This article is about an episode of the Pokémon animated series that has not yet aired anywhere in the world. As such, it is a reflection of what is currently known about the episode, rather than coverage of the episode as a whole.
(Japanese: ゆれる島の戦い！ドジョッチVSナマズン！！Shaking Island Battle! Dojoach VS Namazun!!) was intended to be the 101st episode of Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire, and the 375th episode of the Pokémon animated series. It was set to air in Japan on November 4, 2004, but the episode was skipped due to strong earthquakes in Niigata prefecture nearly a week before the first airing of AG100. It has never aired in Japan or in any other country, and is thus not considered canon.
Likely as a result of this episode's cancellation, the move Earthquake, as well as similar moves such as Fissure and Magnitude, has not been used in the animated series in any later point.
This was the only Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire episode to be banned in every country, the second episode of the entire animated series to be banned in every country (the first being EP038), and the first regular episode of the entire animated series to never be aired at all. Two laterepisodes were also cancelled just before airing because of an earthquake.
