Lana in the beginning of the segment

Poké Problem (Japanese: ポケもんだい) is a question-and-answer segment exclusive to the Japanese version of the Sun & Moon series, replacing Poké TV of the XY&Z arc of the XY series. As opposed to previous segments of this format, the Poké Problem is presented in two parts; the question at the very beginning of the episode, before the cold opening, and the answer at the very end, after the credits.

Introduced in SM003, each Poké Problem is hosted by a student or staff member of the Pokémon School. The question relates to a highlight or fact revealed in the episode itself. At the end of the episode, the host reveals the answer and reviews it. Like in Poké TV, sometimes an extra scene will play after the review.

Trivia

  • In SM003, all the provided choices are all electronics Rotom are known to inhabit.
  • The first airing of SM004 in Japan didn't include a Poké Problem as it aired as a one-hour special alongside SM003 and it only included the Poké Problem for SM003. Similarly, the first airing of SM007 in Japan didn't include a Poké Problem as it showed a trailer for M20. However, these segments were included in airings on other stations that aired the episode in delay and VOD services (Amazon Video, Netflix and Hulu).
  • Viewers could answer the Poké Problem with their remotes during the airing of SM003 and SM004, which aired as a one-hour special, to take part in a lottery of five Pokémon Z-Ring & Z-Crystal Special Sets.
