I bet a stereotype edit: maybe OLM did it because TPCi or TPC Asia ordered them to do so, though? Maybe they pre-censored it for International release as a fear those of Spanish decent or Mexican/Latin America origin would take offense to it? These are ironically 4Kids-tier censorship/edits going on these days, but humorously, 4Kids themselves kept Brock's Maracas throughout the original English dub? LMAO.

I'd have liked it for the title of a gang or something, but an episode title? Yuck, personally, maybe it's just because of TPCi's TRio abusing it all throughout DP and XY dubbed especially but I'll never look at alliterations the same way again after that tbh (a bit traumatized, the puns I got used to eventually, this otoh not so much).
As trivia, things that the kings of visual censorship (I did like their dub more despite it- this is the only Series I genuinely really enjoyed what they put out, flawed as it still was) at 4Kids/4KMedia kept in the original Pokémon dub that TPCi has not kept in the current Pokémon dub in recent years in XY-JN, since TPCi brought back the 4Kids tier standards of visual edits/censorship from Seasons 19-present (25):
this would've come from OLM themselves, had TPCi ordered it it would've only appeared in the english dub (and other dubs based on it) but since this edit also appears in the Korean dub this is definitely an OLM decision though the question is why: maybe they were TOO paranoid people might find it offensive? It's odd but TPCi is not at fault here.I bet a stereotype edit: maybe OLM did it because TPCi or TPC Asia ordered them to do so, though?

Back in none other than 4Kids' dubbed Johto, 4Kids-TPCi dubbed AG/Hoenn & BF, and TPCi dubbed DP for reference (and I remember 4Kids even kept Takeshi's Paradise instrumentals from the Japanese Version in late Johto & the episode "Lights, Camerupt, Action" too)?
Amazing where we are today, amazing, just look...

well tbf it's a very brief moment, it is odd though but not the end of the world.
Seviper, Cacnea, and Dustox did not keep their original VA’s. They were originally dubbed by 4Kids.
