The television series Pokémon is a Japanese anime series that was created as a supplement to video game franchises. The anime series broadly presents the same story as was used in the individual video games, but naturally with a multitude of story detours.

As part of the broader series catalog, the television show features Ash accompanied by his partner Pikachu as he travels. The program is classified under genres including animation, action and adventure, and sci-fi and fantasy. Viewers and fans can track media, overview details, and streaming options through database platforms. Additional home media releases associated with the broader property include limited edition steelbook collections containing feature-length films released on Blu-ray alongside single DVD releases.
