The anime series did not continuously air until December 26, 2004, when '''{{wp|Indosiar}}''' took over and began their first broadcast from the episode around [[Pokémon: The Johto Journeys|the beginning of the Johto saga]] on Sundays from 07:30-08:00 WIB (UTC+7). Indosiar were using mostly the script and localization from Japanese as the main dub. Thus, the Indonesian dub name Ali was left, retained his Japanese name, [[Ash Ketchum|Satoshi]]. Unfortunately, the inconsistency began when the dub were using the mixture between the English and Japanese names for Pokémon and other things in some episodes cases, though this was not the case for the notable main characters; Satoshi, {{an|Misty|Kasumi}}, {{an|Brock|Takeshi}}, [[Jessie|Musashi]], [[James|Kojiro]], [[Meowth (Team Rocket)|Nyasu]] ({{p|Meowth}} in English). These were the most controversial for the Indonesian fans. Despite this, many fans still support this positive effort for retaining the main character's Japanese names.

It is known that several episodes from [[Pokémon: Johto League Champions|the fourth season]] were airing for the second time before the airing of [[Pokémon: Master Quest|the fifth season]].
 
After [[Pokémon: Master Quest|the last season]] of the {{series|original}} was finished, Indosiar continuously aired [[AG001|the first episode]] of the {{series|Advanced Generation}} ('''Pokémon AG''') from April 27, 2008. Since this series, almost of English localizations were used, with exception of previous notable characters. This made the new main characters, {{an|May}} and [[Max]], were named in their English name instead of Japanese name. However, in some episodes aired in the middle of 2009, almost of Japanese localization were used instead, due to the error.
 
Special [[side story episodes]] such as [[Pokémon Chronicles]], as well as some [[Pikachu shorts]] were aired between the Advanced Generation series. Two Pikachu shorts aired in {{wp|All Nippon Airways|ANA flights}}, ''[[PK13|Pikachu's Summer Festival]]'' and ''[[PK15|Pikachu's Ghost Carnival]]'', premiered on July 13 and 20, 2008 and were aired once again in 2010. ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]'', another part of special series, was also aired on November 16 and 23, 2008. The series had ever temporary started in one hour—two episodes since January 2009 until several months, after the {{pkmn|movie}} marathon were finished. ''[[Mewtwo Returns]]'' also known had premiered on January 3, 2010 at 06:30-08:00 before the usual Pokémon series.


On February 7, 2010, Indosiar skipped half of Advanced Generation from not-yet-aired episodes of [[Pokémon: Advanced Battle|eighth season]] until the end of the [[Pokémon: Battle Frontier|Battle Frontier saga]], and started airing the [[DP001|first episode]] of the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}} ('''Pokémon D&P'''). This issue seems to be a response to fans who gave request to Indosiar to broadcast the recent saga immediately.

This series had ever temporary started in one hour (two episodes) since January 2009 until several months, after the {{pkmn|movie}} marathon were finished.


In the first few episode, Ash's longtime voice actor was replaced temporary. The female companion {{an|Dawn}}, though her English name was used constantly, sometimes referred as Hikari, her Japanese name. After a few episodes, the dub began to using the English version as localization (mostly for Pokémon names, [[characters of the day]], locations, etc.) and the Japanese script as the main translation. The previous main characters were still retained in Japanese, possibly to avoid confusion for the audience.

===Special and OVA===
Special [[side story episodes]] such as [[Pokémon Chronicles]], as well as some [[Pikachu shorts]] were aired between {{series|AG}}. Two Pikachu shorts for {{wp|All Nippon Airways|ANA flights}}, ''[[PK13|Pikachu's Summer Festival]]'' and ''[[PK15|Pikachu's Ghost Carnival]]'', both premiered on July 13 and 20, 2008, respectively, and both were aired once again in 2010. ''[[The Legend of Thunder!|Raikou - Legend of Thunder]]'' was premiered in two parts on November 16 and 23, 2008. ''[[Mewtwo Returns]]'' also known had premiered on January 3, 2010 at 06:30-08:00 {{wp|Time in Indonesia|WIB}} before the usual series.
===Dub and localization===
The Indonesian dub mainly based on the {{wp|Japanese}} version. The first version on SCTV subtitled [[Aim to Be a Pokémon Master|the first Japanese opening]] and [[One Hundred Fifty-One|ending themes]]. The most known renamed {{player|main character}} [[Ash Ketchum]], was given the dub name '''Ali''', while the rest of them are based on their English name.
On Indosiar, the dub name Ali was left while his Japanese name, [[Ash Ketchum|Satoshi]] was used instead. Unfortunately, the inconsistency began when the dub were using the mixture between the English and Japanese names for Pokémon and other things in some episodes cases, though this was not the case for the notable main characters; Satoshi, {{an|Misty|Kasumi}}, {{an|Brock|Takeshi}}, [[Jessie|Musashi]], [[James|Kojiro]], [[Meowth (Team Rocket)|Nyasu]]. However, the main characters that were introduced later such as {{an|May}}, [[Max]], and {{an|Dawn}} were named in their English name instead of Japanese name. Since {{series|AG}}, the Pokémon voices were also dubbed, notably including [[Ash's Pikachu]]. These were probably the most controversial for the fans.
After a certain episode from {{series|DP}}, the dub began to using the English version as localization (mostly for Pokémon names, [[characters of the day]], locations, etc.) and the Japanese script as the main translation, though sometimes there was a minor error occured. The previous main characters were still retained in Japanese, possibly to avoid confusion for the audience.
====Cast and crew====
When Pokémon arrived on Indosiar, the dubbing process was worked at its own in-house dubbing studio. After the studio was disbanded around 2009, the progress was moved to the current location, '''[http://www.yellowpages.co.id/directory/reka-citra-suara-studio Studio RCS]''' ('''Reka Citra Suara''').
'''{{wp|Ahmad Zulkifli Lubis}}''', also known as '''Iphie Lubis''', is notably one of the original voice actors of Pokémon since the first dub, who currently voiced the main role [[Ash Ketchum]]. His notable roles in other anime series are {{wp|Conan Edogawa}} from {{wp|Detective Conan}}, Keroro from {{wp|Keroro Gunsō}}, and Natsu Dragneel from {{wp|Fairy Tail}}.
