Pokémon TV Reviews

by Wushock_1982

PokémonTV is missing some common video app features. There is no way to know what you have watched. There is a continue watching thumbnail but it never updates. It shows the first episode I ever watched and has never changed. Your current progress is not kept if you stop watching in the middle of an episode. I noticed one episode did have what appeared as a progress bar. However, after tapping the video to continue the episode started over. I would also suggest adding an auto play feature that starts the next episode. Every time an episode ends I have to remember the title that I last watched so when I come back I can continue watching a new episode. It might have been a few days since watching and I have to hunt down through episodes tapping and watching a little then moving forward till I find a new episode. Also skip intro button would be nice. Yes I understand PokémonTV is free so I shouldn’t complain. These are merely suggestions not an angry app user on a rant.

Ok yes I love Pokémon so so much but PokémonTV is not the best cus they don’t have all the seasons of the series like they made some go away to bring more in and like they got rid of gold and silver and then got it back but got rid of diamond and Pearl and then then they don’t have all of diamond and pearl like come on! But thats just my review here is just some advice for Pokémon the creators and stuff ok so I think that on the behalf of some girls and boys that love Pokémon and watched XY that Serena needs a comeback she need to be seen once more and maybe have her stick around maybe like she could like ash could be going to a Pokémon performance and spot her on the stage and Serena spots him back and that ruins her performance and now video games once and if you make a new XY game make a option to be a Pokémon performer and try to be Kalos queen and make it like sword and shield not stubby ones and maybe make the queen Serena the queen you have to fight in the end and just bring her back is the message I’m trying to send and if you ever read this you don’t need to take it and use it all people want is Serena make her stick around or don’t but the video game advice don’t make them stubs and maybe make a choice to be kalos queen in the start cuz if you listened to it I think it would be big idk but maybe it would thank you for reading if you do but I think it would be good to keep it going on for longer if you brought her back.

PokémonTV is very good but why get rid of the other seasons. PokémonTV should have every Pokémon season and now there is just Pokémon sun and moon seasons 1 2 and 3 but where is the 4th season also why would they take out Pokémon black and white and Diamond and pearl seasons two also why take out Pokémon XY seasons then they add one season of gold and silver and now one the most loved series Pokémon the beginning now there is only two seasons. I am very mad about this change 😡😡😡.
Here is a tip Pokemon if add just a season of something add all the seasons people watch one season and there more seasons that they need to watch more about the series to make sense for the next series. It is like watch one season of black and white and there is no other season so you move on to the next series and
then it is like what this does not make sense. Because there are more seasons that you half to watch before a new series!

I rambled a little but this could be helpful anyways. I love PokémonTV and it is a really good wag to watch all the pokemon shows really easily. There is only one major flaw that i can think of, the fact that there is a rotation of shows instead of just all of them. I am trying to watch the entire show from indigo to the latest version of sun and moon and i have been keeping up with the new episodes of sword and shield. I am stuck having finished Indigo but i cant watch Johto since it is not in rotation for me, the only thing that i can think of to improve PokémonTV and fix this issue is by deleting the rotation all together and just having every show at all times so that anybody can watch anything at anytime. The closest thing i have to Johto is black and white which is a slight issue if you are trying to watch every episode of evry anime. The only pokemon i have seen has been on netflix so the only anime i have seen is indigo black and white, xy, xyz, and sun and moon which is slightly sad when you think about it. I hope somebody can fill me in on if there is an issue or if it just hasnt been implemented or coded or whatever. Thank you for your time and i hope thus review helped anyone who reads this.

Now, don’t get me wrong, I am absolutely surprised and overjoyed that something like this has been able to let us watch Pokémon episodes for free for quite some years, especially now when you’re able to choose episodes from certain seasons which is way better than than choosing a handful of episodes from each seasons that rotate every now and then. But the problem is that we can only watch seasons 1-4, Indigo League and only a part of Gold and Silver, and the newest seasons 20-22. It was amazing being able to choose certain episodes from all the seasons and though the new system is better, the new system would be even greater if all the seasons were in PokémonTV seeing as that was the case before. It would be amazing if we could see the seasons based on Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, Black and White, Diamond and Pearl, and X and Y. But other than that, everything else is perfect! I will give PokémonTV a 4 star due to only being able to watch the certain seasons previously mentioned, and I will change it to a 5 star if the previously mentioned problem is fixed. Other than that this is overall pretty great if you’re trying to watch Pokémon.

It's a great app really, however there are a couple of problems when starting up an episode. For some reason it may automatically play the next episode without telling me after the 1st 10 seconds of the one I picked. It may also just freeze after the 1st 10 seconds as well. I have tried refreshing PokémonTV but it doesn't work. The only possibility that will fix it for me was to download it. However sometimes it may also take me directly to what is shown after the episode, the next episode and recommended episodes.

The episode updates seem to be pretty slow as well as we only get one episode of sun and moon on Fridays and a small batch of the others on Friday too. Please take this in consideration and possibly fix a couple of these things?

Thanks in Advance.

I’ve had PokémonTV for a couple years now and I occasionally tune into see what’s new. I haven’t had much issues until now.
Recently I’ve been wanting to catch up on some episodes and everyday I open PokémonTV , it’s been requiring me to login every single time. It’s a bit annoying having to log in every time I open it.
Another thing I noticed was when I was watching the Generations and Origins shorts, I’ve been getting a 30 second pop up preview of the next episode that I cannot close out. This needs to be fixed, there should be a way to minimize that preview. I still would like to finish watching my current video without having half of it blocked.
Lastly, every single other app I have tilts my screen to the left when I maximize the screen. Yet PokémonTV forces my screen to turn right... I could get used to it but I would like there to be extra settings where I can change my default rotate settings, not having the 30 second mandatory preview, and keeping me signed in until I choose to logout.

I am a huge Pokémon fan and I am sooooooo Thankful for having PokémonTV but you don’t have many shows like yeah that shows that you can’t see or that are hard to find but it’s there or show star easy to find like in other places like on Netflix and some of the shows like Pokémon galactic battle where it starts you I believe in like the middle of the show like the first episode already has ash having more than three Pokémon and we don’t get to see how he finds them but I do like it and if you like Pokémon I definitely recommend PokémonTV also there are like special shows they could watch that don’t star ash. but yes there are tons of shows to watch just another lot for like a Pokémon show app that you see shows but it does it definitely has shows that I have never seen before so thank you have a made PokémonTV.I love it

by Gamewolf378

So, I’ve been using this for about a week, and I’ve already noticed a few thing you should change. First, the rotations. I’m trying to watch the episodes in order, but I can’t watch it ever because my family hates it so I need to watch... *drumroll* 40 EPISODES! By the 10th! How in the world will I do that?! That brings me to my next issue. Every other day, it won’t work on my tv. It says that something has changed in my account and that I need to log back in. Now, before you go all like “oh idiot you logged in wrong, duh” I did this just fine on my iPad. I even checked my log-in to see if I typed it in right, but it says a log-in error has occurred. Aside from these issues, I’d say it’s great that I can even watch a few episodes of a series that I love. Thank you for your time, Pokémon company, and please consider what I am saying.

I have been a Pokémon fan for as long as I can remember. But due to my resources I wasn’t able to watch many episodes of my beloved Pokémon shows. I could only watch Pokémon on Netflix and it is quite bad if I do say so myself, mostly because of all the waiting between Pokémon seasons. PokémonTV allows me to watch the gang practically any time that I want. Though it does take up a bit of storage on the phone ( especially if you are like me and have downloaded all the episodes possible ), but it is all worth it to a Pokémon fan. Thanks to PokémonTV I can watch my favorite show and I recommend it to everyone. Now, if you excuse me it’s time for me to Blast off! Or in the new adventures (Sun & Moon) run off with my Bearwear!

Ok so just to get this out of the way, PokémonTV is GREAT very good for watching long lost Pokémon episodes seeing as CN decided they wanted to give Disney Pokémon so now Boomerang can’t show us the good and olden Pokémon episodes.. but back to the point of writing this. I don’t like the fact that you only get a limited amount of episodes every WEEK and there’s no way of going back and watching some episodes you happened to miss during the week! And as we all know, Most Pokémon episodes are VERY important to watch just so you can understand the plot better! So if you miss an episode you have to wait for the entire SEASON to play out just so it could reset from episode one and after that you need to WAIT for it to get back to where you were! Which depending where you were, it will take a few MONTHS to do so, PokémonTV would be a lot better if it were set up like Netflix where you can watch every episode any time and any Place without having to rush yourself in watching episodes just so you don’t miss any... so maybe in the future you CAN set it up like Netflix in a way and that would help A LOT.

Look I really love PokémonTV and it is amazing how you can watch shows from a couple of seasons. I liked how I got to watch the shows on here before Netflix because I could watch them sooner. I really don’t like how PokémonTV is set up and it is harder to find that one show so why don’t you set up like Netflix. Also you don’t have all the shows on there and I have to resort to watch it on a Pokémon website witch I don’t have acces when I go on a trip. And the site isn’t the site to PokémonTV but a completely different site that has every Pokémon show and movie out there. So there is XYZ and Sun and Moon, they also have movies. Please fix this and update PokémonTV , I don’t want to go to a website instead of you.

That is it for now

I love it, it has all the old and latest episodes, and it does update every now and then but one problem, I noticed when I used it on my iPad it had a little screen on the top right when I exit out so I can draw on ibisPaintX and still watch the episode but when I use it on my phone it doesn’t want to be like that and I haven’t connected my iPad to the new WiFi password to see if the thing was still available or it’s not available or if it was only available on iPad or bigger screens, so I would like to suggest a screen on the top left like it was for the iPad, if you can’t and the iPhone screen is too small, I completely understand, but maybe you could make some changes to that.

This is a great app, and it really is the easiest way to see add free episodes, or for just seeing cool episodes you might have missed. It has all of Pokémon Sun and Moon, and it has other specials that are switched in and out with other episodes and generations. I highly recommend PokémonTV, it is really great for having fun while watching awesome Pokémon episodes! But I’ve been waiting for another Pokémon journeys episode, and they’ve only given us one!! I looked it up, and, like, 30 are already out! Please, please please put the rest of Pokémon journeys out. It’s not the fastest way to see new episodes, but it would be my choice any day!

Thank you Pokémon company, for resolving this issue!! I’m so glad my thoughts were heard! 😁

by HEaDbUrN69

I’ve had PokémonTV for over a year which most would consider I am qualified to give my opinion on PokémonTV . They put good seasons out on PokémonTV like sun and moon and most recently Pokémon journeys they used to have the XY series as well as the XYZ I wish they would bring those back most people have watched the entire Pokémon sun and moon series however they have kept it on their app for the longest of time I feel they should swap out sun and moon for the XY and XYZ series cause they didn’t have it out for that long as well they’ve added season 6 and 7 both of those well hear me out those seasons are garbage in comparison to the others plus the XY series is probably the most popular season in the Pokémon anime most people would probably want it to come back I am a part of this group so please for the love of god bring it back

by Jimmityjimsterfromjimtown

There is only one thing and that this thing is kind of important, ok enough talking now let me get to the conclusion ...The thing that is important and bugging me is that there are not enough seasons and episodes otherwise this is a great app and definently worth it rather than getting 2$ an episode and also I’d get it now If your gonna get it because it’ll probably cost money soon...anyway I’m going to continue.. PokémonTV is great in pretty much every thing but the most important thing is the only thing there forgetting ... IT DOES NOT HAVE ENOUGH EPISODES...I will still rate this 5 stars so people will find PokémonTV and get a good deal ... I hope the creators of PokémonTV and recognize this “letter” and do something about it ! Ok, sorry for wasting your time on a bunch of attention getters! I just love typing, talking, writing etc. and I probably hade so many grammatical mistakes because I’m in a rush.

Okay to start with I love PokémonTV! It helps so much just to watch Pokémon when ever I want to! But let’s get to the bad part, Netflix used to have Pokémon Xy and XYZ and I loved that series and when I came across your app I thought you would have that series but y’all didn’t and I feel like Pokémon Xy, XYZ and The Black and White series is becoming forgotten by many people and every time I’m trying to find these series I can’t unless you buy them! I really badly wish y’all could add these series, because Netflix delete it. Also, I think y’all should try and keep it a little more organized like Netflix! Also, I think y’all should have more Pokémon movies and series. I think y’all should have all of the series and movies, so all Pokémon fans can watch all of the Pokémon series and Movies. But overall I love PokémonTV and recommend it to everyone who likes Pokémon or don’t know what Pokémon is.

by HannahTempest

Old timer pkmn lover here. I love PokémonTV!!!!!!! They just keep adding more! First they added the Orange Islands seasons (one of my favorites) and recently they have added Johto Journeys (another favo 😍) and even Pokemon 3 the movie ✨💕 I REAAAALLLLLY hope they continue adding more old school episodes (season 4 Johto League Champions And season 5 Master Quest) all the way up until misty leaves 💔 it’s my whole childhood. just keeps getting better. They even have Pokémon generations. I even have enjoyed watching some of the newer seasons as well like sun and moon ultra which is like season 20. It’s just so wonderful to have PokémonTV available for free so that every Pokémon trainer, young and old, experienced and inexperienced, casual players and serious masters can appreciate the episodes old and new. I mean I deleted Netflix there’s no need for it anymore. I sincerely hope they keep adding to PokémonTV (and keep all that they’ve added so far as well)

by Steven-universe-rocks💖

I love PokémonTV so much and it’s amazing for Pokémon fanatics like me and many others. It lets you watch the Pokémon episodes for free and it works really well but I don’t really like how all the seasons aren’t on here. I am trying to watch all of the seasons again because why not but I can’t since it only has indigo league, orange islands, and the more recent seasons. I do understand why they can’t have it all since it would just be giving up everything for free when they still need to make money but it really is a shame. I hope maybe we can get all the episodes at some point and maybe even the movies, even with ads (not as much as crunchyroll though they have so much that it annoys me a times). That is really my only complaint but I still really recommend PokémonTV for anyone that wants to watch Pokémon for free, without ads and from the actual company. :)

by Leafeonbutterfree

I do like how they rotate it it gives you a enough time to watch the whole season before moving to the next one. However, I don’t like that the first volume comes out of the new season but then you have to wait a whole month for the next volume comes out. The next little issue I have is that in twilight wings a episode only comes out a month. I do like how they put the first episode of Pokémon journeys ,but I do hope they add the rest of the episodes soon. Even with those little issues PokémonTV is really great with the ability to download episodes so you can download it when you are going somewhere with out internet. Even the settings is not used that much I like how they have it where it’s really easy to get to. PokémonTV may have a few issues but it really is a amazing app.

by Dinohunter2025

This isn’t a “oh, nostalgia” review. I’m saying the way PokémonTV used to be set up is absolutely superior to this pile of garbage. It’s really annoying how you can only pick from the first 3 generations and Sun/Moon. These are perfectly fine animes (not counting SM, but that’s a personal problem. But I want to watch the X & Y and Diamond & Pearl shows. With the old app, you didn’t get every single episode at once, but you still got a good amount from each and every season, as well as the specials. It was far from perfect, but was incredibly better. This gives you, what, 4 gens and like one special? And this user interface is god awful. The split each season into 4 volumes? Ugh. And the pics for each season are huge. This only has 12 seasons yet it feels like you’re scrolling through fifty. And the 3 tabs are ultimately confusing. I have to go to a separate page to watch my downloads? And the settings page has no use whatsoever. At least it isn’t glitchy. The episodes always play correctly. It’s just a stupid decision they made that caused this whole thing to go downhill. Pokemon Company needs to stop making these decisions.

by OrangeGalen

There’s other reviews talking about the lack of available episodes, but I think it’s nice they have a rotation which gives it a feeling of you’re actually watching TV programs. I’m fine with that, but the issues come when trying to watch. Sometimes the episode just doesn’t load and I get an error saying ‘this operation cannot be completed’. Another nitpick is in the last 10-ish seconds of each video it minimizes the video to show the other available episodes. It’s annoying as I’m still trying to watch, and there’s no way to get it back full screen. Overall it’s a nice app, but gets finicky easily.
(Funny enough, I used PokémonTV years ago when it first came out, and I think it was better put together then.)

by Lopacki

PokémonTV is great for any pokemon fan. A huge selection of episodes, whole seasons, and a way to save episodes you like to watch later. My only major gripe is that there is no way to search for specific episodes. Often I want to watch an episode that I know the name of, but I don’t know the season or the volume, so I am forced to look through all of them to look for a single episode. Also, they currently have episodes for the Kanto, Johto and Alola regions, but nothing in between. (Barring the spotlights section where they have specific episodes centering on certain pokemon.) Though I grealy appreciate being able to watch the first four seasons straight, it would be nice to get a little bit of variety too.

by Critique...😒

I absolutely love PokémonTV! It gives you lots and lots of Pokémon episodes, and all for free! The reason I’m giving this 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the selection of episodes. You can get the Sun and Moon episodes without any episode gaps, but a lot of the other anime episodes are missing. Pokémon XY and XYZ are my favorites, so I was really sad when it wasn’t in PokémonTV . If the developers are reading this, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE add all of the episodes from the different regions so that we have a bigger variety. Netflix also got rid of XY and XYZ, so I can’t watch it anymore.🙁
Another suggestion; maybe you can make PokémonTV a little bit easier to navigate. Instead of having different volumes of episodes, just group each region of episodes into one volume, and then have other links for the different seasons. Also, for the Pokémon spotlight, you should have that at the top along with the movies as well. I hope you can take my suggestions into consideration! I look forward to great updates in the future!!!

by XXomgvanityXx

I can absolutely say I love this Pokémon tv app. I’ve downloaded PokémonTV since 2012 and I love it because I’m able to watch past Pokémon episodes and catch up on the new ones that I’ve missed plus it sometimes give you the chance to watch the movies which is super cool and they gather episodes from all season if they have a theme going on.
Unfortunately since the update PokémonTV won’t load complete. As soon as I start it up it shuts down and goes back to my home screen, like a crash I guess.
It’s really sad because I love PokémonTV and I’m a big fan of Pokémon. I hope this issue gets fixed.
Overall, I recommend downloading this. Especially if your a Pokémon fan

by Angela 1D Fan

So I was using PokémonTV last night and I used it today. I close PokémonTV and then later on I decided to try to use it again. PokémonTV crashed so I clicked on app support but I couldn't find anything on Pokemon TV. This has never happened to me so I wasn't sure what to do.I don't know what to do and I cannot watch Pokémon TV now and I'm really sad please fix this issue! I will try this on iPad and see if the same issue happens. I will update this review to let you know what happened.

Update!! PokémonTV crashed on my iPad as well! Please fix this as soon as possible! PLEASE??!! Update!

PokémonTV is working now! Now I can watch Pokémon whenever I want! 🙌🙌👏

by Matty Wyrick

Ok so first of all this is a really good app were you can watch pokemon episodes and etc. but there is a few things that I think it should improve first it should be more up to date because everyone wants to watch new episodes on PokémonTV but they can’t because you have to wait a week to watch them. Second you should make PokémonTV more like nexflix were everyone can watch the new episodes and not be behind on a series. and lastly you should make another app like this so you can put the other Pokémon series on there so other people can watch any Pokémon series they want. Other then that I think Pokémon tv is a really good app to watch your favorite Pokémon episodes.

by Once Upon A Time-Disney

I love PokémonTV ; but it should have all the complete previous seasons posted in their entirety so there won't be limited numbers of episodes that can be watched, also all the movies should be posted and all the specials too, also, the banned episodes should be included in app in the English language, the movies should be included as part of the seasons of Pokemon in between the episodes of the anime that the events of the movies take place in the anime. The bugs should be fixed so that PokémonTV works right. also, PokémonTV should have all the episodes of the Best Wishes series and the XY series & Diamond and Pearl & Advanced Generation.
