Pokemon Sun and Moon Exclusive Pokémon and Trainer Customization Trailer September 20, 2016

Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon are still a few months away from release but Nintendo has been consistently releasing all-new footage from the game to hold players over until then.

I know a lot of people were unhappy with how limited the customization options were when they were first offered in Pokémon X and Pokémon Y, so I wonder what those same people have to say about today’s trailer.

Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon are coming November 18th, 2016 exclusively to Nintendo 3DS platforms.

Pokemon Origins Episode 1 Rereleased on Pokemon TV September 13, 2016

Fans of the first generation Pokémon games found a lot to like when Nintendo and The Pokémon Company released the four-part animated series Pokémon Origins in 2013.

Pokémon Origins was a traditionally animated retelling of Pokémon Red and Pokémon Blue updated with new content from the Generation 6 games. All four parts were released for streamthrough the Pokémon TV app for smartphones and tablets just before Pokémon X and Pokémon Y were released, but only for a brief time.

Now, in anticipation for an all new animated adventure, Pokémon Generations, Pokémon Origins is available to stream through the Pokémon TV app. If you are on the fence about giving the app a download you can currently watch the first episode below.

If you like the series so much you would like to buy all of the episodes to watch whenever you’d like for yourselves your options might be limited. As far as I know, Pokémon Origins has not been released on Blu-Ray Disc but it was released in HD on iTunes.
