Pokemon Concierge Sets Release Window With Sneak Peek Clip: Watch
Pokemon Concierge is a new stop-motion anime project team up between The Pokemon Company and Netflix, and now fans have gotten a new look at this upcoming Pokemon anime series with a new sneak peek clip showing how it's all coming together! Netflix and The Pokemon Company have been working together ever since the streaming service became the exclusive platform for the North American releases of the Pokemon anime series, but fans have begun seeing this partnership expand with all kinds of new projects and specials. This includes an upcoming stop-motion anime series that will be imagining a whole new take on the franchise.
Pokemon Concierge was previously announced for a release some time in 2023, but during Anime Expo 2023, Netflix confirmed that Pokemon Concierge will be releasing with the streaming service some time this December. While there's no concrete release date for this new anime just yet, Netflix released a sneak peek clip of Pokemon Concierge in motion on their official Twitter account.

What Is Pokemon Concierge?
Pokemon Concierge is a new stop-motion anime series now in the works with Netflix scheduled for a release this December. Animated by the team at Dwarf Studios (Miraculous: Ladybug & Cat Noir, My Dad The Bounty Hunter), the series follows Haru, the concierge at a special hotel for Pokemon trainers and their Pokemon. It's yet to be revealed how many episodes this new series will be running as of this writing, but thankfully it won't be too much longer before it actually hits.
Minyoung Kim, Vice President of Netflix Content in Asia, said the following about Pokemon Concierge in its original announcement, "Netflix is looking forward to delighting fans in Japan and around the world with 'Pokémon Concierge,' an entirely new visual and storytelling experience featuring ground-breaking stop-motion animation set in the Pokémon world in close collaboration with The Pokémon Company."
