i have a question how many episodes does pokemon in japan. a kid told me that pokemon has 800 episodes and it only has 400 something episodes here in the usa. also did pokemon start in japan in 1996? because i have been hearing about the 10th aniversy and i thought pokemon did not start here untill 1998.

Look at the Pocket Monsters guide, it has everything you need to know

2006 is the 10th Anniversary of the games being released in Japan which was February 1996.

where would i find that

What? The Pocket Monsters Guide?

pokemon has 461 Episodes in Japan that kid is full of BS .

that is what i thought. i knew power rangers had more episodes

the pokemon website says there is 801 eps.

There is not 800 episodes. Japan hasn't even reach 500 and we are behind them
