Pokemon has unveiled new looks at two animated shows, and both of them look completely adorable.
As part of the Pokemon Presents showcase today (July 22), the first look at Pokemon Tales: The Misadventures of Sirfetch'd and Pichu, a new series made with Wallace and Gromit animation studio Aardman, was unveiled, along with some updates on Netflix's Pokemon Concierge season 2.
"We'll be putting some very special Pokémon front and centre, as the heroes of our show and it will be set in a region that is very close to our hearts," Aardman creative director Peter Lord said during the showcase. "It will give a unique look at the Pokémon world, told from the perspective of Pokémon with the signature sense of Aardman character and comedy and craft."
Meanwhile, Pokemon Concierge season 2 finally has a first trailer and a release date. In the new teaser, Haru encounters new guests (including Sealeo, who seems to be causing its fair share of mischief) – and her ex-boyfriend. But it seems like things are only looking up for her. "Moving here helped a lot," she says. "Working actually makes me happy. And I can work harder too." Check out the full clip below.
The first season hit Netflix in December 2023 and follows Haru, a new employee of the Pokemon Resort, who's trying her best to settle into her new role and make sure all her guests have the best, most relaxing time possible.
Per the official synopsis, "as Haru figures out how to make her guests happy, she ends up discovering a new side to herself." Psyduck, Pikachu, Eevee, Dragonite, and Magikarp were among the familiar faces that made an appearance in season 1, and the new season is set to see Shinx, Corphish, and Arcanine enter the fray.
Pokemon Concierge season 2 arrives on Netflix on September 4. In the meantime, fill out your watchlist with our picks of the other best Netflix shows streaming now.
