This is a list of episodes in Pokémon: Advanced Battle, the eighth season of the Pokémon animated series (ポケットモンスター Poketto Monsutā, Pocket Monsters), covering the continuing adventures of series protagonist Ash Ketchum in Hoenn.
Contents |
The division between seasons of Pokémon is based on the openings of each episode, and may not reflect the actual production season. The English episode numbers are based on their first airing in the United States either in syndication, on the WB Television Network or on Cartoon Network. (Other English-speaking nations largely followed either this order or the Japanese order.) Subsequent airings of the English version follow the original Japanese order, except in the case of episodes which are no longer shown in English.
This season aired first-run episodes in Japan from September 9, 2004, to September 29, 2005. In the United States, it aired from September 17, 2005 to July 8, 2006. It aired in the United States as part of the 2005-2006 Kids' WB! Saturday morning line-up. This is the last season of Pokémon dubbed into English by 4Kids Entertainment as well as the last season to air on Kids WB and, as such, the last season dubbed by the original voice cast.
In the Japanese version, the episode "The Scheme Team" was the last performance of the late voice actor Hirotaka Suzuoki as Giovanni in the Pokémon series, before his death one year later. In the episode "Once in a Mawile", the theme opening changes a little. This is the most popular season behind the first season and fifth season.

The episode was originally set to air in Japan on November 4, 2004, but was skipped due to the episode's similarities to the Chūetsu earthquake on October 23, 2004. The episode was later postponed, and then discontinued. While most of the other episodes were either not dubbed for English-language release or taken out of English-language syndication rotations, this episode of Pocket Monsters Advanced Generation was the first episode of the anime to be banned inside Japan prior to its first scheduled airing. the plot however involves Ash and friends meeting a trainer with a Barboach and many whiscash, and a certain problem regarding said Pokémon which is resolved thanks to Team Rocket's latest plot, which involves rubber suits, considering that barboach are part electric. Team Rocket gets defeated, and Ash and friends part ways with the trainer. The episode didn't even end up as a DVD exclusive. |
