Dub edits

This episode article is part of Project Anime, a Bulbapedia project that covers all aspects of Pokémon animation.

I remember reading a post on this episode's review thread, and someone said that a scene was removed from this episode. After Pikachu uses Thunderbolt on the potion, Ash drinks it in the Japanese version. That scene was taken out of the dub. I have no idea why though.

Nevermind what I said. I have found out that was just a rumor which was apparently proved to be false. There were no dub edits in this particular episode.
