Pokémon Learning League was a web-based educational series that used characters from the Pokémon anime to teach students in the areas of science, math, language arts, and life skills. The site was aimed at American children in grades 3 to 6. The site was free when it was first set up in Fall 2006 but was later only viewable through a paid subscription service after January 1, 2007. As of August 1, 2008 the site does not take new subscribers, and now redirects to Pokémon.com.
It should be noted that there are many variations from the main anime canon, including the existence of the PokéPilot. Additionally, the fourth wall is often broken by the characters either asking for help or thanking the person doing the lesson.
Mission Guides
Mission Guides are characters created specifically for Pokémon Learning League to assist the student in four types of subject matter. As such, they don't appear in any media outside of Pokémon Learning League.
- Ada is the Mission Guide for Mathematics.
- Lex is the Mission Guide for Language Arts.
- Quinn is the Mission Guide for Life Skills.
- Siara is the Mission Guide for Science.
Lessons
Lessons in Pokémon Learning League are divided up into three parts.
Watch
In the Watch segments, students are introduced to one or more characters from the Pokémon anime who have a problem. They then turn to the PokéPilot (and thus, the Mission Guide for that particular content area) to help them solve their problem.
Try
In the Try segments, students follow a guided practice along with the characters from the Watch segment. The Try segment reinforces the lesson taught in Watch, often mirroring the order that the process was followed there.
Apply
In the Apply segments, students play a game on their own (with minimal interference from the Mission Guide or any character) and apply the skill or skills that they have been taught. The Apply segments often end in a short video that shows the anime characters solving their problem.
