Pokémon Sun and Moon’s 64th episode won’t be broadcast in the US, leading fans to speculate it might have been banned.
Polygon reports that Ash’s get-up in this particular episode of the Pokémon Sun and Moon anime might be why it’s not coming stateside.
Disney XD’s programming schedule makes no mention of the episode, which sees Ash dress up as a Passimian, wearing a furry suit, with his face painted black.
This has lead some fans to believe that the episode is being skipped over because of the similarities to blackface.
