Nothing bad actually happens in this series.

Throughout, there are implied relationships between characters, however nothing explicit is shown.

Male characters are occasionally seen shirtless (typically with swim trunks or board shorts).

The main character gets some dates from humans without showing signs of actual flirting.

There are no mentions of the original Japanese version. The one on Netflix is the 4kids dub and is censored. I don't know what's in the original but I'm guessing it's moderate.

(Some episode-specific details have been deleted. Only provide series or season details. Episode specific items should be added to the episode.)

In one of the episodes team rocket has a dream about them at the beach laying down and a girl is wearing a bikini and a man is shirtless but wearing a swim suit but it is brief

Beach episodes throughout, bikini clad women are shown.

A running gag involve Brook flirting to women's, and he get mild beaten by friends and his Pokémon afterward. This is played for laugh and comedic purposes.

Nothing coarse or flashy since it's a kids show.

Some female characters wear crop tops.

Occasional adult humor and fanservice (e.g. Adult fantasies, crossdressing, offensive dialogue)

During the XY season, a running gag involve Bonnie usually asks every single women's to marry her big brother, but he rejected her offer at times. This is played for laughs.

Various female characters-notably the recurring character of Jessie-wear clothing that is revealing, tight-fitting, or both.

The closest the Pokemon show comes to nudity is characters wearing swim suits.

Pokemon themselves are naked (for the most part) but have no visible genitals, and the issue of how Pokemon reproduce is always carefully avoided.

Pokemon battles spread out in almost every episode.

A few references to animal abuse

In one of the episodes featuring Hunter J (a poacher), she orders one of her Pokemon to grab Ash by the throat, and it begins to suffocate him. When Ash manages to free himself, J ejects him from her aircraft at a great height, and Ash nearly falls to his death.

The first season was very heavy on weaponary, with guns, hammers, trick bombs, etc. being present in some episodes.

Characters are oftenly electrocuted. This is meant for comical purposes.

Season 5 (Master Quest) is probably the most violent season, tied with the first season. Especially how the season features the characters getting gagged in some episodes and Larvitar's story is very dark (about its mum getting abused)

In Ash's gym battle against Brock, Pikachu gets squished by Brock's onix and crys loudly

Moderate in a lot of episodes.

At the end of a Pokémon battle, a Pokémon will sometimes be injured unless the battle was a draw. Injuries are not graphic.

Some fantasy/cartoon violence; no blood is shown

Mild fantasy violence involving Pokemon battles. This is completely justifiable and within context, and not at all brutal or intense. You shouldn't worry about showing this to your kids.

Infrequent mild comic violence, such as characters comically hitting each other. Again, it is entirely contextual and intended to be comical.

There is one episode that was banned in America featuring a couple scenes involving guns. The guns are fired at Team Rocket, but none of the bullets actually strike them. Also, one of the guns is pointed at Ash's head in one scene. A few scenes are more violent in the Japanese version, including slaps to the face and bombs (which are renamed blaster balls) that never hit anyone.

The Japanese version of Electric Shock Showdown has Lt. Surge using mild English swear words such as "Damn". Obviously, these aren't used in the dub.

Words like "Damn" and "Hell" occasionally appear in the Japanese version.

Gee and gosh are used.

Japanese version: Mild. English dub: Infrequent and Mild.

"Heck" is used, but it's very rarely.

James has said the word "Bloody" twice in the Diamond and Pearl season. Once in "Two Degrees of Separation!" and the other in "Staging a Heroes' Welcome!" (replaced with "Single" in international prints of the latter). Dawn also once uses the word "Bummer" in the episode "Battling The Generation Gap!" and May once used the word in another episode.

Infrequent offensive name-calling (e.g. 'Special', 'Goonies')

Mild name calling, but nothing bad.

No actual swearing; however, there are infrequent, very mild insults (such as stupid and loser).

In the japanese version in the SUN & MOON season, some people have orange drinks that might be beer, it has been changed in the US version with something green and wine glasses can be seen in the JP version too. Once again it has been replaced in the USA

Very minor smoking scenes (happens rarely.)

Not much, very less scenes showing things of this sort. However a few scenes show adults drinking beer or wine.

Ash and friends get involved in a lot of problems during the adventure. They are sometimes depicted lightly, sometimes heavy and sincere.

In one of the Team Galactic episodes, the villains try to blow up an entire island that Ash and his friends are on. This is barely averted in time, with the bombs actually going off, but one of the characters manages to contain the explosion. This is easily one of the most suspenseful sequences in the show.

Pokemon is rather, both for kids and adults alike. They have childish themes and Morales which makes it appealing for families to let their kids watch Pokemon. But sometimes during villainous arc, it can get dark quite a bit. This was true for the previous seasons of Pokemon anime (From season 1-19). Since the start of Sun and moon, the overture of themes has been toned down significantly.

Team Rocket tries to capture Pikachu in almost every episodes.

Pretty much mild since it's for children, but there are some scary parts in some episodes and Pokémon fighting.

Ash and his friends get into scenarios/situations that may be scary for some viewers.

Some mature themes, such as abandonment and abuse/neglect are discussed/shown.

Mild/Moderate for neurodivergent viewers.
