Another year, another Pokemon movie. The Official Pokemon Facebook page have announced that Pokémon the Movie: Kyurem vs. The Sword of Justice will be airing on YTV, alongside the US Cartoon Network premiere on December 8th. The Official Pokemon website describes the film’s plot as:
Remember Monsuno, the US-Japan co-production that I highlighted a few years ago as a way to bring anime back to North American television? Well, a few months after its February 2012 Nicktoons US premiere (which led me to expect the show would either be picked up by Teletoon, or Nick Canada, not YTV) the show is now heading up North, according to YTV.com’s schedule that is. The series is set to premiere Saturday May 5 at 1:30PM EST in the block of programming I’ve unofficially dubbed the “Super Anime Lineup” featuring the likes of Beyblade Metal Masters, Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh! 5Ds, and Power Rangers Super Samurai.

This marathon already happened, and I forgot to make a post about it... whoops
This is another case of “I already knew this but I’ll hold off on writing a post on it” as schedule wizard Mohji pointed out in our forums, Zap2it listed the YTV premiere of Pokémon The Movie: Black – Victini and Reshiram. I wanted to wait it out until YTV posted their schedule after a a certain debacle. It was a good thing I waited, since it seems Zap2it listed the wrong version of that film to broadcast. They listed the version of the film that was broadcast on Cartoon Network in December, where as YTV.com’s schedule listing has it being the version of the film we were snubbed a theatrical release of. The film premieres this Saturday at 2PM EST, concluding the first broadcast of a retooled Super Anime Lineup. Read more
Joining the Yu-Gi-Oh! gang, Ash and Pikachu’s latest theatrical adventure unfortunately won’t be taking flight in Canada, despite the recently announced 2-day nationwide US event in December. I have confirmed with a Cinedigm representative that the showcases are indeed US-only for a variety or reasons. Pokemon fans are just going to have to bask in the Black & White YTV broadcast, and watch the latest film release on DVD. Read more
In a belated attempt to celebrate the release of Pokemon Black & White version for the Nintendo DS (which was released the day of this writing) YTV will be airing four new back-to-back episodes of Pokemon DP: Sinnoh League Victors instead of the Super Anime Lineup next Saturday, though this is the season before the storyline actually kicks into the Black & White storyline, but hey…
12:00pm – Pokemon: DP Sinnoh League Victors “With the Easiest of Grace” NEW!
12:30pm – Pokemon: DP Sinnoh League Victors “Dealing With a Fierce Double Ditto Drama” NEW!
1:00pm – Pokemon: DP Sinnoh League Victors “Last Call, First Round” NEW!
1:30pm – Pokemon: DP Sinnoh League Victors “Opposites Interact” NEW!
Are you a Beyblade fan who is severely depressed by the lack of episodes? Well, later this month YTV will be airing a marathon of Beyblade Metal Fusion. I’ll write an article when the broadcast nears.
UPDATE
Thanks to commentator AnimeAsh, it has been brought to my attention that YTV’s Pokemon antics won’t end with this four episode marathon, but rather will continue onwards to the YTV premiere broadcast of the thirteenth Pokemon theatrical feature, Zoroark: Master of Illusions. It should be noted that while Zap2it, and other online schedules are not displaying this broadcast, it is included in YTV.com’s March Newsletter to members.
Thanks to Mohji for pointing this out.
