It seems like 4 kids somehow obtained the rights to air the pokemon anime and starting june 2nd every saturday morning they will air back to back episodes of battle frontier starting with fear factor phony and sweet baby james.

LOL

So 4kids is airing a saga they didn't dub. There has to be a sense of irony behind this. Especially since its Battle Frontier.

They most likely got desperate, due to the loss of yugioh so they decided to find the only anime that is bigger then yugioh, and obviously tcpi isn't going to deny more exposure for pokemon
 
Haha, Wobbuffet's most epic moment as the sneak peak. ;P

That's very.... interesting. Especially since it was in the middle of BF when it got cancelled on that station.
 
Pokeception? lol

How weird...and I remember just how awful the dub was in Season 9.
 
It's really odd they'd start with the dub's Battle Frontier. It's completely in the middle of the actual series, isn't dubbed by 4kids, and is the absolute worst the dub has ever been since it was the very start of the new dub. If they started up with like the start of Advanced that would make more sense to me. Wonder if they'll get anything beyond the end of AG.

Boomerang is airing the advanced saga so it make's no sence for 4 kids to do it, basically 4 kids can only air the original 5 series or the diamond and pearl one, if cn will let them
 
Boomerang is airing Hoenn in 2 weeks while CW4kids is airing Battle Frontier.

Really strange to see two channels airing the AG series out of nowhere

So pokemon is airing on 3 stations now?

Tcpi is brilliant when it come's to marketing the anime
 
The funny bit is that pokemon will air every saturday morning at 8:00am to 9:00am replacing sonic x, so that means pokemon battle frontier will go up against rival destinies!!!
 
There's got to be someone out there without cable who will start watching and wonder why they didn't make any new episodes for 6 years.

The cavern beneath that rock must descend pretty damn deep.
 
I didn't have cable for many years of my life, so I can see how it's possible, but with packages like I have now where my cable and internet come from the same company, I must say it is less likely than it was when I was younger. I hardly think this will affect much, since TPCI seems to be able to freely get any of the 4kids VAs when they want, but put them in other roles. I do find it amusing that they now have to air the season that they never got to do.
 
I imagine anyone who wanted to see these episodes already did ages ago.

Fun fact: When the dub of this season first aired there was non-stop complaining about Ash's voice. Ah, the memories.
 
If they air Battle Frontier, that probably means they'll end up airing Diamond and Pearl, too.

How strange. I'd think they would air the episodes they actually dubbed.

They only get what TCPI sells to them.

Boomerang has the rights to the older seasons and apparently Hoenn now. While Cartoon Network likely still owns DP and BW.
