They definitely lost the majority of their kids shows when Fox Kids launched on 19 October 1996. The recovery started a couple of years later when Pokemon started.

Yes! Wayback Machine struck gold! I've managed to find the schedule from Saturday 5th October 1996 - two weeks before Fox Kids launched! This was the Undun lineup:

7:05 - Tattooed Teenage Alien Fighters from Beverly Hills
7.30 - My Pet Monster
8.00 - Mighty Morphin Power Rangers
8.30 - X-Men
9.00 - Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles
9.30 - Spider-Man
10:00 - Superhuman Samurai Syber-Squad
10.30 - Stone Protectors
11.00 - Iron Man
11.30 - Superboy

By 26th October, the schedule for the same time period had changed to this:

http://web.archive.org/web/19961027060148/http://www.sky.co.uk/tvguide/261096-04.html

07:25 - Dynamo Duck
07:30 - Delfy and His Friends
08:00 - Orson & Olivia
08:30 - Free Willy
09:00 - Best of Sally Jessy Raphael
10:00 - Designing Women
10:30 - Murphy Brown
11:00 - Parker Lewis Can't Lose
11:30 - Real TV

As you can see, none of the same shows are there, and after 9am it's no longer kids shows.

I grew up watching Pokémon in the early 00s so it was still going then.

Hearing about Sky One Undun makes me think of Paul Akinbola, as his first ever (nonsensical) posts were about it. Before he graduated to sending obscene programme suggestions to Challenge.
