This is a list of episodes of [[Pokémon Chronicles]], a collection of side-story episodes which do not focus on [[Ash Ketchum]]. These typically were aired in Japan as [[Weekly Pokémon Broadcasting Station]] episodes, though several [[Pikachu short]]s made their way to the rest of the world in this manner. These are arguably the parts of the Pokémon anime that went undubbed for the longest.

Blurb

While Ash Ketchum continues on his quest to become the best, many others will experience their own unique journey through the Pokémon world—researchers, professors, Gym Leaders, Team Rocket members, Trainers, and even Pokémon. Some are familiar faces and others are strangers at first, but what they all have in common is a love of adventure—especially when it involves Pokémon!
