The types of matches are usually played before a season so the coach can try a new formation or select players from the bench, like in Association football.
Some sports have an all-star game.
This means that the best players are picked from that league and they play against another all-star team or a better team from another country.
These matches are usually friendlies, but have a little more competition.
An example is the MLS All-Stars against Real Madrid CF.

Sir Syed Ahmed Khan (October 17, 1817– 27 March 1898) was a teacher and politician.
He was a philospher as well.
He was also a social reformer.
He founded the school that would later become Aligarh Muslim University.
In 1857 there was a rebellion in India.
This is known as the First Indian War of Independence.
During this time, Sir Syed kept loyal to the British; He also saved many European lives.
After the rebellion he wrote a book where he said the British were in fact those who caused the rebellion.
In order to settle the question of whether Sir Syed was a communitarian or a communalist, we need to assess the speeches and articles which he wrote.
One such speech of Sir Syed which he gave in Meerut in the year 1888 clearly shows that Sir Syed turned to arguments fielded by religious fanatics in order to develop a communal alliance between Indian Muslims and British Christians.
He said,
He was unhappy about the position of Muslims in India as their social and economic status was declining.
According to Sir Syed, Muslims had to bring a positive approach to the British and accept their ways of education.
He wanted the Muslims to benefit from the British.
To achieve this task he had to bring about cooperation between the Muslims and the British.
To do this he did the following things:
wrote the loyal Muhammadans of India to prove that Muslims were not disloyal to British and to ask the British to end their hostility.
wrote a pamphlet "essay on the causes of Indian Revolt" and pointed out the reasons for the outbreak of 1857.
This pamphlet was circulated for free amongst the British officials.
wrote Tabyin-ul-kalam to point out similarities between Islam and Christianity.
Established the British Indian Association
Sir Syed played a vital role in the educational uplift of the Muslims in India.
He did the following things to improve the educational standards:
set up a journal, Tahzib-ul-Akhlaq, which contained articles of influential Muslims who agreed with Sir Syed's approach towards education.
founded scientific society in Ghazipore in 1863.
Opened school in murdabad in 1859
Opened school in ghazipore in 1864
Made a committee to raise funds for new schools
Set up Muhammadan Anglo Oriental school in Aligarh on 24 May 1875
Set up Muhammadan educational conferences in 1866 to raise the standards of education
Sir Syed also increased the political awareness of Muslims in the Sub-continent.
At first he believed in Hindu-Muslim unity but later resolved to the two-nation theory.
In 1885 the Indian National Congress was set up.
It claimed to be the body of every Indian regardless of religion.
However it later proved to be functioning only for the Hindus and tried to eradicate the Muslims.
The Congress made three demands:
political representation according the population.
This obviously meant Hindu domination as they were a dominant majority in India and Sir Syed opposed it.
Appointment in government should be by competitive examinations.
Sir Syed opposed this because he knew that the educational standards of the Hindus was much better than the Muslims.
The next official language should be Hindi replacing Urdu.
Urdu had a special place in the Muslim hearts and Sir Syed opposed this.
This demand was accepted by the British.
Sir Syed Ahmed Khan played a vital role in improving the Muslim status.
He worked tirelessly to restore relations between the Muslims and the British.
He brought the Muslim revival through the Aligarh movement and showed the importance of education.
He brought an idea about the Two-nation theory and is hence known as "The Father of The Pakistan Movement"
United Airlines Flight 93 was an airline flight that, on September 11, 2001, was hijacked and crashed on purpose.
On that day, the flight was to fly from Newark International Airport (later renamed Newark Liberty International Airport), in Newark, New Jersey, USA to San Francisco International Airport.
The aircraft was hijacked by four men as part of the al-Qaeda organized attack on the United States on September 11, 2001.
Soon after the flight took off, the hijackers entered the cockpit and overpowered the pilots.
They took control of the aircraft and flew it toward Washington, D.C. Several passengers and crew members made telephone calls aboard the flight and learned about the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.
The passengers then decided to attack the hijackers and retake the aircraft.
The hijackers crashed the plane in a field to prevent the passengers from succeeding in breaching the cockpit door just outside Shanksville, Pennsylvania, about  northwest of Washington, D.C., killing all crew members and passengers.
An investigation determined that the actions of the passengers on board had prevented the hijackers from reaching Washington, D.C.
On September 11, 2001, United Airlines flight 93 was a scheduled morning flight from Newark to San Francisco.
The aircraft for the flight was a Boeing 757.
The aircraft could carry  182 passengers; but the flight had 37 passengers and 7 crew members, which was low.
Hijackers
The hijackers were led by Ziad Jarrah, a member of al-Qaeda.
Jarrah was born in Lebanon.
He moved to Germany in 1996, enrolling at the University of Greifswald to study German.
A year later, he moved to Hamburg, Germany and began studying aeronautical engineering at Hamburg University of Applied Sciences.
While living in Hamburg, Jarrah associated with a radical Hamburg cell of terrorists.
In November 1999, Jarrah left for Afghanistan, where he spent three months.
In Afghanistan in January 2000, he met with al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden.
Jarrah returned to Germany at the end of January and obtained a new passport with no Afghan passport stamps in February by falsely reporting his passport as stolen.
In June 2000, Jarrah arrived in Florida in June 2000.
He began taking flying lessons as well as training in hand-to-hand combat.
Four other hijackers were trained to physically fight with the crew.
Three of them accompanied Jarrah on Flight 93.
They were Ahmed al-Nami, Hamza al-Ghamdi and Mohand al-Shehri].
On August 3, 2001, the intended fifth hijacker, Mohammed al-Qahtani, flew to Orlando, Florida, USA from Dubai.
He was questioned by officials, who did not believe that he could support himself with only $2,800 cash, and suspicious that he intended to become an illegal immigrant because he was using a one-way ticket.
He was sent back to Dubai, and later  returned to Saudi Arabia.
At 5:01 a.m. on the morning of September 11, Jarrah placed a cell phone call from Newark to Marwan al-Shehhi, the hijacker pilot of United Airlines Flight 175, in Boston.
This call was apparently to confirm that the attacks were ready to begin.
Haznawi and Ghamdi boarded the aircraft at 07:39 and sat in first class seats 6B and 3D respectively.
Nami boarded one minute later and sat in first class seat 3C. Before boarding the plane, Jarrah made five telephone calls to Lebanon, one to France, and one to his girlfriend, Aysel Sengün, in Germany, to whom he'd sent a farewell letter the day before.
He said "I love you" three times, then hung up when she asked what was up.
With the attacks unfolding, air traffic officials began issuing warnings through the Aircraft Communication Addressing and Reporting System (ACARS).
Ed Ballinger, the United flight dispatcher, began sending text cockpit warnings to United Airlines flights at 09:19, 17 minutes after he became aware of Flight 175's impact.
Ballinger was responsible for multiple flights, and he sent the message to Flight93 at 09:23.
Ballinger received a routine ACARS message from Flight93 at 09:21: "Good morning...Nice clb (climb) outta EWR [Newark Airport]."
The message commented about the sights from the cockpit and the weather, and was signed off with the initial, "J.", indicating it came from Jason Dahl, who knew Ballinger.
At 09:22, after learning of the events at the World Trade Center, LeRoy Homer's wife, Melody Homer, had an ACARS message sent to her husband in the cockpit asking if he was all right.
At 09:24, Flight93 received Ballinger's ACARS warning, "Beware any cockpit intrusiontwo a/c [aircraft] hit World Trade Center".
At 09:26, after the pilots twice checked in with a routine altitude and weather report to an air traffic controller at the FAA's Cleveland Center, Dahl wrote a hasty, misspelled ACARS reply: "Ed cofirm latest mssg plz-Jason".
At 09:27:25, as the aircraft was crossing into eastern Ohio airspace, the flight crew responded to a routine radio call from a Cleveland air traffic controller, who told them to watch for another plane twelve miles away and two thousand feet above them.
They said contact was negative and they were looking.
This was the last communication made by the flight crew before the hijacking.
The hijacking began at 09:28.
By this time, Flights 11 and 175 had already crashed into the World Trade Center and Flight77 was within nine minutes of striking the Pentagon.
The hijackers on those flights had waited no more than thirty minutes to commandeer the aircraft, most likely striking after the seat belt sign had been turned off and cabin service had begun.
It is unknown why the hijackers on Flight93 waited 46 minutes to begin their assault.
According to reports from passengers and crew, the hijackers tied red bandanas around their heads and sprang from their seats.
At 9:28:05, as the flight cruised at 35,000 feet over eastern Ohio, the plane abruptly dropped 685 feet.
At 09:28:17, eleven seconds into the descent, Cleveland heard a man scream into the cockpit radio: "Mayday!
Mayday!"
A second raspy shout went, "Hey!
Get out of here!"
Cleveland Air Traffic Controller John Werth didn't know the source of the call he heard, and could only make out what he heard as "just some gruttural, gruttural sounds."
He responded, "Somebody call Cleveland?",
before he noticed Flight 93's rapid descent and heard at 09:28:50 another transmission from the cockpit, screams alongside an even more desperate and garbled refrain: "Hey!
The commission made no conclusion as to whether it was Dahl or co-pilot LeRoy Homer giving the distress call, but when Melody Homer and Sandy Dahl, Jason Dahl's wife, together listened to the tape, Melody Homer claimed to have recognised her husband’s voice as the man who was shouting.
The flight dropped  in half a minute before the hijackers stabilized the aircraft at 34,315 feet, and soon began climbing southeast.
Of the four hijacked aircraft on 9/11, Flight93 was the only aircraft that broadcast a distress call.
It is likely that because the pilots had been warned of the World Trade Center attacks and to beware of cockpit intrusion, when the hijackers attacked them, they purposely pressed on the talk button of the radio microphone, so sounds of the struggle in the cockpit will be heard by FAA ground controllers and by pilots of planes on the same radio frequency.
Werth believed it was not just a call for help, but a warning as well.
During the next two minutes, Werth made seven attempts to contact Flight 93, with no reply, while other controllers moved nearby flights out of the way.
The cockpit voice recorder began recording the final thirty minutes of Flight93 at 09:31:57.
At this moment, it recorded a hijacker’s voice, thought to be Jarrah, speaking with a halting command of accented English and breathing and panting heavily, apparently from exertion, perhaps from a struggle, "Ladies and gentlemen: here the captain.
Please sit down, keep remaining seating.
So sit."
The commission believed Jarrah tried to make an announcement to the passengers, but keyed the wrong switch, sending the message to Cleveland controllers; Mohamed Atta had made the same error on Flight 11.
Werth understood the transmission, and tried to keep the hijacker pilot talking, responding, "Calling Cleveland center, you're unreadable.
Say again, slowly."
He sent a new text warning message to Flight 93: “High Security Alert.
Secure Cockpit.”
Werth asked other pilots in his sector to tail Flight 93, to keep eyes on the hijacked plane.
The flight recordings indicate that a wounded man, believed to be Dahl, was moaning in the cockpit.
The man pleaded, "No more," or "No," repeatedly, as the hijackers shouted for him to sit down and to stop touching something.
Sandy believes that Dahl took actions to interfere with the hijackers, including possibly disengaging the autopilot, and rerouting the plane's radio frequency so that Jarrah's attempts to communicate with the passengers were instead transmitted to air traffic controllers.
Tom Burnett made several phone calls to his wife beginning at 09:30:32 from rows 24 and 25, though he was assigned a seat in row 4.
Burnett explained that the plane had been hijacked by men claiming to have a bomb.
He also said a passenger had been stabbed with a knife and that he believed the bomb threat was a ruse to control the passengers.
He told her to call the authorities, then hung up.
During his second call to her, Burnett said the stabbed passenger was dead; he checked for a pulse but found none.
It is believed that passenger Mark Rothenberg was the victim.
Rothenberg was the only first class passenger who didn't make a phone call after the hijacking.
Rothenberg was seated in 5B, and Haznawi sat directly behind him in 6B. On Flight 11, Satam al-Suqami in seat 10B attacked passenger Daniel Lewin, who was seated directly in front of him in 9B. One assumption is that Haznawi attacked Rothenberg, unprovoked, to frighten other passengers and crew into compliance.
Alternatively, Rothenberg may have attempted to stop the hijacking and confront the hijackers.
Burnett's wife informed him of the attacks on the World Trade Center and he replied that the hijackers were "talking about crashing this plane.... Oh my God.
It's a suicide mission."
He began asking her for information about the attacks, interrupting her from time to time to tell the others nearby what she was saying.
In his next call, Burnett, who had been informed of the attack on the Pentagon, said he was putting together a plan and that "a group" were helping him.
He ended his last call by saying, "Don't worry, we're going to do something."
In the cockpit, the wounded man continued to moan and seemingly repeat disengaging the autopilot, as at 09:40, there were horn sounds that indicating the hijackers were repeatedly having trouble with the autopilot and were fiddling with a green knob. "
This green knob?"
one of the hijackers asks the other in Arabic.
Another hijacker responded, "Yes, that's the one."
At 09:41:56, the wounded man, in a moaning tone, said, "Oh, man!".
United Airlines Flight 93  Brief summary, as well as complete victim list
Dabeer-ul-Mulk, Najm-ud-daulah Mirza Asadullah Beg Khan (; ) born Mirza Asadullah Baig Khan (Urdu: ; ), pen-name Ghalib (Urdu: , ġhālib means "dominant") and  Asad (Urdu: , Asad means "lion")  (27 December 1796 — 15 February 1869), was a great classical Urdu and Persian poet of the Indian subcontinent.
Most notably, he wrote several ghazals during his life, which have since been interpreted and sung in many different ways by different people.
He is considered to be the most popular and influential poet of the Urdu language.
He was born in 1796 in Akbarabad (present Agra).
His father Abdullah Beg Khan and uncle Nasrullah Beg Khan born with his college friends
in the Army.
Mirza Ghalib become orphaned when he was just 5 years old.
He lived with his uncle for 4 years, when his uncle too died.
He started saying sher in Agra itself.
He married the daughter of Nawab Ilahi Baksh 'Maaroof' and therefore moved to Delhi.
In Delhi he devoted his full concentration to poetry.
Soon he mastered the Persian language.
So that no one should call him be-ustad ( without a teacher) he fabricated a story that he had an Iranian teacher Abdul Samad live in house for two years to teach him Farsi.
Ghalib was always proud of his Farsi poetry but he is known more by his Urdu prose and poetry.
He always lived his life lacking money.
After 1857 the support from the Royal durbar stopped.
The pension from the British Government was stopped because he was suspected of supporting the rebels.
He even traveled to Calcutta to restart the pension but to no avail.
He went to the Nawab of Rampur, who promised him Rupees 200 if he lived in Rampur and Rs.
100 if he lived anywhere else.
His pension was resumed 3 years after that, but all that money was used up for paying old debts.
Ghalib died in 1869.
Not only Urdu poetry but the prose is also indebted to Mirza Ghalib.
His letters gave foundation to the easy and popular Urdu.
Before Ghalib, letter writing in Urdu was highly ornamental.
He made his letters "talking" by using words and sentences as if he is talking to the reader.
According to him
His letters were very informal, some times he will just write the name of the person and start the letter.
He himself was very humorous and also made his letter very interesting.
In Urdu ghazals, along with the love and beauty Ghalib added all the facets of life.
Because of him the canvas of Urdu ghazal became very extended.

Saare Jahan se Achcha is a poem.
It was re-written in 1931.
It became a symbol of resistance to the English rule of British-occupied India.
The poem exists in different versions.
Saare Jahan Se Achchha () is one of the enduring patriotic poems of the Urdu language.
Written originally for children in the ghazal style of Urdu poetry by poet Muhammad Iqbal, the poem was published in the weekly journal Ittehad on 14 August 1931.
Recited by Iqbal the following year at Government College, Lahore, now in Pakistan, it quickly became an anthem of opposition to the British rule in India.

ECAC Lacrosse, in full the ECAC Lacrosse League, was an American college sports conference that only played men's lacrosse.
The conference, a member of NCAA Division I, was founded in 1999 with play beginning in 2000 (both events were in the same school year).
The conference started with six members, and grew to as many as 10 schools.
In its final years, it went through many membership changes; the biggest ones were:
The original Big East Conference added the sport for the 2010 season, leading three members to leave.
At the same time, two other members left for the Colonial Athletic Association.
The Great Western Lacrosse League collapsed after the 2009 season, with five of that league's six final schools joining ECAC Lacrosse.
ECAC Lacrosse disbanded after the 2014 season.
This came after the Big Ten Conference, home to two of the final five members, said it would start a men's lacrosse league in the 2015 season.
Two of the other three final members soon announced moves to other conferences.
Final members
These schools were members in the league's last season of 2014.
Because NCAA lacrosse is a spring sport, the year of joining is the calendar year before the first season of play.
Other members
These schools left ECAC Lacrosse before 2014.
As in the previous table, the year of joining is the calendar year before the first season of play.
The Great Western Lacrosse League was a group of colleges and universities that played men's lacrosse against one another from 1984 to 2009.
The conference disbanded after Notre Dame left when its main conference, the Big East, started a men's lacrosse league.
The remaining five members joined ECAC Lacrosse.

The nightingale (Luscinia megarhynchos) is a small bird.
It used to be put in the thrush family Turdidae.
Now it is put on the Old World flycatchers, a group often called the chats or chat-thrushes.
Its resemblance to thrushes is an example of convergent evolution.
It is a migratory insectivorous species.
It breeds in forests and scrubs in Europe and south-west Asia.
The distribution is more southerly than the very closely related thrush nightingale Luscinia luscinia.
It nests on the ground in or next to dense bushes.
It passes the winter southern Africa.
Studies have shown that nightingales seem to choose places to breed that meet certain criteria (Wink 1973):
less than 200 meters above mean sea level
mean air temperature during the growing season above 14 °C
more than 20 days/year on which temperatures are above 25 °C
less than 750mm of rain per year.
no closed canopy.
The Nightingale is slightly larger than the robin, at around 15-16.5 cm length.
It is plain brown above except for the reddish tail.
Nightingales are named so because they frequently sing at night as well as during the day.
The name has been used for well over 1,000 years, being highly recognizable even in its Anglo-Saxon form - 'nihtingale'.
It means 'night songstress'.
Early writers assumed the female sang; in fact, it is the male.
The song is loud, with an impressive range of whistles, trills and gurgles.
Its song is particularly noticeable at night because few other birds are singing.
This is why its name (in several languages) includes "night".
Only unpaired males sing regularly at night, and nocturnal song is likely to serve attracting a mate.
Singing at dawn, during the hour before sunrise, is assumed to be important in defending the bird's territory.
Nightingales sing even more loudly in urban or near-urban environments, in order to overcome the background noise.
The most characteristic feature of the song is a loud whistling crescendo, absent from the song of thrush nightingale.
It has a frog-like alarm call.
A Provençal folk song, The Nightingale Which Flies, inspired Tchaikovsky when composing his Humoresque opus 10-2.
Database entry includes justification for why this species is of least concern

is a media franchise owned by The Pokémon Company.
It is based on the concept of hatching, catching, playing with, staying with, befriending, defending, raising, trading, training and battling with hundreds of different creatures.
The concept was made by Satoshi Tajiri, Pokémon's creator.
It is represented in many types of media, most famously video games, a still-running anime series, manga, and a trading card game.
There are eight regions in the Pokemon games.
Although there are 905 different Pokémon, most people will know of the mascot of the company, an electric mouse Pokémon known as Pikachu.
The video games have sold more copies than every other series except Nintendo's Mario series.
A number of Pokémon games have been released, mostly on Nintendo systems, with the exception of Pokémon GO as The Pokémon Company is owned by Nintendo.
Most games are based on catching, training and battling Pokémon, and the player is a Pokémon trainer who does all these things.
There are a number of aspects to the games.
In the games, Pokémon are creatures that trainers catch (using various types of capture devices known as Poké Balls), train, battle, collect, and trade with each other.
As of the seventh generation, there are 802 of them.
One of the most popular Pokémon in competitive battling is Mega Kangaskhan, because of its ability to hit the target twice with each move.
Another Pokémon game is the famous Pokémon GO that can be played only on touch phones.
It has a big difference from the other games but its basics are the same.
This game uses Augmented Reality and the phone's GPS to give the player a very real sense of play.
People literally walk around their neighborhoods, explore new places and catch Pokémon which can be captured along with your surrounding environment by using the phone's camera.
People can also go to special places or landmarks where there would be Poké Stops and Gyms which can be used to collect items, battle other Pokémon etc.
This game has been a huge success when it was released and is widely considered as the beginning of the AR era.
The gameplay of the Pokémon series of role-playing video games involves the capture and training of many of fictional creatures called "Pokémon" and using them to battle other trainers.
Each generation of games builds upon this idea by introducing new Pokémon, items, and gameplay concepts.
Some of the general ideas were featured elsewhere before being introduced in the games; double battles appeared in the anime long before appearing in the games, and Pokémon abilities are similar to the Pokémon Powers first seen in the Pokémon Trading Card Game.
Not long after Pokémon Red and Blue (the first Pokémon video games) were released, a Pokémon anime was created.
It was first shown in Japan in early 1997, and in the United States in late 1998.
The anime started what has been called "Pokémania", which meant that after the anime came out, it became very popular among children, and many parents assumed it was a fad and no one would care about it in a couple years.
However, it was never cancelled, and it is still running.
The anime shows the adventures of Ash Ketchum, (with the exception of some special series) a ten-year-old Pokémon trainer who has many adventures, meeting many new people and Pokémon.
His most famous Pokémon, and probably the most famous Pokémon, is Pikachu.
A number of Pokémon films have also been made that relate to the anime.
The first one was Pokémon: The First Movie (released in 1998 in Japan and 1999 in United States).
There are more movies still being made.
There have now been seventeen films released.
Trading card game
A Pokémon trading card game also exists.
Players use Pokémon cards to battle each other and collect them by opening packs.
There are also live tournaments hosted by Nintendo.
Pokémon's damage is counted by "damage counters" or objects which are placed on the cards to keep track of damage.
After you add up all of the numbers on the damage counters, you subtract it from the card's HP (health points) to find out how much HP is left.
Only 60 cards are used in a player's deck, and six of these are set aside in a pile called "prize cards."
After one player knocks out an opponent's card, the defeater takes just one face-down prize card for non-EX Pokémon.
Meanwhile, when someone makes an EX Pokémon faint, he or she gets two prize cards.
There is one discard pile for each player, where fainted Pokémon go.
Some ways to win are taking all of your prize cards, and/or making your opponent draw all of his or her cards.
There are cards designed as various Pokémon, which usually need "Energy" cards to use attacks.
There are also "Trainer" cards, which are used for additional things other than direct Pokémon attacks, like giving Pokémon more HP.
Most fans of the series agree that a good deck is made of about twenty "Pokémon" cards, twenty "Energy" cards, and twenty "Trainer" cards.
Players can evolve their Benched or Active Pokémon.
The Bench is a spot that can hold Pokémon, and these Pokémon can be evolved with its evolution card.
Active Pokémon can evolve too, but can also use attacks.
To evolve a Pokémon, you can just put its evolution card on top of it.
All Pokémon cards have types.
The type affects how effective an attack is.
For example, a certain Lightning-type Pikachu card can use an attack that normally deals 80 damage.
If the Pikachu uses it against a Pokémon with a Weakness of +20 to Lighting, you add 20 more damage to the normal damage to make it 100.
Types can also make things less effective.
There is also a special kind of Pokémon in the trading card game called "EX" Pokémon.
EX & GX Pokémon are stronger than regular ones, but when they are knocked out, the player's opponent draws two of their prize cards (with regular Pokémon it is just one.)
Also, there is another special type of Pokémon in the trading card game called "Delta Species" Pokémon, which have types that are different than typical cards, like an Electric-type Charmander, who is usually Fire-type.
In the "Diamond & Pearl" trading card game expansion, "LV.X" cards were introduced.
These are a little like evolution cards, but they can only be used on Active Pokémon.
In the "HeartGold & SoulSilver" expansion, The Pokémon Company released new cards, called LEGEND cards.
LEGEND cards are two cards sold separately that when put together make one picture.
They can be used only when the two cards they are made of are put together; they cannot work separately.
The Pokémon media franchise, especially the anime, has been often criticized by organizations such as PETA.
An episode of the anime called "Dennō Senshi Porygon" ("Electric Soldier Porygon" translated in English) was first shown in Japan on December 16, 1997.
One part of the episode showed quick flashing red and blue lights.
This caused 685 Japanese children to have epileptic seizures.
Because of this, the anime went on a four-month break, and several laws were put in place regarding the flashing lights.
Also, the previous episodes released had been toned down when Pokemon aired again.
Porygon, one of the main characters in the episode, has not appeared again in the anime ever since "Dennō Senshi Porygon".
It has two evolved forms, Porygon2 and Porygon-Z, and neither of them have appeared in the anime at all, even though it was Ash Ketchum's Pikachu that made the explosion that caused the flashing lights.
An episode of The Simpsons called "Thirty Minutes Over Tokyo" made fun of "Dennō Senshi Porygon", as well as an episode of South Park called "Chinpokomon".
Jynx
Jynx, a species of Pokémon, was criticized because it looked like it was using blackface (an old film-making technique that makes white actors look African-American).
It was also criticized because it looked like a drag queen (a man who dresses as a woman).
This was not an issue in Japan, but it caused a lot of argument in the United States because of the United States' history of racism.
Ever since then, Jynx has purple skin instead of black skin, and anime episodes featuring it were banned due to argument.
Game censorship
Another Nazi-related censorship was the trading card Koga's Ninja Trick.
In this card, there are various symbols, one of them being the swastika.
The swastika symbol is used in some cultures and religions.
However, it is also used as a symbol of Nazism.
Because of this, the symbol was changed in the English and International versions of the trading card.

Not long after Pokémon Red and Blue (the first Pokémon video games outside of Japan) were released, the anime was created.
It was first broadcast in Japan in early 1997, and in the United States in late 1998.
However, it was never cancelled, and it is still running, and continues to maintain a fanbase consisting of people of all ages.
The first one was Pokémon: The First Movie (released on 1998 in Japan and on 1999 in North America).
They are still being made.
