Old school 90s (or early 00s) fans rejoice! It's been confirmed that more Pokemon will be airing on television with not just two movies but also the XY series!
Here's the details:
In addition to 'Genesect and the Legend Awakened' (the 16th movie), CITV will also be broadcasting 'Kyurem Vs the Sword of Justice' (the 15th movie) this Saturday 14th September 2013 at 9:25am to go with the current Pokemon series 'Black & White' also being shown on CITV.
If you end up missing Kyurem Vs the Sword of Justice, Universial is also releasing the film on DVD at the end of the month.
Anime on television seems to be slowly increasing these few years with Dragon Ball Z Kai and Yu-Gi-Oh on Kix, Kaze/Viz Media movies showing up on Sony Movies Channel and From Up on Poppy Hill arriving on Sky Movies Box Office later this month.
