Just in time for catch-up viewing over the holiday break, The Pokémon Company International is offering even more accessible ways to enjoy Pokémon entertainment content.
Starting today, fans and those looking for a fun family-friendly activity this festive season can watch full episodes of the original Pokémon animated series — featuring the iconic Ash Ketchum and his Pikachu — on the brand-new Pokémon TV YouTube channel. The new channel will offer select Pokémon entertainment content at no cost, making it easy and accessible for fans around the world to watch Ash and his Pikachu’s adventures.
The channel has launched with the first batch of episodes from the brand’s debut animated series, Pokémon: Indigo League (1997). The series follows the adventures of 10-year-old Ash as he sets out from Pallet Town to pursue his dream of becoming a champion Pokémon trainer, exploring the world, making new friends and discovering new types of Pokémon with his strong-willed Pikachu by his side.
Fans can also catch up with the latest animated Pokémon adventures by streaming all of Season 1 of Pokémon Horizons: The Series — the first in over 25 years to introduce a new cast of characters in the franchise — on Netflix, ahead of the Season 2 premiere on February 7, 2025.
