Pokémon in Canada: Difference between revisions

The [[Pokémon]] franchise first reached '''{{wp|Canada}}''' in late 1998 with the release of [[Pokémon Red and Blue Versions]] and airing of the {{pkmn|anime}} began at the same time. Canada is divided into English- and French-speaking regions (the latter consisting mostly of the province of {{wp|Quebec}}), with Pokémon being marketed accordingly. While the English adaptation of the franchise largely shares the same materials and translations as {{pmin|the United States}}, the {{wp|Quebec French}} adaptation of the franchise had a mix of its own French translations and the English translation during its early days (with a small amount of material from {{pmin|France}}), which was eventually phased out in favor of almost entirely importing European French material with a few exceptions such as the ''{{mov|Detective Pikachu}}'' film.
