Debut

The Alola TV Station is an anime-exclusive location in the Alola region. It first appeared in SM113. The Alola TV Station has been the main television production and broadcasting hub in the Alola region for the past 55 years.

Alola TV employs many people, from directors, camera operators, makeup artists to actors and actresses. Event hostess Anna and Director George Charino are amongst them. Some of its famous televised series include Alolan Detective Laki (Japanese: アローラ探偵ラキ Alola Detective Laki), Alola Pokémon Quiz, (Japanese: サンサン三人はアローラドリンキュン The Sparkling Trio is Alola DrinKyun) and (Japanese: 小さなコイキングのメロディ Melody of the Small Koiking).

The Alola TV facility has several film studios, rehearsal studios and is surrounded by large open spaces ideal for larger production sets.

During SM113, Ash and his classmates came to watch Sophocles compete in an episode of Alola Pokémon Quiz. He lost by one question to Kuwashi and was disappointed. Later, George Charino spotted Rotom and invited everyone to watch the next instalment of Melody of the Small Koiking being filmed. The series’ main star Koi-chan was having difficulties controlling its voice and eventually evolved into a rampaging Gyarados. Luckily, George, who was in the middle of preparing Lillie and the other girls to film an episode of The Sparkling Trio is Alola DrinKyun after the lead actresses became stranded in Sinnoh because of a blizzard, was able to settle the situation. George went on to incorporate Koi-chan into the The Sparkling Trio is Alola DrinKyun as the main villain Gyarados Devil against the heroes played by Lillie and the others.

Meanwhile Team Rocket, who were auditioning for the upcoming 55th year anniversary of Alola TV managed to land a gig. Jessie was not thrilled about the action role she received, and her teammates were also roped into the filming of the kaiju film. They later received a call back from Alola TV for more demanding roles, but the trio were hoping for speaking roles instead.
