This episode became very controversial due to Jynx having black skin and other unfortunate implications. Since then Jynx has been re-colored to purple. This episode remains largely banned from circulation however, but it is available on the DVD releases.

This episode was pulled from rotation and is not believed to have aired since 2000.

Jessie reads the title of this episode.

This episode was intended to follow "Electric Soldier Porygon" but ended up being delayed due to the broadcast hiatus.

In this episode, Ash uses charmander to try to weaken Jynx. However, Ash is not supposed to have a charmander because it evolved into Charizard a couple of episodes earlier.

This was a great episode, but I was confused by a lot of it. I mean, we get this Lapras that appears that is able to speak telepathically with really no explanation. Oh well, it was something different for the anime. It was weird to see Christmas being featured in an anime as it isn't very relevant in Japan. Well, they actually view it as a time to eat fried chicken or something. Why wasn't there fried chicken in this? It's great we get to see a young Jessie. She never had an origins episode like James and Meowth, so we have to piece her backstory more.

This episode features Jessie getting revenge on Santa Claus because his Jynx stole her doll. It turns out it was just repairing it! Then again, that is weird how Santa just chose not to visit people who don't believe in him. Honestly not that nice of a Santa. We still get this cute little bit at the end. Santa has a Rapidash instead of eight reindeer. This was before Stantler was created, but since Santa travels around the world, wouldn't he already be aware of the existence of Stantler? This episode was pretty weird, but still very enjoyable. Jynx became controversial and was in an episode aired right next to Porygon! ***1/2
