Paint Edit

The dubs removed the Exploding With Life (命爆発) kanji that appears just as Corni poses for the Mega Evolution which is also the dialog she speaks during the characters display on screen. The title of this episode in Japanese also included those kanji. The English dub changes her dialog to: "Unlock... the power within!" The Korean and Thai dubs, based off Japanese, add their own text.
