'''ITV1''' is a public service network station that broadcasts in Great Britain and Northern Ireland. It is currently owned by {{wp|ITV}}, and some of its branding is also used by {{wp|Channel Television}}.
 
ITV is the only company that has broadcast the {{pkmn|anime}} on UK terrestrial television.
 
Currently, episodes do not air on ITV1. However, sister channels {{wp|ITV4}} and {{wp|CiTV}} continued to show episodes up until June 2010 when {{wp|ITV4}} stopped airing the episodes from {{wp|CITV}} in {{wp|Wales}}.
 
==GMTV==
GMTV is an early-morning programming block on ITV1. Episodes of Pokémon used to air every Saturday beginning at 8:50 and ending by 9:25. It was shown in this time slot from September 1999 until sometime after the [[Generation I]] games were released in the United Kingdom.
 
==SM:TV Live==
SM:TV Live was a live Saturday morning entertainment show that started at 9:25. It would replace the [[Who's That Pokémon?]] segment with small sketches that featured the hosts, {{wp|Ant & Dec}}, having their own "PokéFight". Some later episodes featured the duo performing their own [[PokéRap]].
 
==Missing episodes of shows==
ITV1 has, on more than one occasion, skipped episodes or canceled television shows mid-series. These are planned as the TV guides published over a week before date of transmission reflects this. This has happened to {{wp|ReBoot}} and {{wp|Cardcaptors}} before the Pokémon series aired, and {{wp|Digimon}} following the cancellation of Pokémon.<!--This list of programs where all in the similar slots, should it be noted?--> This is not limited to children animation, as the initial run of Season 1 of {{wp|Pushing Daisies}} being the most prominent example of a non-children's program.
 
Pokémon has been stopped twice; once during the [[Pokémon: The Adventures in the Orange Islands|Orange Islands]] saga and once just after [[Pokémon: Advanced]] started. Neither series has been seen on ITV 1 since.
