A new animated series set in the Pokémon universe has been announced, promising fans a delightful new adventure. Aardman Animation Studio, renowned for its distinctive stop-motion work — including the beloved Wallace & Gromit series — has partnered with Pokémon to create Pokémon Tales: The Misadventures of Sirfetch'd & Pichu. Scheduled to premiere in 2027, this series will bring a fresh, humorous perspective to the Pokémon world.

The teaser released today features Sirfetch’d and Pichu engaging in playful antics, with a calm Wooloo observing nearby — indicating a light-hearted tone that fans can look forward to.

In addition to this exciting announcement, fans received good news about Pokémon Concierge, another stop-motion animated series on Netflix. Its second season is scheduled for release on September 4.

The series follows Haru at her Pokémon resort job and explores relatable crises, including her ex reappearing unexpectedly. With its charming animation style and warm storytelling, Pokémon Concierge continues to win hearts.

While Pokémon Tales aims for a 2027 release, it promises to add a new layer of humour and adventure to the Pokémon universe, appealing to both young fans and nostalgic adults alike.
