Broadcast
The dub was first broadcast on Fox Kids in Brazil starting on Saturday, November 9, 2002, with a preview of the first two episodes. The official premiere happened on November 11, 2002, and the dub premiered its first 25 episodes on the channel, on a regular basis from Mondays to Fridays at 11:00 PM, until December 11, 2002 (episode 19 premiered following episode 11), when they were repeated until another 23 episodes premiered from June 6, 2003 to July 8, 2003. Its last broadcast was on September 30, 2003. It premiered on Animax when the channel bought the rights with its launch on July 31, 2005, scheduled from Monday to Sunday. On Animax, the first season was re-aired with four additional episodes that were not broadcast by Fox Kids: episode 12 aired on August 6, 2005 (despite a Fox Kids promo using clips from the episode), episodes 48 and 49 premiered on August 25, 2005, and episode 52 premiered on August 26, 2005. The second season of the dub premiered on June 9, 2008 on Animax, where the series would be rerun until it was removed from the schedule during October 2010, when the Animax faced a drastic rebranding.

The first season was recorded in São Paulo at Parisi Vídeo in 2002, and the second season was recorded at Álamo in 2006, due to the closure of Parisi Vídeo in 2005 (and because it dubbed most Animax content). Each season had 52 episodes licensed and distributed by TeleVix Entertainment, based on the Lacey Entertainment English dub. TeleVix entertainment held the license to the dub from when it was first broadcast until February 2014. According to Anime News Network, Imagine Action DaLicença also distributed the series in Brazil at one point.

Controversy arose during the dub's run on Fox Kids due to the anime's content. The then-deputy César Maia issued an action against the anime to call for its censorship, demanding that it be moved to a late night time slot or removed from the schedule. This soon caused the series' broadcasts, although relatively successful, to be halted until Animax started its broadcasts.

Release
Six episodes from the first season were released on DVD by Imagem Filmes in 2005 and 2006 across three volumes, containing two episodes on each disc. The first volume was released on September 15, 2005, the second on March 24, 2006, and the third on September 15, 2006. For unknown reasons, the second volume excludes the segment "Venda Dificil" from the list on its packaging despite its presence on the disc itself.
