Pokémon Anime Debut Ambassador:
ShoPro published a press release on March 22nd, 2024, announcing the new chapter "Terastal Debut" and also that Hikaru Takahashi-san had been appointed Pokémon Anime Debut Ambassador.

A comment from Hikaru Takahashi:
When I was initially appointed Pokémon Anime Debut Ambassador, I just wondered what on earth that meant (laughs). However, I'm actually completely obsessed with the Pokémon anime myself, so I'm really happy to have been given such a perfect assignment, and I really want to make the Pokémon anime community grow so that everyone can enjoy the new chapter Terastal Debut!

I'm currently in my twenties, so it's been a while since I watched the Pokémon anime as a child, but I still regain that same thrill from the show I had back then when I watch it nowadays! There is this certain excitement you can only get from this anime, no matter how old you are! I want to show off the Pokémon anime's appeal specifically so that I can share that with sensation as many Pokénds as possible!
