the Cork Transport Workers' Union took possession of the Harbour Board's offices and assumed complete control of the local port, forming a workers' soviet until negotiations could be resolved.
The Cork Harbour Strike was a labor dispute that lasted from September 2nd to September 7th, 1921. It was the result of the refusal of the Cork Harbor Board to increase the wages of its workers to a minimum of 70s a week.
On September 6th, 1921, the Cork Transport Workers' Union took possession of the Harbour Board's offices and assumed complete control of the port.
According to the New York Times, "when the strikers took possession of the Harbour Board offices, they hoisted a red flag as a token of Soviet control and the strikers' leaders announced their intention of collecting dues from shipping agents and using them to pay members of the union."
The rebellion was short-lived, however, as negotiations between the Harbour Board and the strikers were reopened soon after, which came to a successful resolution. The revolt was not well-taken in the press.
The Irish Times wrote "To-day Irish Labour is permeated with a spirit of revolt against all the principles and conventions of ordered society. The country's lawless state in recent months is partly responsible for this sinister development, and the wild teachings of the Russian Revolution have fallen on willing ears."

Found this OG Pokemon fansite that lists the exact music cues (including the CD and track they're sourced from, when available) used in Pokemon episodes and lets you listen to them right there in the browser. Here's the very first episode; I've only spot-checked, but it seems like they have coverage all the way to the current episode which is wild considering there are over 1300 fucking episodes. Incredible labor of love.
edit: I completely missed that, due to this meticulous record keeping, you can go to their music database and see every single instance that a song was used in the anime. So for example, by looking at the page for the dub-original album 2.B.A. Master, I now know that Misty's Song (the ultimate PokΓ©Shipper fodder) was played as an instrumental version in a single episode of the anime: exactly 16 minutes into the 16th episode of Gold and Silver.
