The '''Pokémon Learning League''' was a web-based educational series that used the main characters from the [[Pokémon anime]] to teach students in the areas of science, math, language arts, and life skills. The site was aimed at American children in grades three to six. The site was free when it was first set up in the Fall of 2006 but was later only viewable through a paid subscription service after January 1, 2007. On August 1, 2008 the site stopped taking new subscribers, and it now redirects to [[Pokémon.com]]. | The '''Pokémon Learning League''' was a web-based educational series that used the main characters from the [[Pokémon anime]] to teach students in the areas of science, math, language arts, and life skills.
