Pokemon is getting the wrong show titles for Season 1

I am trying to add season 1 of Pokémon, but episodes 1-18 have the titles for Pokémon Generations.

This is my folder structure:

Television\
  Pokemon\
    Season 1\
      Pokémon - S01E01 - Pokémon! I Choose You!.mkv
      Pokémon - S01E02 - Pokémon Emergency!.mkv
      Pokémon - S01E03 - Ash Catches a Pokémon.mkv
      ...
      Pokémon - S01E18 - Beauty and the Beach.mkv
      Pokémon - S01E19 - Tentacool & Tentacruel.mkv
      ...

but in plex, I get these as titles:

Pokémon Generations E01 The Adventure!
Pokémon Generations E02 The Chase!
Pokémon Generations E03 The Challenger!
...
Pokemon Generations E18 The Redemption!
Tentacool & Tentacruel
...

The titles after episode 18 are fine, just the first 18.

Change the folder name to Pokémon (1997)
Then perform the Plex Dance.

I tried that and gave it a day to match things, but now non of the episodes match.

A weird idea, since I always thought Plex wouldn’t fetch embedded metadata from MKV files. But here goes:
Go to

  • Settings - Server - Agents - Shows - TheTVDB

In there, grab the line ‘Local Media Assets’ with your mouse and drag it downwards, so it ends up being at the bottom of the stack of active agents.
Repeat the same under

  • Settings - Server - Agents - Shows - TheMovieDatabase
  • Settings - Server - Agents - Movies - Plex Movie
  • Settings - Server - Agents - Movies - TheMovieDatabase

After doing that, ‘Refresh Metadata’ on the whole show.
