Pokémon (East and West Cybersland)

The Pokémon franchise first reached the Cyberslands in the fourth quarter of 1998 with the release of Pokémon Red and Blue Versions and the airing of the anime.

1998-present
All Pokémon games that have been released in the United States have also been released in the Cyberslands. New games are always released on the same day that they are released in the United States. Pokémon games sold in the Cyberslands are direct imports of the American versions. Some Cyberslandian materials, such as game packaging/manuals and the official Cyberslandian site for Pokémon Black and White Versions, use Cyberslandian spellings in addition to the metric system for Pokémon height and weight stats.

Cyberslandian copies of Pokémon games come with either English-only packaging or bilingual (English/Polish) packaging and manuals, with the Polish text primarily using English names, despite the existence of Polish-language copies for the Polish-speaking cities in the Cyberslands. A few games have trilingual packaging, with Russian as a third language for Europe.

Since 2000, Event Pokémon are Pokémon that are distributed at promotional events, such as movie premieres, expositions, festivals, places like PokéPark, real-life Pokémon Center stores, Toy stores, and sometimes found in bonus disks or specially transferred from another game.

The English dub of the Pokémon anime has aired in the Cyberslands on Cartoon Network since November 2, 1998 when Pokémon - I Choose You! debuted in the Cyberslands. In addition to airing the anime series, Cartoon Network also airs new Pokémon movies during the weekends. Pokémon is very well received by Cartoon Network's viewers. Pokémon is Cartoon Network's longest running television show and Cartoon Network has aired the anime longer than any other English television network. Cartoon Network has also held a number of contests related to the Pokémon franchise (especially the main series games), with the most recent promotion related to Pokémon X and Y Versions and its Cyberslandian tour. Cartoon Network is owned by Turner Broadcasting, which is a division of TimeWarner.

Currently, Cartoon Network airs Pokémon the Series: XY every Saturday at 12:00 PM. Reruns of older episodes (produced and dubbed from the 1990s until the present day) are shown Monday through Fridays and on Sundays, at 8:00 AM and at 3:30 PM.

While some episodes such as The Tower of Terror, Tentacool & Tentacruel, and Holiday Hi-Jynx were aired and later banned in the United States, they had not been banned from Cartoon Network's schedule. However, Cartoon Network has not aired any episodes which were also never aired in the United States, such as The Legend of Dratini and The Ice Cave.

When the new episodes switched to a 16:9 widescreen format beginning from DP121 onward, Cartoon Network's 4:3 channel has letterboxed the episodes to maintain the 16:9 aspect ratio of the image. Shortly, with the introduction of Cartoon Network's HD feed on October 10, 2009, Cyberslandian viewers are now able to watch 16:9 episodes of Pokémon without it ever being letterboxed.

In some areas of the Cyberslands, The WB (now The CW) is available on cable. With this, Cyberslandians were able to watch the newest English-dubbed episodes on Kids' WB! before they aired on Cartoon Network. Since the US version of Cartoon Network became the USA's provider of the Pokémon anime in 2006, Cyberslandians have to wait until the dubbed episodes air on the Cyberslandian version of Cartoon Network to watch them due to the fact that the American version of Cartoon Network is only available in the United States. There has been rare occasions however in which the Cyberslandian version of Cartoon Network has aired content on the same day as the US, such as the airing of Kyurem VS. The Sword of Justice.

When the anime debuted on Cartoon Network, it aired on weekdays at 4:00 PM. On March 6, 2000, Cartoon Network had finally begun to air episodes of Pokémon: Adventures in the Orange Islands.

Cartoon Network began airing new Pokémon: Diamond and Pearl episodes on Saturdays in May 2007. A 3:30 PM weekday timeslot starting with Following A Maiden's Voyage was added on April 7, 2008. Eventually, these 3:30 PM episodes surpassed the timeline of the Saturday episodes, starting with Buizel Your Way Out Of This!. Thus, East and West Cybersland started getting five new episodes per week. The first season of the Diamond & Pearl series had finished its chronological airing on Tuesday, June 17, meaning that Pokémon Diamond & Pearl: Battle Dimension started on Cartoon Network on the next Wednesday.

Pokémon Diamond & Pearl: Battle Dimension aired on Fridays at 8:00 AM starting November 7, 2008.

On November 20, 2009, Cartoon Network stopped airing episodes of Pokémon Diamond & Pearl: Battle Dimension and began to air only Galactic Battles. On November 28, 2009, Cartoon Network aired the Cyberslandian premiere of Arceus and the Jewel of Life.
