When dubbed over cartoons are censored and keep what needed to be censored in.

First up, here's a very early episode of Pokémon in its original Japanese guise. Note the intro song.

Yes, the song has Ash Ketchum detailing that he will look everywhere for Pokémon, including underneath a girl's skirt at which you hear the girl screaming and you'll see her pushing her skirt down as Pikachu darts between her legs.

Of course that was something that simply wouldn't go when the series was syndicated for a Western dub, so the footage of the intro was chopped up and a new song was written, which omitted lifting up girls' skirts to see if there's any Pokémon hiding there...

...BUT, the footage of that girl trying her hardest to keep her modesty when Pikachu darts between her legs is actually KEPT IN THERE!

Doesn't that defeat the purpose here?
