The Pokémon Company has announced the “major world exclusive announcement” during the latest episode of Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon in Japan. A brand-new Pokémon anime series has been announced. It’s simply called Pocket Monsters, a direct reference to when the anime first began back in 1997. The setting takes place in all Pokémon regions to date, from Kanto to Galar. The first teaser trailer consists of all starter Pokémon from every region. Meanwhile, a more in-depth reveal happened today, September 29, in Japan. A new trailer showcases Ash, Pikachu, as well as a new trainer named Go and his partner Scorbunny. Go is being voiced by Daiki Yamashita, the voice behind Deku in My Hero Academia.
Go is described as a 10-year old boy who’s aim is to catch the Mythical Pokémon Mew, which he remembers meeting when he was younger. He typically has a calm demeanor but also has a tendency to be hot-blooded. His ultimate dream is to catch all available Pokémon. Shinji Miyazaki is no longer involved in the anime; the BGM in the new series is going to be instead provided by Yuki Hayashi, who’s most well known for providing the BGM to My Hero Academia.
