Complete Collection
Complete Collections are a type of anime home video package that is released by VIZ Media for DVD Region 1. They include all episodes from the corresponding season, with the exception of episodes that have been removed from rotation.
Complete Collection DVDs have been released for seasons 1 to 16 and seasons 20 to 21 of Pokémon the Series. Season 21 is the only Complete Collection to also be released on Blu-ray; while season 1 (under the standard season definition) was released on Blu-ray, that release is not considered a Complete Collection.
The Pokémon the Series: Sun and Moon Complete Collections are not described as Complete Collections on the cases themselves, but are on VIZ Media's website. The Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl and Black & White Complete Collections are described on the cover as "The Complete Season", but otherwise have the same design as other Complete Collections. Despite these naming differences, both of those groups are considered to be part of the series on VIZ Media's website.
In Region 1 releases, the episodes are ordered and separated according to VIZ Media season (which correspond to opening themes), rather than by standard seasons (in the same way as on Pokémon.com).
