The anime has aired in 4:3 resolution since its debut in 1997. The conversion to HD will change the resolution to 16:9. Pokeani notes that Pokémon is relatively late in converting to HD in comparison to other anime series.
The anime has aired in 4:3 aspect ratio since its debut in 1997. Since early Advanced Generation it has been broadcast digitally, although not being produced in full HD resolution, thus appearing slightly blurry to viewers of TV Tokyo's HD programme. The conversion to HD will change the aspect ratio to 16:9. Pokeani notes that Pokémon is relatively late in converting to HD in comparison to other anime series.
