* Happens in several episodes of ''[[Code Lyoko]]'' ("Marabounta", "Déjà Vu", "The Secret", "Kadic Bombshell"...), mostly for Phys. Ed. classes. Since this is set in France and not Japan, though, the swimsuits aren't regulated. Most of the girls are wearing one-pieces, however. Except Sissi.

* The Pool Episode in ''[[Codename Kids Next Door]]'' isn't exactly standard for this trope... since it involves fighting with [[Those Two Bad Guys|Those Two Bad Lifeguards]] and their [[Humongous Mecha]] chair. Par for the course for the series, otherwise.
