The French dub of the [[Pokémon anime]] has been recorded and produced by two different companies. '''Studio La Dame Blanche''' recorded the [[original series]] and ''[[Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire]]'', while ''[[Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl]]'' is currently recorded and produced by '''Sunstudio'''. The French dub is based on the English dub by [[4Kids Entertainment]] and [[The Pokémon Company International]]. Like the Pokémon species names, most characters in the anime were renamed in the French dub. However, a modified version of the dub up to ''[[S05|Master Quest]]'' was recorded by the same cast for export to French {{pmin|Canada}}, using English character and Pokémon names.
