Pokémon se asocia con WildBrain para transmitir primero 22 Temporadas de anime

A principios de este año en marzo, The Pokémon Company called time on Televisión Pokémon, with the service no longer available on the app, browsers, or devices like the Nintendo Switch.

While it seemed like it might be done with this sort of service, it appears WildBrain – un “global leader in kids’ and family entertainment” – has now been selected by TPC as the “only distributor of the “single-IP Pokémon FAST (free ad-supported television) canal”.

It will be made available in the US and will follow with a release in Canada, el Reino Unido, Australia y Nueva Zelanda – with the deal allowing fans to watch the first 22 seasons of the anime television series. Here’s a bit more about this partnership, courtesy of the official PR on WildBrain’s website:
