Something is very wrong here. I think somehow the episode order got really screwed up in a couple of places. In episode 46, "Attack of the Prehistoric Pokemon", Ash's Charmeleon evolves into a Charizard, but then, in episode 66, "Snow Way Out", He uses Charmander to melt an ice cave in the snow. Does this confuse anyone else? Also, Jessie's Lickitung is mentioned in episode 49, "So Near Yet so Farfetch'd", but she doesn't catch it until episode 52, "Princess versus Princess". What is going on here? Anyone who has any idea of the correct episode order, I'd really appreciate if you helped me out! I have all of the first season downloaded and the episodes are in the same order as on this site but the order is obviously wrong! A little help please? Pikafanman

Yes, yes, we all should know about this. the order was screwed up because of Electric Soldier Porygon, (the episode that caused those seizures) Episodes 52 and 53 belong in between 47 and 48 as for "Holiday HiJynx" and "Snow way out," they belong right before episode 40!

Yes, that helps me out a lot, thanks. Maybe we should put a note of that on the page? {{subst:User:Pikafanman}} 10:38, 26 March 2008
It is on the seperate pages for those episodes. MoldyOrange 04:42, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
Correct me if I'm mistakin, but isn't there 82 episodes in season one?--MỸSTЄЯỸЊӘFF (TALK) 11:51, 26 October 2009 (UTC)
You're mistaken. You're probably mistaking an arc for a season, a mistake that's unfortunately becoming increasingly common. Season 1 runs EP001-EP051 and EP054-EP057 for a total of 55 episodes counting ones initially skipped; EP052 and EP053 were reordered to the start of season two in the dub. You can tell whether an Indigo League episode that wasn't inherently banned is from season 1 or season 2 by looking at what's at the end. Only season 1 episodes have the Pokérap at the end. If it has Pikachu's Jukebox, you're either watching EP018 that debuted incredibly late, or it's a season 2 episode.
Coincidentially, it's the other side of the episode that one can tell Orange Islands episodes between season 2 and season 3. If the theme runs a full TV-size length, it's season 2. If it's shortened to just the intro and chorus, it's season 3. An episode that was inherently presented as part of the Johto Journeys arc can tell whether it's an actual Johto Journeys season 3 episode or a season 4 episode that was later reclassified under the Johto League Champions arc; if the theme is at the top of the show, it's season 3, whereas if the theme comes after the first part of the episode, it's season 4.
Do recall that an arc and a season, despite increasingly-common belief, are not one and the same. The arc is what's dependent on the theme, not the season. Seasons are closer to a 52-episode-order definition, but actually more dependent on airdates (seasons start sometime between the August-October period) than clusters of episodes. As far as we've gotten, only the eighth arc spans exactly one whole season. --Shiningpikablu252 15:45, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

why doesnt all the pics load?

server issue?--Solid! 09:31, 5 December 2009 (UTC)

If there are some blue links appearing in the picture areas, it's because a standarized pic of that episode hasn't been uploaded. A standardized pic is one with a filename that matches the epicode, followed by a ".png" extension; capitalization matters. For example, a standardized pic for EP143 would have the filename EP143.png; do note that, as of when this comment was written, this is one of the episodes where the standarized pic doesn't yet exist.
If the picture area is completely black, then the picture probably just hasn't loaded yet. If the picture area has one of those boxes with an X in it, then the picture misloaded; you can try reloading it on Windows by right-clicking and selecting "Show Picture", and if that doesn't work, then it might be a problem with the picture itself. --Shiningpikablu252 12:55, 5 December 2009 (UTC)

Expandable Tables

With approaching 700 episodes, I think it would be appropriate to make each league table on this page expandable and collapsible so you don't have to scroll forever to get to the information that you want. - Vhayes1992 21:14, 25 June 2011 (UTC)

That's actually a good idea. :--SuperAipom7 (Questions?) 21:20, 25 June 2011 (UTC)
Technically, though, this is just a page that calls this, this, this, and this page, and lists every episode. People who want smaller lists can... go there. Only 13 mainspace pages even link here; most link to the series sublists. TTEchidna 04:47, 16 September 2011 (UTC)

Update

This article is incomplete and in need of some significant updating in regards to the newer seasons and episodes. Apologies if someone is already working on this, but thought I'd bring it up just in case. Landfish7 11:52, 21 March 2022 (UTC)

Disregard this, not sure what I thought was missing. I think I was thrown off by the Journeys arc being referred to as simply "Pocket Monsters" Landfish7 12:03, 21 March 2022 (UTC)
