I want to add Pokemon Journeys to my jellyfin server, but jellyfin fucks up everything because it thinks it the regular Pokémon show from 1997 and imports metadata for that.

How can I fix this so it shows up correctly in jellyfin?

    Edit: you seem not to use sonarr? Haha thought i read that, o well… So I guess you have to rename the files so that they have s19 in the naming (the japaneese counting style) manually

    😂pokemon is a mess, and I did it in german, damn, ended up spending about 30h to have all episodes correctly sorted Sonarr shows and renames the files according the japaneese counting sceme but searches for national counting, well so it seemed to me.

    So what you have to do is tag the episodes correctly in sonarr: go to the pokemon series season one, click on manage episodes, check all episodes, and change season to 19. after that, you have to apply it using „preview rename“ so that jellyfin finds the correct match.

    After episode 82, sonarr should fail to auto import the episodes, so you have to add them manually from your queue.

      I actually do use sonarr, but it can’t find the show when searching by name at all, so I resorted to manual importing in JF…but that backfired

        How do you add stuff to your sonarr? I do it via prowlarr that manages my usenetindexer. If Sonarr does not fund stuff automatically, I search manually in prowlarr and there I can give the NZB to the downloader (I assume for torrenting, it is exactly the same) after that they appear in the queue of sonarr where they may or may not get automatically imported

          If sonarr doesn’t find it in the trackers configured in prowlarr, I have a private tracker where I manually search and add torrents to a qbit instance, I just categorize them as “tv-sonarr” and sonarr finds them. But it won’t import to media library because it can’t identify the show.

        Ahh now I understand, you were searching for Pokemon journey on sonarr when actually Pokemon journey is season 19 of pokemon (1997), did I understand correctly?

          Maybe? Im honestly not quite sure where Pokémon journeys fit in…it has it’s own title and season/series numbers, but somehow is also part of and continuing of the original 1997 show it seems.

              Why can’t the Japanese just be normal people and arrange things in a predictable and consistent manner…

                It is normal , in the japanese counting, the problem is that the translation company thought they have to apply their own counting.
