Cartoon Network is a cable network owned by Time Warner that carries the Pokémon anime meta series. They started with Pokémon: Battle Frontier on September 8th, 2006. They picked up the series after corporate sibling Kids' WB! dropped the series in its efforts to focus more on series produced in-house, which has since been taken over by 4Kids Entertainment, the former producer of the anime series.
Previously, they had aired reruns of episodes from Pokémon's earlier seasons such as Master Quest. As of April 2010, almost every series has aired on Cartoon Network. They have also aired all of the Pokémon Chronicles episodes during the summer of 2006. Currently, the series does not air on the network.
New dubbed episodes of Pokémon Diamond & Pearl: Sinnoh League Victors can be seen on Saturday mornings at 8:00 AM ET/PT (7:00 AM CT). As of July 2010, it repeated Pokémon Diamond and Pearl: Battle Dimension and currently repeats Pokémon Diamond and Pearl: Galactic Battles. They both aired weekdays at 8:00 AM ET/PT. On February 12, 2011, they started airing the Pokémon Black and White series. Currently, their sibling network Boomerang airs the original series.
Cartoon Network tends to marginalize end credits, to the chagrin of viewers of the Pokémon movies, which contain an epilogue.
