Hungama TV has so far aired the first eight movies and the tenth and eleventh movies. Many scenes, including the opening and ending themes, are often skipped. Despite the fact that Hungama TV airs material provided by [[The Pokémon Company International|TPCi]] for the anime episodes, the Hindi dub for the first eight movies used footage from the Japanese version. Disney XD India also airs the Hungama dub of the Pokémon movies.
