 Pokémon TV is available both in [[Pokémon.com|the official Pokémon website]] and as an app in a total of 13 languages: English ({{pmin|the United States|United States}} and {{pmin|the United Kingdom|United Kingdom}}), {{pmin|France|French}}, {{pmin|Germany|German}}, {{pmin|Italy|Italian}}, {{pmin|Spain|European Spanish}}, {{pmin|Latin America|Latin American Spanish}}, {{pmin|Denmark|Danish}}, {{pmin|the Netherlands|Dutch}}, {{pmin|Finland|Finnish}}, {{pmin|Norway|Norwegian}}, {{pmin|Brazil|Brazilian Portuguese}}, {{pmin|Russia}}n, and {{pmin|Sweden|Swedish}}.
 As the service is operated by The Pokémon Company International, it is region-locked so that is not available in Asian countries where [[The Pokémon Company]] retains distribution rights. In particular, it is not available in Japan, {{pmin|Greater China|Hong Kong}}, {{pmin|Vietnam}}, {{pmin|Thailand}}, {{pmin|South Asia|Nepal}}, {{pmin|South Asia|Bangladesh}}, {{pmin|Indonesia}}, Brunei, Cambodia, North Korea, {{pmin|South Korea}}, Samoa, {{pmin|Singapore}}, {{pmin|Malaysia}}, {{pmin|South Asia|India}}, Mongolia, Myanmar, {{pmin|Greater China|Macau}}, Laos, {{pmin|the Philippines}}, {{pmin|South Asia|Pakistan}}, {{pmin|South Asia|Afghanistan}}, {{pmin|South Asia|Sri Lanka}}, Papua New Guinea, {{pmin|Greater China|Mainland China}}, and {{pmin|Greater China|Taiwan}}. The Nintendo Switch version is currently unavailable in Russia and New Zealand but is due to be released in both.
-On January 8 2024, the app was removed from App Store, Google Play, Roku Channel Store, Amazon Appstore and Nintendo eShop. On March 28, 2024 The Pokémon TV app and website will end.
