In the Pocket Monsters Best Wishes! episode "Meloetta and the Undersea Temple!" elements from the skipped Plasma-Dan two-parter were recycled for the scene where the Reflecting Mirror is revealed. While not everything between the two is identical - the backgrounds have all been redone, there's been some recoloring, some minor details have been tweaked - the two are close enough to let us know that both versions come from the same base.

Images from "The Rocket-Dan vs. The Plasma-Dan," as taken from this preview, are on left, while images from "Meloetta and the Undersea Temple!" are on the right.

"The Rocket-Dan vs. The Plasma-Dan" "Meloetta and the Undersea Temple!"
As you can see, all the lines in the Meloetta episode were changed from blue to orange.
Some of the "cracks" (or whatever you want to call them) were added / removed as well.
"The Rocket-Dan vs. The Plasma-Dan" "Meloetta and the Undersea Temple!"
The textures on the actual stone here are all identical.
"The Rocket-Dan vs. The Plasma-Dan" "Meloetta and the Undersea Temple!"
Again, blue to orange and lines added / taken away, but otherwise the CG animation here is identical.
"The Rocket-Dan vs. The Plasma-Dan" "Meloetta and the Undersea Temple!"
Parts of the wall were recolored and the camera was moved over slightly so we can see more of the background in the Meloetta episode.
"The Rocket-Dan vs. The Plasma-Dan" "Meloetta and the Undersea Temple!"
This isn't nearly as close as the others, but we can see that the whole motif of "the item Sakaki's after rising up on a pillar" is the same in both episodes.
"The Rocket-Dan vs. The Plasma-Dan" "Meloetta and the Undersea Temple!"
Again, not really recycled animation per se, but the general idea behind the two is the same.
