Hopefully, we will get the protagonists: Gold, Ruby, Diamond, Black, and X; and it won't be just Red in each situation.

These are only 3-5 minute shorts though. Origins had 4 full 22 minute episodes.

I hope we'll have an option for Japanese audio with English subs.

You made a comment saying its the spiritual sequel to Origins. It isn't. These are more in like with the shorts they made for BW2 and ORAS before they came out.

I wish they would have had more Mystery Dungeon episodes. The one where theres no humans and the guy gets turned into a Pokemon. That was cute. I have one of those games.

I lost track of the cartoon. Sometimes Ill watch a random episode which are ok. Kinda hard to get back into it.

It's a sequel to Origins, you can see the character art is similar, the length of all the shorts is basically the length of the origins movie and even the Pokemon youtube page is uploading the Origins episodes leading up to the premier of the shorts. I wonder if we'll get more of these or if they'll only ever do them when a new Gen is going to be released, last time it was for XY and now for SM.

As far as the new season of the Pokemon anime, I'm not a huge fan of the art style but at least they're trying something new so let's see. The ratings haven't been great and this new generation is different so why not try something new?

Both of these shorts were pretty awesome! This and Origins feel like tests to try and get another anime out that's closer to the games than the current one. It's a cool idea because you would have two different shows airing that may appeal to fans with different preferences; one that's light-hearted and the other being a little more grounded. Like how Sonic did this with AoStH and Satam.

At only 3-4 minutes long these shorts are pretty boring, they can't really show much of anything and they skip over all the battles. I'm not sure what the point was.

Origins at least had full 22 minute episodes.

Origins skipped a bunch of stuff and most episodes were a waste that had nothing to do with the game. I much prefer these shorts that tell a cool event and don't stretch it out.

Episode 05: In which the good Detective hangs out with Giovanni's son for a bit.



Episode 06: Time for backstory on the burnt out tower. Kinda sad.... And nope. The legendaries aren't former Evee's.
