The show is titled Pokemon: Hisuian Snow, and its poster suggests its first episode will drop in May. Right now, the miniseries is expected to have three episodes, but that could always be extended. It all depends on the fandom's reaction and whether the Hisui region has other stories to explore.
Of course, fans know from Pokemon Legends: Arceus that the Hisui is ripe for the picking. It has already given netizens an incredible amount of lore, and fans are already asking for more titles like it. The Pokemon Company is too busy with its next mainline generation to heed those pleas, but it can order an anime to satisfy fans in the meantime.
