Pokemon Ultimate Journeys Shares First Trailer, Release Info

Pokemon Journeys is getting ready to tackle its climax in Japan, and to the surprise of no one, fans overseas have been waiting for an update on the anime’s global drop. It has been some time since Netflix shared any new episodes of the anime stateside, but that will all change this year. A new report has gone live from The Pokemon Company, and it confirms Pokemon Ultimate Journeys is on its way!

“The stakes are higher than ever for Ash, Goh, and Chloe as they advance toward their goals in the upcoming Pokemon Ultimate Journeys: The Series. Season 25 of the animated series is set to premiere later this year on Netflix in the US,” the company revealed today in a new statement.

As you can see below, the official trailer follows Ash Ketchum and Pikachu as they continue their travels from region to region.

With Goh and Chloe at his side, Pokemon Ultimate Journeys will reunite Ash with some much-missed fans, and you can learn more about the comeback thanks to its official synopsis:
