Cartoon Network is a cable network owned by Time Warner that carries the Pokémon anime meta series. The channel was launched on October 1, 1992 after Turner purchased the animation studio Hanna-Barbera Productions in 1991. They started with Pokémon: Battle Frontier on September 8th, 2006. They picked up the series after corporate sibling Kids' WB! dropped the series in its efforts to focus more on series produced in-house, which has since been taken over by 4Kids Entertainment, the former producer of the anime series.

Previously, they had aired reruns of episodes from Pokémon's earlier seasons such as Master Quest. As of April 2010, almost every series has aired on Cartoon Network. They have also aired all of the Pokémon Chronicles episodes during the summer of 2006. Currently, the series does not air on the network.
New dubbed episodes of Pokémon Black & White can be seen on Saturday mornings at 9:00 AM ET/PT (7:00 AM CT). As of March 2011, it repeated Pokémon Diamond and Pearl: Galactic Battles and currently repeats Pokémon Diamond and Pearl: Sinnoh League Victors. They both aired weekdays at 8:00 AM ET/PT. On February 12, 2011, Cartoon Network started airing Pokémon: Black & White. Currently, their sibling network Boomerang airs the original series.
Cartoon Network tends to marginalize end credits. This is not a very big loss for anime episodes, which have rather unremarkable ending sequences in the dub. However, by extension, this means that the credits of Pokémon movies aired on the channel, which contain an epilogue, are missed, to the chagrin of viewers. Also, when the thirteenth movie first aired on the channel, several scenes were omitted, which TPCi did not appreciate.
