I thought it was maybe due to the suffix being problematic, but “torpedo” shows up without issue. Tried with safe search on/moderate and off.

    That’s because they’re known words to exclude from the filter. Nobody’s flagged up sharpedo to their CSAM filter team yet.

      So interestingly, slight misspellings will show the pokemon with a “Showing results for Sharpedo”, but if you click on that link the results will disappear. I also can’t find any other blocked examples with different made up words.

      It’s weird, like it has been manually blocked

      Someone should send this post to some tech news/blog and have them look into it 😄
