After 25 long years, Ash Ketchum’s journey to become the Pokémon world champion is complete, and his story is drawing to a close. Following the conclusion of the show’s 25th season in March 2023, The Pokémon Company will premiere the next chapter in its 2D-animated franchise’s story worldwide without its iconic trainer or his loyal companion, Pikachu.
The upcoming Pokémon saga (which doesn’t have a title yet) will follow the adventures of a new pair of lead characters—named Liko and Roy in the Japanese broadcast—who travel across the region of Paldea to discover new Pokémon and battle skilled trainers. The anime series will feature new creatures from the 2022 Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet video games, including grass cat Sprigatito, fire croc Fuecoco and duckling Quaxly.

Before the new series debuts, the final 11-episode chapter of Ash and Pikachu’s journey will roll out weekly in Japan starting on January 13. These episodes of Pokémon Ultimate Journeys: The Series will feature a cast of returning monsters and characters, including Ash’s friends Misty and Brock, and it’s also meant to hint at what’s in store for the long-running show’s protagonist after the curtain falls.
The first season of the Pokémon anime series debuted in the US in 1998, and the brand’s content canon now features more than 1,200 main series episodes and 23 feature films. The show currently airs exclusively in the US on Netflix, which has been hungry for more Pokémon content. In August, the streamer purchased global rights to the 2D-animated special Pokémon: The Arceus Chronicles, and it picked up CG-animated movie Pokémon: Mewtwo Strikes Back—Evolution in 2020.
Beyond animation, The Pokémon Company International is also developing an unscripted live-action series based on the property’s long-running trading card game.
