Logo

Netflix is an Internet-based on-demand streaming service. The service has episodes and television movies without television network logos or advertisements. Netflix is available worldwide except in Crimea, China, Syria and North Korea.

Availability per country

Worldwide

The available audio track and subtitles differ per country but all countries have access to English audio and subtitles. The United States has English and Spanish available.

Only in Aruba, Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba, Curaçao, the Netherlands and Sint Maarten

Available in Dutch and English.

Genesect and the Legend Awakened keeps its original ending theme, unlike the Cartoon Network and DVD releases, which replace it.

United States

Netflix requires a monthly subscription fee of $7.99 ($8.99 for HD). The anime has been available on Netflix since March 1, 2014.[1] The seasons are based on the season broadcasts in the dub. For example, Pokémon: Indigo League was split up into two seasons. The Indigo League episodes had the 1998 commercial bumpers where Brock says "We'll be back after these messages," and then after the advertisement when he says "And now, back to our show." However, due to Netflix not having advertisements during streaming, these bumpers served no purpose. The bumpers have since been removed from Netflix.

When Indigo League first became available for streaming, Netflix only got the first 52 episodes as they were aired in the US first season order.[2] Netflix added Season 2 of the Indigo League episodes during Summer 2014, which contained 23 Pokémon: Adventures in the Orange Islands episodes as a bonus since those are a part of US season 2, although the title Pokémon: Indigo League still remains even though Adventures in the Orange Islands is not a part of Indigo League.[3]

Since Netflix in the United States uses the English dub versions, EP035 and EP038 are not included. Even though the banned episodes Beauty and the Beach, Holiday Hi-Jynx, Stage Fight!, and The Mandarin Island Miss Match were dubbed, they are banned on Netflix too.

Content available

Episode seasons

Pokémon: Indigo League and Pokémon: XY both have English and Latin American Spanish audio tracks and closed captioning.

Movies

All movies have English and Spanish audio tracks and closed captioning.

Netflix became available to Australia and New Zealand in March 2015. Australia and New Zealand have access to the same Pokémon content as subscribers in the United States and Canada, however the audio and closed captions are only available in English.

Brazil

In Brazil, Netflix subscriptions cost R$19,90 monthly. The content is available for streaming in Brazilian Portuguese. It is also possible to watch the episodes and movies with English, French, Dutch, or Spanish audio, as well as with English, French, or Dutch subtitles. No Portuguese or Spanish subtitles are available.

Pokémon: Preto e Branco was added on March 1, 2014 along with the two versions of the fourteenth Pokémon movie. Later that year, on June 1, the fifteenth season and its corresponding movie were also made available. Pokémon Preto e Branco: Aventuras em Unova e Mais Além and Pokémon O Filme: Genesect e a Lenda Revelada were added on March 15, 2015.

The second semester of 2015 saw the addition of Pokémon: Liga Índigo and Pokémon: Aventuras nas Ilhas Laranjas on September 1. The site was updated again on February 15, 2016 to include the first season of the XY series and its corresponding movie. However, one day later, all of the Best Wishes series seasons and movies were removed.

Canada

In Canada, Netflix subscriptions cost $7.99CAD monthly. Currently, all content is available for streaming with English audio and subtitles or French audio and subtitles. The French audio and subtitles are from the European French version.

When Pokémon initially debuted on Netflix in March 2014, episodes of Pokémon: Indigo League and Pokémon: Black & White were available to subscribers, as well as the movies Pokémon the Movie: Black—Victini and Reshiram and Pokémon the Movie: White—Victini and Zekrom. The episodes of Indigo League initially available were from the first broadcast season, which included the first 52 dubbed episodes. The second broadcast season, containing the end of Indigo League and the beginning of Adventures in the Orange Islands was added later. Kyurem vs. The Sword of Justice and Genesect and the Legend Awakened were formerly available as well, but have since been removed.

As of April 2016, Pokémon content available to Canadian subscribers includes the first 52 episodes of Indigo League (corresponding to the first broadcast season; the second season has been removed), all 48 episodes of Pokémon the Series: XY (titled as "Pokémon: XY") and the movie Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction.

Trivia

  • The closed captioning for the first season of Pokémon: Indigo League is in all caps and, until Wake Up Snorlax!, omits the e-acute on Pokémon. It also misspells "Teach Pokémon to understand" in Pokémon Theme as "EACH POKÉMON TO UNDERSTAND". The closed captioning is changed to sentence case for season two and, as of Lights, Camera, Quack-tion, the Pokémon Theme lyric is correctly spelled. Also, the font for the closed captioning in both seasons of Pokémon: Indigo League, as well as the first two seasons and movies of Pokémon: Black & White is in Courier, while the third season and movie opt for a sans-serif font.
    • When the title cards are displayed for Indigo League, the text isn't repeated on the closed captioning. For the first two seasons of Black & White, it is. For season three of Black & White, it displays "[narrator reads text on screen]".
  • The Latin American captions for the title cards read "[narrator] Hoy presentamos: [episode title]" for seasons 1-3, unlike the English captioning.
