In October 2015, Spanish publisher {{wp|Norma Editorial}} announced they would be publishing the entirety of the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga. Due to the length of the series (52 volumes at the time of announcing the license) and due to different story arcs often starting and ending partway through volumes, Norma Editorial has opted for an omnibus format, with 30 volumes expected so far. The volumes will have double numbering to accommodate fans who may wish to begin reading from a particular story arc. For example, the {{chap|Yellow}}, which will be published over two volumes, will be numbered as Yellow Volume 1 and Yellow Volume 2, and Volume 3 and Volume 4 of the series overall.

The Pokémon franchise first reached Spain in 1999 when the anime was dubbed into Iberian Spanish.

Pokémon video games

Spanish-language versions of Pokémon Red and Blue were sold in Spain on October 5, 1999. Subsequent Pokémon games have been available since then.

Pokémon anime

Spanish dub

The Iberian Spanish dub of the Pokémon anime is recorded and produced in Madrid, Spain and was previously licensed by entertainment company BRB Internacional. The series has been dubbed in five different dubbing studios. Originally, the series was dubbed in Telson, which dubbed the series from the first season until the eighth season and movies 4 and 5. After this, Telson went out of business, so the series was moved to Arait Multimedia, which recorded the ninth season and Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Team Go-Getters Out of the Gate!. Starting from the tenth season, the series moved to 103 Todd-AO, which dubbed the series until the sixteenth season, when the series was moved to Tecnison, S.A. until season seventeen. The dub of these seasons was produced by SDI Media Poland. In season 18, the series moved to SDI Media Spain.

Movies 1-3 and Mewtwo Returns were dubbed in Tecnison, S.A. and directed by José Luis Angulo. Dubbing of the Pokémon movies ceased for a while, but started again with Lucario and the Mystery of Mew and Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea, which were dubbed in Soundub. Movies 10-14 were dubbed in 103 Todd-AO and the dub was produced by SDI Media Poland. Movies 15-17 were dubbed in Tecnison, S.A. by SDI Media Poland, and starting from Hoopa and the Clash of Ages they're dubbed in SDI Media Spain.

The Iberian Spanish dub is based on the English dubs by 4Kids Entertainment and Pokémon USA, Inc., retaining their character names (Some exceptions are Gym Leaders, Frontier Brains, and game characters like in the games in this language). The anime has aired on both nationally-owned channels such as Telecinco, Clan TVE, all regional channels and on the Spanish branch of Jetix (now Disney XD).

In Spain, the anime currently airs on Boing. Recent and library content are available on Netflix, Movistar+, and Pokémon TV.

In October 2015, Spanish publisher Norma Editorial announced they would be publishing the entirety of the Pokémon Adventures manga. Due to the length of the series (52 volumes at the time of announcing the license) and due to different story arcs often starting and ending partway through volumes, Norma Editorial has opted for an omnibus format, with 30 volumes expected so far. The volumes will have double numbering to accommodate fans who may wish to begin reading from a particular story arc. For example, the Yellow arc, which will be published over two volumes, will be numbered as Yellow Volume 1 and Yellow Volume 2, and Volume 3 and Volume 4 of the series overall.

The first volume to be released was Pokémon Rojo, Verde y Azul volume 1 on October 29, 2015. For their first releases, Norma Editorial will be alternating between the Red, Green & Blue arc and the Black & White arc.

Pokémon Trading Card Game

Spanish-language cards for the Pokémon Trading Card Game were first available in Spain starting in 1999 with the Base Set expansion set. They were sold by the Devir company until 2007, with several expansions missing. Only Base Set, Fossil, Neo Genesis, EX Ruby and Sapphire and EX Unseen Forces were released in Spain prior to the Diamond & Pearl Series.

Afterwards, Panini sold the TCG cards starting with the Diamond & Pearl expansion set, again with several expansions missing. The Majestic Dawn, Rising Rivals and Supreme Victors expansions were never released in Spain.

Currently, Asmodee is selling the TCG since the HeartGold & SoulSilver expansion. Once again, Asmodee decided that some expansions were not worth releasing in Spain, with the Undaunted, Triumphant, Call of Legends, Dark Explorers, Plasma Blast, Legendary Treasures, Dragon Vault, and Double Crisis being absent. However, despite physical cards from these expansions not being printed, all of them were translated and can be found in Spanish in the Pokémon Trading Card Game Online app. From Roaring Skies on, all expansions have been released in Spain.

The most recent expansion set to be released in Spanish is Fuerzas Temporales on March 2024.

Spanish language cards are recognized as legal for Play! Pokémon official tournaments in the European Region, the Latin American Region and in the World Championships.

The Treecko, Torchic, Mudkip and Ralts Picture Book Half Decks were released exclusively in Spain.
