Pokemon Evolutions has shared a fun behind-the-scenes look at its first episode! The Pokemon franchise is in the midst of celebrating its monumental 25th Anniversary with a number of new projects that not only includes new releases for the game (which also includes a brand new release and a remake of a older game), but collaborative music albums with major artists, new trading card releases, new anime seasons, and a special limited series that explores moments from the games and regions from over the years through anime in a way not seen in the series before.ย

Pokemon Evolutions was a special limited webseries kicking off this Fall that explores each region of the video games through the eyes of a specific fan favorite in each one. The first of these episodes focused on the Galar Champion Leon as he battled against Eternatus during a take on the Darkest Day arc from the Pokemon Sword and Shield games, and the official Twitter account for the series revisited this first episode with a special look back on how it all came together with a fun look behind-the-scenes of one of its scenes. You can check it out below:ย
