A stop-motion Pokémon show is coming to Netflix

Netflix's long-running Pokémon partnership is heading in a slightly unexpected direction. The streaming service has marked Pokémon Day by unveiling Pokémon Concierge, a show featuring stop-motion animation from Japan's Dwarf Studio. The series follows Haru, who joins Psyduck in meeting various trainers and creatures on vacation.

The companies haven't shared the cast, format or release date. The production is "coming soon," Netflix says. However, it's safe to say you can expect a different style and storyline than the usual tales of Ash, Pikachu and crew.
