| <!--YTV refrains from airing new episodes until there is enough new episodes to be aired five days a week until the end of the season. If the channel airs the last episode of a season and there is not enough episodes released for the next season, YTV will repeat the current series in the timeslot in which that season was airing. If other timeslots are airing different seasons, they remain intact.-->

| ==History of Scheduling the Anime==
| |
| | |
| When the anime debuted on YTV, it was airing weekdays at 4:00 PM. When ''[[The Adventures in the Orange Islands]]'' debuted in the US, YTV continued to air ''Indigo League'' episodes until ''[[EP110|Wherefore Art Thou, Pokémon?]]'' aired on [[Kids' WB!]].
| |
| | |
| YTV began airing {{tt|new|to Canadians}} ''[[Pokémon: Diamond and Pearl]]'' episodes on Saturdays in August 2007. A 3:30 PM weekday timeslot starting with ''[[DP001|Following A Maiden's Voyage]]'' was added on April 7, 2008. These 3:30 PM episodes continued, and eventually surpassed the new ones that were coming on on Saturdays. Canada then got five {{tt|new|to Canadians}} episodes per week. The episode that made the weekday afternoon episodes pass the Saturday ones was ''[[DP034|Buizel Your Way out of This!]]''. The first season of the [[Diamond & Pearl series]] had finished its chronological airing on Tuesday, June 17, meaning that [[Pokémon Diamond & Pearl: Battle Dimension]] should have started on the next Wednesday or possibly Saturday. However, this did not happen, as YTV began rerunning season 10 from the beginning.
| |
| | |
| ''Pokémon Diamond & Pearl: Battle Dimension'' briefly appeared for three weeks, airing on Fridays at 8:00 AM starting November 7, 2008. At one point, YTV was constantly changing their schedule around from ''Battle Frontier'' and ''Diamond and Pearl'' at the times of 3:30 PM and 8:00 AM. On Monday, March 2, 2009, YTV began to air ''Battle Dimension'' regularly and only aired ''Pokémon: Diamond and Pearl'' episodes on Saturdays. On Wednesday, June 3, 2009, YTV aired the [[DP104|last episode]] of Pokémon Diamond & Pearl: Battle Dimension. On Saturday, October 10, 2009, YTV aired episodes of [[Pokémon Diamond & Pearl: Galactic Battles]]. On the same day, they aired [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time & Darkness]] at 12:00 PM, and also [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky - Beyond Time & Darkness]] at 12:30 PM (just one day after the US airing).<ref>[http://www.ytv.com/programming/shows/pokemon/index.asp Pokemon (Pokémon) - Anime on YTV - Pikachu and Ash's journey]</ref>

| | |
| ==Bionix On Demand==
| |
| In 2005, YTV launched an {{wp|Video on demand|on demand}} anime channel simply named ''YTV Anime On Demand''. The channel contained new and old programs, including series that do not air on the normal YTV. The Pokémon anime was also available on this service.

| ==Trivia==
| |
| * YTV has never [[Banned episodes|banned]] an episode of the Pokémon anime, except those banned in Japan.
| |
| * When YTV was chronologically airing reruns of ''Pokémon: Diamond and Pearl'' weekdays at 5:00 PM, while airing new episodes of the same season on Saturdays, the same station ID played before the episode started.<ref>Watch it here: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yoirYnZSjbo YTV ID - Messy (2008)]</ref>
