For unknown reasons, Disney XD wrapped up both the seasons together in just one week, skipping ''[[AG192|Home is Where the Start Is!]]'' which was aired later during reruns. The tenth season had a complete cast change comprising of completely different voice actors in the Hindi version while the Tamil and Telugu versions continued using their old cast. Beginning on January 20, 2019, Disney XD was rebranded as Marvel HQ in India, although the channel continues to air the Pokémon anime. From May 13, 2019 to May 24, 2019, Marvel HQ aired episodes from the eleventh season [[S11|Pokémon DP: Battle Dimension]] until ''[[DP085|Fighting Fear with Fear]]'', from where they used their old voice actors in the Hindi dub. Starting from this season, the channel stopped using the red logo for Pokémon and now uses the original yellow logo. The season re-aired on Hungama TV from August 10, 2019 to August 30, 2019, marking the return of the anime on the channel since 2016, and completed the initial run of the season.
