Well Plutokians makes me think of the Plutarkians from Biker Mice from Mars

I looked through episodes and clips of the show. Sorry, it doesn't look like it's Biker Mice from Mars. The names of the villains are very similar though. Now I'm starting to wonder if I'm mixing up a bunch of shows. Thanks though!

Just checked it out and it only began airing in 2000. The show I'm thinking of is not that recent.

Thanks for the suggestion!

If you feel it was likely that it was shown on a BBC channel, it might be worth searching BBC Genome http://genome.ch.bbc.co.uk

“Children’s BBC” is a search term that might help, as well as any shows which had cartoons shown within them such as “Going Live” and “Parallel 9”. You can narrow down the time period in the advanced section. You could add “cartoon”, “animation” or “animated” to the search terms

Some of the shows have little to no synopsis so it might not be too useful... but if you can think of any words that might be in the show’s title, it might help you find it

Found a reference to a show on Genome called “Toxic Crusaders” which had the “Smogulans” and a monster called “Polluto”, probably not it though

Thanks for the suggestions mla.

I didn't have any luck using the BBC Genome search but it's useful to know about.

Are you sure it was BBC 1 or 2 and not one of the ITV franchises or Channel 4?
