Sex & Nudity
-
- None.
Violence & Gore
-
- An elderly man is thrown down a flight of stairs
- Multiple but mild battle sequences are spread across this 4-part anime, as typical in the Pokemon anime franchise.
- In episode 2, a member of Team Rocket pushes a man down the stairs at the Pokemon Tower. At least in the Japanese version of this episode, there are some mild references to death of Pokemon, including the fact Marowak/Garagara has been killed.
- In one scene in episode 3, there is a still shot in which a man can briefly be seen from a long distance holding a scalpel, making it implied he has been forced by Team Rocket to use it against a Pokemon, in relation to the research about a Master Ball.
Profanity
-
- At least in the Japanese version of episode 2, "bastard" is said once. Both in the English and the Japanese dub, "snot-nosed brat" is mentioned by a Team Rocket member, while in the Japanese dub "that damn brat" is uttered after a Pokemon battle between Red and Team Rocket.
- In episode 3, the Boss of Team Rocket calls Red a "brat" three times, and "fool" once, all in the Japanese version.
Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking
-
- None.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
-
- People morn over their dead Pokémon in a cemetery
- The Pokemon battle sequences are mostly mild, so no adults should worry about showing this to their children.
- In episode 2, Cubone/Karakara has lost his mother Marowak/Garagara, who is said to have been killed in the Japanese version, because of Team Rocket. This may be kinda sad for some children.
- Also in episode 2, characters go into Pokemon Tower, which is said to have been haunted by some real ghosts. Some scenes may be a little bit scary for some younger children.
- In episode 3, Team Rocket has hijacked a company, and appears to be kinda cruel as the team forces some scientists to finish a Master Ball.
Spoilers
Violence & Gore
- In episode 4, Green is shown to have been pretty injured due to a battle with a new but strong Pokemon species he hadn't met before.
Profanity
- In episode 4, Professor Oak/Yukinari Oukido calls Green a "bakana", or simply a "foolish boy" if English dub is viewed. Also during a scene set in the Pokemon Hall of Fame, the professor calls Red something like "dummy" or "silly" in the Japanese version, instead of "oh, come on now"...
- During a battle with Mewtwo, Red utters something like "darn" in the Japanese version.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
- In Episode 4, Reina sounds like she woke up from a nightmare when she tells Mr. Fuji that Red is going to Cerulean Cave. During this scene, she is visibly alarmed. However, Mr. Fuji is able to calm her down.
