mother who offers a lame excuse for her presence by saying she and Oak are here as part of a tour group - the Pallet Town Volunteer patrol. Ash happily accepts this clear lie, and Oak tells her that his mother has been pretty worried about him - probably due to that whole,"Officer Jenny called at 3 in the morning to tell us you were dead!" St. Anne thing!

She then asks him if he's been staying out of trouble, and Ash tells her he is.... until he remembers stealing that boat and crashing into the wharf. He begins to tell her, but Moe saves his ass, telling Mrs. Ketchum that Ash and his Pokémon have been a Godsend and really helped his business.

The contest begins!

The first contestant is Misty, stepping out in her little red bikini, greeted with delight from males in the audience who should know better, much to the chagrin of their girlfriends. Misty waves to the crowd as she walks down the runway, mumbling to herself that this is embarrassing AND degrading BUT they need the money - words used by many young girls and guys in the past! She poses as Staryu and Squirtle (wearing a bizarre helmet) float down and bob back and forth behind her before Squirtle squirts a tiny fountain of water up in the air, causing beads of water to fall down around Misty as she grins and poses for the lecherous perverts in the crowd. It's heaven, she's the center of attention (or at least her chest is), and nothing can take that away from her, nothi-



HOLY SHIT!

Yes, Jesse and James have arrived on the scene, slamming Misty out of the way to reveal.... well, there is really no other way to put this, to reveal two absolutely incredible sets of tits! Jesse is all decked out in a delightful two piece, blue bikini that shows off her womanly curves in all of their glory. But James is ALSO decked out in a lovely two piece orange number. A towel is wrapped around his waist to hide his... "extra" features, and the outfit delightfully showing off HIS womanly curves too!

And what curves they are! held together by two tiny triangles of material, James has gained a large pair of breasts somewhere along his journeys and he couldn't be happier, all decked out in make-up and lip stick, his eyebrows teased and his body cocked at an inviting angle.
"James!" gasps Misty in shock, "What kind of a man are you!"
"Relax," laughs James.
"James is more of a woman than you'll ever be," chuckles Jesse before James offers Misty a demonstration of the wonders of his bosoms. Grabbing the little clasp between her breasts, he twists it, making them expand as he pumps more air into them. Yes folks, they aren't real, though they are spectacular, and the sight of them pumping up and then back down gives Misty a definite shock as her eyes grow wide and she takes an involuntary step back.... and it only gets dodgier from there!

James thrusts his hands behind his head and thrusts his chest forward, telling the crowd that yes, he's alllll woman! The crowd reacts very favourably to this, whooping and cheering in excitement, even some of the girls! Brock cries out his own excitement, telling them to check out the racks on that pair... and it only gets dodgier from there!

James cups his breasts as Misty begins to cry, fondling himself and twisting his chest back and forth as he mocks the little girl, telling her that his tits are too much for a little girl like her, but maybe in eight years or so she might develop something! Yes, this "kids'" show has a man dressed in a two piece bikini with inflatable tits fondling himself in front of a 10 year old girl!

Brock has finally realised something is afoot, as his finely tuned girl-dar detects something a little wrong with the hot girl with the blue hair. Oak and Moe don't, however, staring with unmistakable lust at Jesse and James' hot bodies as Ash angrily shakes his fist in front of his perplexed mother. It seems that he KNOWS it is Team Rocket, not because he's meet them before and can see through their disguises, but because he's a paranoid little bastard and blames all the problems in his life on Team Rocket!

Of course none of this was seen in the English edition - after Misty came out and got sprinkled with water while perverts lusted at her tiny tits, the episode cut directly to Koffing and Ekans as an Omastar. Remember - tweenage sexuality is absolutely fine, but no inflatable tits on a man!

Jesse and James' "Pokémon" is introduced, a bizarre combination of Ekans and Koffing that floats out down the runway. Koffing is wearing a beard and Ekans is wrapped around his head like a turban, making him either Omastar - a very rare Pokémon - or some kind of ancient Indian Guru. He floats joyfully out, happy as always to be Koffing, and bobs gently at the end of the runway before being cruelly kicked off onto the sand by the foot of... Gary Oak!?!

Yes, Gary has arrived, much to Ash's chagrin, and with him are his cheerleaders, decked out in their swimming costumes and looking quite good indeed, although none of them hold a candle to Jesse, let alone James. Gary appears to share his Grandfather's taste for horrendously bad Hawaiian shirts, wearing a pink number with blue palm trees set across it. The crowd screams their approval as Professor Oak and Mrs. Ketchum both let a sweat drop appear on their foreheads. Maybe they thought this was a clandestine holiday, and while it's all right for dim old Ash to know they're here, Gary will instantly know something's up if he sees them together.

Gary informs everyone in the crowd that he is here, taking great glee in mocking Ash. The girls then break into chants for Gary, and he turns to thank them before casting his eyes back at Ash to see what his younger Uncle thinks of all the ass he's supposedly getting. Ash reacts typically enough, leaping to his feet - which knocks Pikachu to the floor - and charging down towards Gary as the cheerleaders each pose for the crowd, much to Brock's lecherous delight. Brock's delight is Misty's misery, as she hides back in the building, sighing in resignation that nobody is going to vote for her now.

Jesse and James are furious, the attention that was all on them (or their titties, at least) is now on Gary's cheerleaders. But before they can do anything, Brutella grabs them and drags them back to her Beach-house where, unfortunately, they are back in their uniforms. She informs them in no uncertain terms that she wants the contest destroyed, along with Moe's restaurant. Team Rocket are a little taken aback by this, as they're thieves, not vandals, but she insists and, given how much effort it takes not to puke just being in her presence, they agree to give it the old Team Rocket try. Plus she's kind of blackmailing them, since she knows they're in Team Rocket!

She takes them out back, where they discover she has salvaged and repaired their Gyarados Submarine, and they quickly leap inside before submerging into the underground tunnel leading out to the sea. Inside the submarine, Jesse shocks her partners and herself by talking like the hideous Brutella for a moment, and commands them to dive so that they can finish this business and get as far away from this horrible tourist trap as possible.

Meanwhile Ash is confronting Gary, angry at having him show up to steal all the attention away. But it's an open contest, so what's to stop him from entering? Ash wants a Pokémon battle but Gary laughs that he only bought his girls with him, not his Pokémon. Ash is furious but Brock intervenes, snapping at Ash that the contest is open to all entrants and they can't exclude Gary just because Ash doesn't like him. Gary takes the opportunity to mock Ash a little more, but before the fight can continue, Jesse commands James to make the Gyarados land-based and it flies out of the water, riding on tracks along the sand, terrifying everybody in sight.

Ash instantly grabs a microphone and yells at everyone not to be scared, it's not a real Gyarados, just a mechanical one operated by Team Rocket. Misty watches from behind the scenes, delighted to see the take charge Ash she remembers from their first encounter - THIS is the Ash who stole her bike! Oak and Delia stand beside the runway, staring with pride at Ash, either because of his clear-headed control of the situation or because they are impressed that he could pull off wearing those shorts!

Team Rocket are furious at having her plan defeated by this little punk yet again, and James fires the missile, which he does. The missile flies extraordinarily slowly towards them as Gary asks what Ash plans to do now - freak out? But if there is one thing Ash knows how to do, it is fight! He calls out Pidgeotto and Charmander together, Pidgeotto catching Charmander in its claws so they can fly into the slow missile's path, where Charmander fries it with its Flamethrower attack.

This unexpected heat sets the missile back to homing mode and it turns back to its source, heading straight for Team Rocket. As they all hold stock poses and Meowth goes cross-eyed, The Gyarados Submarine gasps in shock and then turns to flee, Team Rocket pedalling madly, James whimpering like a little girl as they blindly try to escape the missile. Brutella screams for them to turn back, as they're heading right for her place, but Team Rocket are too terrified to hear and they slam right into the Crone's Café, followed by the missile, and seconds later Team Rocket (and Brutella) are blasting off again!

The following day Moe - apparently having paid back all the money he owed - waves goodbye to the kids as he sets sail for his round the world journey at last. Either he made enough money from the contest to retire, or the ensuing publicity that he was able to get for his restaurant allowed him to sell to a heartless Multi-national Corporation for millions. He thanks them all for their great help, doesn't give them any of the money he made, and sails off into the sunset.
The trio head back onto the beach, where they discover Ash's Mummy and Daddy waiting. Mrs. Ketchum is holding a trophy and presenting her apparently award-winning ass to the camera. She and Ash say goodbye yet again, without a hug or kiss or anything, then turn and leave, walking down the beach into the sunset.

Mrs. Ketchum watches them go with a smile, then looks down at the trophy and smiles, happy to know she's still got it. In the English edition the trophy has Ash's name on it and says he is number one in their hearts, but Ash's titties weren't up there on the stage getting the cheers! Yes, Gentle Dodgers, Mrs. Ketchum won that swimsuit contest and we all know it! She looks up at Ash one last time and says goodbye once again with a smile, and then her and Professor Oak head back to their hotel room. What they do there would cross the line from Dodginess to Dirtiness, and thus must remain a mystery.

Suffice it to say they'll find some interesting uses for that Trophy.
