The second season had also big audience, but was not as successful as the first. This was due to the broadcast of the ''{{wp|Digimon}}'' series on a rival channel of Record, {{wp|Rede Globo}}, in the same time slot. Eventually, Rede Record acquired seasons [[Pokémon: The Johto Journeys|three]] and [[Pokémon: Johto League Champions|four]] as well. Around this time, in 2002, the success of Pokémon on Rede Record led another network, {{wp|Sistema Brasileiro de Televisão}}, to buy the rights to the first three movies in partnership with {{wp|Warner Brothers}}, making the films a well-known part of SBT's film rotation. | The second season had also big audience, but was not as successful as the first.

Since Rede Record had "spent" its episodes in a short period of time, it started to reair episodes frequently, a fact which lowered its overall audience ratings. Because of this, '''Rede Globo''' , which had the current logo as of 2008, purchased the rights to [[Pokémon: Master Quest|season five]] in {{wp|2005}}. Pokémon was so successful in the mornings on Globo that it also acquired the [[Pokémon: Advanced|sixth]] and [[Pokémon: Advanced Challenge|seventh]] [[season]]s. When they too ran out of new episodes, Globo reran them a few times and eventually took ''Pokémon'' out of its morning schedule. | Since Rede Record had "spent" its episodes in a short period of time, it started to reair episodes frequently, a fact which lowered its overall audience ratings.

In 2008, '''RedeTV!''' , formally Rede Manchete, needed a temporary cartoon to fill a space which would be taken by a new show, and acquired the first season to do so. However, Pokémon was so successful that RedeTV! acquired other seasons to air at night on the channel at {{tt|18:00|6pm}}. Currently, Pokémon is on the animation block ''TV Kids'', at almost the same hour. In 2009, RedeTV! was the first to air [[Pokémon Diamond & Pearl: Battle Dimension|season eleven]], even before [[Cartoon Network]], which usually is the first to air new episodes. | In 2008, '''RedeTV!''', formally Rede Manchete, needed a temporary cartoon to fill a space which would be taken by a new show, and acquired the first season to do so.
