Most episodes of the series were simply the American broadcast version with an added dub track, and for certain early episodes, a list of key dub voice actors shown after the American credit roll. Starting with the TV2 broadcast of season 12, which had previously aired on Jetix, actual video edits were done to the episodes, with the English title replaced with a Norwegian one, a new "To be continued" message in Norwegian, and a new set of credits properly crediting the entire Norwegian dubbing staff.

When Pokémon first aired on TV2, the series was accused of marketing Pokémon merchandise. Since commercials and marketing towards children is illegal in Norway, per [[EP031|episode 30]], TV2 was forced to edit out ''[[Who's That Pokémon?]]'', in addition to the bonus clips at the end of some episodes, such as the [[Kanto Pokérap|Pokémon rap]] and ''[[Pikachu's Jukebox]]''. The ban was lifted after the anime came back from its hiatus with season 6, and some unedited versions of early episodes were also released on home video.
