-'''Cartoon Network''' is an cable network owned by {{wp|Time Warner}} that carries the [[Pokémon anime]] meta series. They started with [[Pokémon: Battle Frontier]] on of September 8th, 2006. They picked up the series after corporate sibling [[Kids' WB!]] cancelled the series after the [[Pokémon USA recasting controversy|voice cast change]] which involved [[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]] special.
+'''Toonami Jetstream''' is a {{wp|Streaming media|streaming video}} service run by [[Cartoon Network]] and [[Viz Media]] to provide anime and action cartoons 24 hours a day.  The service launched on July 17, 2006.  The service remained online even after its parent programming block, [[Toonami]], ended on September 20, 2008, and will remain online for the forseeable future.
-Previously, they had aired reruns of episodes from Pokémon's earlier seasons. As of July 2008, almost every series has aired on Cartoon Network.  They've also started airing Advanced Generation episodes (currently [[Pokémon Advanced]]) from 7-8 AM EST. On September 29, 2008, they began to reair [[Pokémon: Battle Frontier]] from 1-2 PM EST.
+The service is only available in the United States.  Other regions have their own version of Jetstream, though not with Pokémon included in the lineup.
-Cartoon Network also aired all of the [[Pokémon Chronicles]] episodes during the summer of 2006. Currently, the series does not air on the network.
+==Pokémon anime on Toonami Jetstream==
+<!-- Only include information relevant to Pokémon in this section. -->The third season of the {{g|anime}} debuted on the service on October 9, 2006 under the [[The Johto Journeys|Johto Journeys]] banner.  The first episode offered on the service was [[EP106|''The Pokémon Water War'']].  The last episode under this classification, [[EP157|''The Fortune Hunters'']], debuted on Jetstream on October 1, 2007.
-New dubbed episodes of [[Pokémon Diamond & Pearl: Battle Dimension]] can be seen on Saturday mornings at 9:00 AM {{wp|Eastern Time Zone|ET}}/{{wp|Pacific Time Zone|PT}} (8:00 AM {{wp|Central Time Zone (North America)|CT}}).
+{{g|Chronicles}} also debuted on Toonami Jetstream on October 9, 2006.  The first episode of the side series offered on the service was part 1 of ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]''.  The final episode, Pikachu's Winter Vacation:  ''[[PK02|Christmas Night]]''/''[[PK03|Kanga Games]]'', debuted on the service on March 5, 2007.
-During the Diamond and Pearl season, they often played the previous week's new episode at 9:00 AM {{wp|Eastern Time Zone|ET}}/{{wp|Pacific Time Zone|PT}} (8:00 AM {{wp|Central Time Zone (North America)|CT}}).  However, at the start of Pokémon DP Battle Dimension, {{an|wp:Blue Dragon|Blue Dragon}} took the 9:00 timeslot. Blue Dragon hasn't aired since ''[[DP061|Team Shocker!]]'', however, {{an|wp:The Secret Saturdays|Secret Saturdays}} has now taken the 9:00 timeslot, stopping the previous episode from airing. Starting with ''[[DP082|Cream of the Croagunk Crop!]]'', the show will air only at 9:00 am, wih {{wp|Star Wars: The Clone Wars (2008 TV series)|Star Wars: The Clone Wars}} taking the 9:30 am timeslot.
+The fourth season debuted on Toonami Jetstream on May 29, 2007 under the [[Johto League Champions]] banner.  [[EP158|''A Goldenrod Opportunity'']] was the first episode offered under that classification.  The last episode under this classification, [[EP209|''Machoke, Machoke Man!'']], debuted on Jetstream on May 27, 2008.
+The first season debuted on Toonami Jetstream on January 14, 2008 under the [[Pokémon: Indigo League|Pokémon]] banner as part of a special offering involving {{g|Snap}}.  [[EP055|''Pokémon Paparazzi'']] was the first episode offered under that classification.  It is currently unknown if this classification will see a regular progression.
+The fifth season debuted on Toonami Jetstream on June 16, 2008 under the [[Master Quest]] banner.  [[EP210|''Around the Whirlpool'']] was the first episode offered under that classification.
+The ninth season debuted on Toonami Jetstream on November 17, 2008 under the [[Pokémon: Battle Frontier|Battle Frontier]] banner.  [[AG146|''Fear Factor Phony'']] was the first episode offered under that classification.
+Toonami Jetstream releases episodes new to the service every Monday, unless a particular Monday is a United States holiday, in most cases the debut is on a different day (such as the following Tuesday or the preceding Friday).  Like some other shows on Toonami Jetstream, new Pokémon episodes in currently-running seasons debut every week and remain available on Toonami Jetstream for six weeks after they debut on the service.
+Toonami Jetstream also offered short previews of {{g|Ranger and the Temple of the Sea}}, [[DP002|''Two Degrees of Separation'']], and [[The Rise of Darkrai]] prior to their television debuts.
+To celebrate the release of Pokémon Snap on the Virtual Console, [[Pokémon.com]] have announced that episodes featuring [[Todd Snap]] will be offered for one week later in December.  That method was scrapped in favor of traditional weekly progression; his three Johto appearances appeared as part of the normal Johto League Champions progression, with his Kanto appearances appearing on January 14, 2008, January 22, 2008, and January 28, 2008.

+==Trivia==
+[[Image:Master Quest Jetstream.jpg|thumb|right|The Jetstream version of the [[Master Quest]] logo.]][[Image:Dawn Battle Frontier.jpg|thumb|right|{{an|Dawn}} in the [[Pokémon: Battle Frontier|Battle Frontier]]?]]
+<!-- Only include information relevant to Pokémon in this section. -->*Toonami Jetstream used the opening based on [[Pokérap GS]] for all Pokémon Chronicles episodes.  That was only done on the televisied airings with part 1 of [[The Legend of Thunder!]]; all other Pokémon Chronicles episodes used the {{g|Chronicles theme}} for their televised airings.
+*The first five episodes of Johto League Champions used the Johto Journeys opening on Jetstream, similar to the original [[Kids' WB!]] airings of the episodes.
+*The Todd version of [[Todd Snap]]'s Kanto episodes are the ones used on Toonami Jetstream.  This appears to go with the {{wp|Retroactive continuity|retcon}} of making Snap his surname when {{g|Snap}} was announced for the Virtual Console.
+*The [[Master Quest]] logo uses different colors on the Jetstream banner than in the show itself.
+*When viewing the [[Pokémon: Battle Frontier|Battle Frontier]] banner under the "Shows" tab, {{an|Dawn}} is depicted on the right side of the banner, despite not debuting until [[DP001|the first episode of the]] [[Pokémon: Diamond & Pearl|following arc]].
+===Errors===
+<!-- Only include information relevant to Pokémon in this section.  This is not a complete list. -->
+*[[EP055|''Pokémon Paparazzi'']] was mislabeled as being episode 10.  The actual episode 10 in [[Pokémon:  Indigo League|Indigo League]] is [[EP010|''Bulbasaur and the Hidden Village'']].  Subsequent Indigo League episodes also have wrong numbers attached.  This running error may be a result of Cartoon Network's recent tendency to air the first season's episodes in the order Kids WB showed them instead of their proper order.
+*[[EP196|''Control Freak!'']], listed as episode 39 of [[Johto League Champions]], was mistakenly given the title and description of the [[EP144|listed episode 39]] in [[The Johto Journeys|the previous arc]].  The scene selection showed images from the correct episode, and the correct episode played.
+*The above error was later repeated with [[EP223|''Throwing in the Noctowl'']], the listed episode 14 of [[Master Quest]].  It was mistakenly given the title and description of the [[H014|listed episode 14]] of [[Pokémon Chronicles]], but showed images from and played the correct episode.  The episode was also given an initial expiry time of only nine days instead of the usual six weeks; it was later reuploaded with the correct expiry time, but still with the wrong title and description.
+*[[EP214|''Mantine Overboard!'']] initially did not list the episode number in the [[Master Quest]] classification (it was supposed to be 5); this error was later fixed.
+*The above error was later repeated with [[AG146|''Fear Factor Phony!'']] not listing its episode number in the [[Pokémon: Battle Frontier|Battle Frontier]] classification (it was supposed to be 1).
+*The listed episode 6 of the [[Master Quest]] classification, [[EP215|''Octillery The Outcast!'']], was initially listed with a title of "<sc>Copy Needed</sc>"; this error was later fixed.
