Pokémon Master Journeys: The Series Announced To Premiere This Summer

Pokémon Master Journeys: The Series, season 24 of the fan-favorite animated video game adaptation, will premiere this summer in select markets.

The Pokémon Company International has officially announced that Pokémon Master Journeys: The Series will debut sometime this summer. The story centers on Ash Ketchum and Goh as they continue their journey catching and battling Pokémon from Kanto to Galarto, support research for the Cerise Laboratory, climb the ranks of the World Coronation Series, and search for the legendary Mew. The long-running animated series is based on the Nintendo-published game franchise of the same name and first debuted in 1997.

The animated Pokémon series has had quite the interesting rollercoaster ride across its 24 years on the air, broadcasting across seven different networks before landing at its current homes of Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and Hulu in the United States, and select other regions. It’s also broadcast on Teletoon in Canada. Season 23, Pokémon Journeys: The Series, marked the first not to air on a conventional broadcast network in the U.S. in the show’s history. The series is also generally considered to be one of the most successful video game adaptations of all time, with over 1,000 episodes aired and four spin-offs premiering at various stages.
