Season chronology |
This is a list of episodes in Pokémon: Johto League Champions, the fourth season of the Pokémon animated series (ポケットモンスター Poketto Monsutā?, Pocket Monsters), covering the further adventures of series protagonist Ash Ketchum and his friends Brock and Misty in Johto.
The fourth season of Pokémon originally aired in Japan from August 2000 to August 2001 on TV Tokyo and originally on U.S. television from August 2001 to September 2002 on Toonami block on the WB.
The Japanese opening songs are "OK" by Rica Matsumoto, and "Aim to be a Pokemon Master" by Whiteberry. The ending songs are "Takeshi's Paradise" by Yuji Ueda, "To My Best Friend" by Iwasaki Hiromi, and "Face Forward Team Rocket" by Jessie, James, & Meowth. The English opening song is "Born to Be a Winner" by David Rolfe.
The division between seasons of Pokémon is based on the English version openings of each episode, and may not reflect the actual production season. The English episode numbers are based on their first airing in the United States either in syndication, on The WB Television Network or on Cartoon Network. (Other English-speaking nations largely followed either this order or the Japanese order). Subsequent airings of the English version follow the original Japanese order, except in the case of episodes which are no longer shown in English. In 2007, Pokémon: Johto League Champions started airing on Toonami Jetstream.
