S04
Pokémon: Johto League Champions is the name of the fourth season of the Pokémon anime. The 52-episode season showcases the adventures of Ash, Misty, Brock, and briefly Todd in the Johto region, from Goldenrod City up to Cianwood City.
It originally aired as part of the 2001-2002 Kids' WB! Saturday morning line-up. The season began with A Goldenrod Opportunity, which originally aired on August 18, 2001, and ended with Machoke, Machoke Man, which originally aired on September 7, 2002.
Champions is the second of three seasons that take place in the Johto region. It is preceded by The Johto Journeys and proceeded by Master Quest. It should be noted that the concept of seasons does not exist in Japan, as the anime is continually produced there. Johto League Champions is not considered different from any other season of the original series in Japan.
