Pokémon DVD/Blu-ray releases - Blu-ray Forum

InuYashaCrusade · 10-13-2018, 04:33 AM

A thread to discuss and detail every Pokemon season and movie release. Instead of creating a new one for each season, this makes it easier to have it all in one place. I've decided to disregard gathering info on past Part/Set releases due to Viz slowly re-releasing all of them into complete collections. This thread will not exclusively be for Viz releases, it'll be a general thread with occasional updates.

Complete Season DVD/Blu-ray releases:

Season 1 - Indigo League - Complete Collection DVD/Blu-ray (10/28/14)
*"Holiday Hi-Jynx" omitted from this re-release, last released in 2008 Part 3 box set. The first 52 episodes of Indigo League were released in a Champion's Edition Blu-ray box set, including a preview booklet of Pokemon Adventures. No additional seasons have been announced for Blu-ray. The Champion's Edition release was limited edition and received a standard Blu-ray release in April 2019.

Season 2 - Adventures in the Orange Islands - Complete Collection DVD (5/5/15)
*"Stage Fight" and "The Mandarin Island Miss-Match" omitted, last released in 2008 complete box set which is now OOP. The season name was changed from "Adventures on the Orange Islands" to "Adventures in the Orange Islands" for this 2015 re-release.

Season 3 - The Johto Journeys - Complete Collection DVD (11/10/15)
*"The Psychic Sidekicks" and "Fortune Hunters" released within the U.S. for the first time ever. Both episodes were left out of the VHS/DVD releases from the early 2000's. "The Whistle Stop" has been edited to remove Eric Stuart's "Leo Burnett and 4Kids are the devil" when played in reverse. The original audio is replaced with James screaming. - Noted by akaun6899

Season 4 - Johto League Champions - Complete Collection DVD (5/31/16)
Season 5 - Master Quest - Complete Collection DVD (10/11/16)
Season 6 - Advanced - Complete Collection DVD (5/16/17)
Season 7 - Advanced Challenge - Complete Collection DVD (12/5/17)
Season 8 - Advanced Battle - Complete Collection DVD (6/12/18)
Season 9 - Battle Frontier - Complete Collection DVD (1/8/19)
Season 10 - Diamond & Pearl - Complete Season DVD (7/30/19)
Season 11 - DP Battle Dimension - Complete Season DVD (1/7/20)
Season 12 - DP Galactic Battles - Complete Season DVD (8/18/20)
Season 13 - DP Sinnoh League Victors - Complete Season DVD (2/23/21)
Season 14 - Black & White - Complete Season DVD (7/27/21)
Season 15 - BW Rival Destinies - Complete Season DVD (3/15/22)
Season 16 - BW Adventures in Unova and Beyond - Complete Season DVD (2/21/23)

*Seasons 17-19 have all been fully released in various Part and Set releases. Beginning with Season 20, Viz put an end to splitting the seasons up and placing them in complete collections only. I may detail these releases in the future but I feel like it'll add unnecessary clutter, thanks to the seasons being split into so many different parts.

Season 20 - Sun & Moon - Complete Collection DVD (11/6/18)
Season 21 - Sun & Moon Ultra Adventures - Complete Collection DVD/Blu-ray (5/21/19)

*Beginning with Season 22 VIZ went back to part sets instead of complete season collections. DVD only, no Blu-ray currently announced for Season 22 and beyond.

Season 22 - Sun & Moon Ultra Legends:
Part 1: The Last Grand Trial (9/8/20)
Part 2: The Alola League Begins (1/12/21)
Part 3: The First Alola League Champion (5/4/21)

Season 23 - Pokemon Journeys:
Part 1: The Journey Starts Today (1/11/22)
Part 2: Destination Coronation (4/5/22)
Part 3: Legends of Galar (7/12/22)

Movies 1-3 DVD "The First Three Movies" - Warner Bros. release (4/7/09)
*2-disc release using a double-sided DVD for Movies 2 and 3. Includes all original Pikachu Shorts, bonus features and audio commentary on all three films.

*All four films on one disc with no Pikachu Shorts or bonus features included. Release is long out of print and goes for a good amount on eBay/Amazon. 4Ever was streamed during the 20th Anniversary celebration but has not seen any physical release by Viz. Interestingly enough, you can no longer rent 4Ever on Amazon anymore either. The rights situation surrounding these films is unclear at present, at least when it comes to 4Ever in particular.

Movies 10-13 Blu-ray - Diamond & Pearl 4-Movie Collection (4/9/19)

InuYashaCrusade · 10-13-2018, 04:35 AM

I may detail the single volume releases for Indigo League for fun down the road, as well as the older releases which are now out of print and hard to find. For now though, this will do. There's a couple of random releases that I'll point out in the future.

Battle Frontier Complete Collection was announced today, which prompted me to create this thread.

LordCrumb · 10-13-2018, 05:28 AM

Could link them to their Database listings? I assume these are the USA releases?

I used to be into Pokemon, like most kids of that time were... might be interested in checking out the original series again eventually.

Yeah I'm referring to U.S. releases here but I may mention imports if they bring something new/different to the table. The first one being the Pikachu shorts included with the Gold Edition Blu-ray in Australia. This is actually a region free release, I can confirm and own it.

Don’t go by Amazon. Viz titles are Distributed by Warner Brothers so sometimes Viz pre-orders can be kind of screwy on Amazon. Other retailers get the pre-order in just fine.

Kirben · 10-13-2018, 11:38 AM

Are there any releases with subs and Japanese audio? Might be useful to include that info in the listing.

Only the DVD releases of the first three movies in Japan included both the English and Japanese versions, but the English dubtitles could only be enabled during the English version.

Also only the Japanese DVD releases of the first Pokemon movie offer the uncut English version, with MewTwo's origin.

I wouldn't say that. The Miramax-Owned entries are listed on the Pokémon website under the movie section, though they are still not under TPCI's umbrella in terms of distribution.

Nope, dub only since the start within the United States. I'll add that in for a future edit though. I plan on going back and reading all posts, will add everything in accordingly.

Thanks! Searching on RS is a pain on mobile, even when I type in everything exactly as it is, :/

Oh, nevermind, that’s just the DVD,

Vashetti · 10-13-2018, 10:45 PM

Worth noting the Australian Blu-rays for the first two movies have DTS-HD MA 5.1 audio, as opposed to the 2.0 version other territories get. They also re-released the boxset of the first three movies with an extra Blu-ray containing the Pikachu shorts for those movies.

kevers7290 · 10-14-2018, 12:35 AM

Any advice on where to find an Australian copy of movie 14? (BW Victini movie)

eBay would be the best option, since it is out of print.

akaun6899 · 10-14-2018, 02:07 AM

Another note about the Johto Journeys set; the episode "The Whistle Stop" is slightly edited from its original version. This is the episode that featured reversed audio that, when played normally, revealed Eric Stuart saying "Leo Burnett and 4Kids are the devil". The version on the DVD dubs this over with James screaming.

kevers7290 · 10-14-2018, 02:42 AM

Great thread, thanks InuYashaCrusade! I've already found and ordered the Australian and German movies. I had no idea the German discs had the English dub. I also put in an order for the "Gold Collection" from JB Hi-Fi. Not sure if it's out of print or not as it's OOS but orderable, so I have my fingers crossed. I can get rid of my ugly 3-film steelbook if so. Thanks again!

Vashetti Special Member Top contributor Member since:Nov 2010 Location:Wales, United Kingdom 4K collection:26 Blu-ray collection:139 DVD collection:3 Trading Score:10	Worth noting the Australian Blu-rays for the first two movies have DTS-HD MA 5.1 audio, as opposed to the 2.0 version other territories get. They also re-released the boxset of the first three movies with an extra Blu-ray containing the Pikachu shorts for those movies.

This is the episode that featured reversed audio that, when played normally, revealed Eric Stuart saying "Leo Burnett and 4Kids are the devil". The version on the DVD dubs this over with James screaming.

kevers7290 Blu-ray Guru Member since:Jun 2009 Blu-ray collection:52 Trading Score:234	Great thread, thanks InuYashaCrusade! I've already found and ordered the Australian and German movies. I had no idea the German discs had the English dub. I also put in an order for the "Gold Collection" from JB Hi-Fi. Not sure if it's out of print or not as it's OOS but orderable, so I have my fingers crossed. I can get rid of my ugly 3-film steelbook if so. Thanks again!
