There is plenty of Pokemon-centric media for fans of the series to enjoy, from video games to comic books and TV shows. Today, The Pokemon Company released the Pokemon TV app for the Nintendo Switch.
Available on mobile devices as well as the Switch, the Pokemon TV app is an all-in-one service that allows fans to watch all sorts of different Pokemon media in one place. The app has been available for mobile download since 2019, however, today it finally launched on the Switch as a free download.
The Pokemon TV App is full of Pokemon content ranging from full seasons of the anime to shorter, five-minute Pokemon Kids TV episodes that feature things like fun dances and lullabies. While not every episode of the show is available, the app has episodes from 11 seasons ranging from the very first episodes of the Indigo League to more recent episodes from Pokemon Journeys.
Although not everything is entirely up to date with the most recent episodes of the Pokemon anime, there’s plenty of content available to get fans started. The Pokemon Company updates the content on the app periodically, so there’s frequently new content to check out when the app is opened.
Fans of the Pokemon video games and TCG are able to enjoy the app as well as it features recordings of events such as the Pokemon Players Cup 1, 2, and 3 as well as the Pokemon World Championships 2019. For those looking to get into the Pokemon trading card game, the app also features videos that serve as tutorials for deck building and tips and tricks taught by popular Pokemon card players.
Unfortunately, Pokemon cards have been notoriously hard to purchase due to an unprecedented rise in demand for new cards. While that may be a detractor for new fans of the game, hopefully, the easy-to-follow tutorials featured on the Pokemon TV app can still guide fans who’ve managed to buy new packs.
There has been plenty of Pokemon news over the last few months as The Pokemon Company gears up to release Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl. The remakes are giving fans a taste of the Sinnoh region introduced in the original Diamond and Pearl DS games before Pokemon Legends: Arceus releases. The game is something of a prequel to the entire series and is also set in the Sinnoh region. Luckily, however, fans looking to brush up on the anime that follows Ash and Pikachu’s journey through Sinnoh can watch all four seasons on the Pokemon TV app.
The Pokemon TV App is available now on mobile and the Nintendo Switch.
