Did she catch Lickitung prior to "So Near Yet So Farfetch'd" or after it?"Princess vs.Princess" came 3 episodes later didn't it? but Jesse mentioned Lickitung as her pokeballs drifted down a stream!Odd?

Lickitung got caught in Princess v.s. Princess. But In Japan there is a real princess day (or so I heard) so they switched the episodes to match the holiday. They didn't thought about this mistake I guess

[Totodilemew]

I think they cut it out along with Children's Day because of so many Japanese references. Then fans were asking where Lickitung came from, so they dubbed and showed those two.

Actually,now that I think of it there was some news at Serebii.Net about the skipping of some episodes due to cultural reasons/use of guns!But there is FAR WORSE shows on TV than this!

Yeah, the episode originally aired in Japan before the Far'fetchd on. Princess Day is a holiday in Japan and not anywhere else, so the dubber skipped it to avoid confusion. However, people were very confused at why Lickitung was floating away, so to make less confusion, they went back and dubbed it.

Thanks guys for explaining the episode to me! I kinda miss alot of the old Team Rocket Pokemon!But maybe it was time for a change!

Well, the question was answered, so I'll just close this now.
