Pokémon started airing in 2000. Only first 54 episodes of the [[S01|first season]] aired in Iceland. This was largely due to the lack of popularity of the anime in Iceland and it is unknown if reruns of the aired episodes still happen in the country. This dub has been known as a “lost dub” because none of the episodes and almost none of the movies have been released outside of Iceland (due to unknown reasons.)


In Iceland, the anime is available on [[Netflix]].
