The final episodes of Pokemon Journeys come to Netflix in March

by

Netflix has announced that the last 12 episodes of Pokemon Journeys: The Series will be released in March. The 12 episodes will include a return to the Alola region, the anime adaptation of the film Pokemon Sword and Shield story along with a confrontation with the legendary Pokemon Mewtwo. Pokemon Journeys: The Series he follows the protagonist Ash Ketchum and his new travel companion Goh as the duo travels around the world of Pokemon researching Pokemon, competing in the prestigious World Coronation Series competition and trying to capture all known Pokemon species. This is the fourth batch of new episodes released on Netflix, bringing the total number of episodes to 48.

However, today’s announcement was met with some confusion and anxiety, as Netflix and The Pokemon Company noted that these were the “final episodes” of Pokemon Journeys. Netflix is ​​unlikely to cancel its deal with Pokemon Company, as the platform became the main home of new Pokemon episodes just over a year ago. However, we’ll probably see a “remark” on the Pokemon anime series, similar to how the final season of Pokemon Series: Sun and Moon It was called Pokemon Series: Sun and Moon – Ultra Legends is listed separately from the other episodes in Pokemon Series: Sun and Moon despite the fact that it is a direct continuation of that series. Curiously, while The Pokemon Company’s official press release on the new episodes mentioned that these were the “final” episodes of Pokemon Journeys, this was not mentioned on any post on the Pokemon social networks.

We will notice that earlier this year, The Pokemon Company added a URL for “legends.pokemon.com”, which many thought was related to the anime series. This could mean that we will see the announcement of a series of anime “Pokemon Legends”, which makes sense, because Goh recently obtained Legendary Pokemon Suicune in the episodes broadcast in Japan.

Obviously, the end of the year Pokemon Journeys it’s a big deal for Pokemon fans, even if it’s just a temporary measure. We’ll have to see if there’s an interruption in Netflix’s new episodes or if it just leads to another re-brand of the US TV series.
