The action fires up from the edge of the universe to planet earth with the all new anime series, Bakugan Battle Brawlers: New Vestroia. Conflict erupts as New Vestroia gets invaded by people of Vestal and its citizens, resulting in the unthinkable — the Bakugan get abducted.

Catch the pulse-pounding quest of Ash Ketchum, together with his pal Pikachu and his mischievous Aipom, to become the ultimate Pokémon Master in the all-new season of Pokémon: Diamond and Pearl premiering on April 26, weeknights at 7:00 PM. Fresh from his victories in the Battle Frontier, Ash sets out for the Sinnoh region and encounters lots of new friends and new Pokémon, with new Gyms to beat and an intense Pokémon Contest to enter! There’s never a dull moment when Ash is around, especially when the villainous Team Rocket is still hot on his trail as always.

The action hits a crescendo as all the world’s mightiest heroes converge in back-to-back adventures in Cartoon Network’s Hero Up special programming line-up. On weekdays, wake up to back-to-back episodes of the awesome alien-morphing com of boy hero, Ben 10, followed by the all-new episodes of mystery-solving crypto-zoologist family The Secret Saturdays at 8:00 AM and 9:00 am respectively.

Finally, gear up for more Ben 10: Alien force, Teen Titans and Powerpuff Girls Z from 10:30 AM to 12:00 NN.
