Press Release - POKÉMON ANNOUNCES NEW ANIMATED SERIES ‘POKÉMON: HISUIAN SNOW’

Details Revealed for Three-Episode Web Series Set in the Ancient Hisui Region

BELLEVUE, Wash. — April 26, 2022 — The Pokémon Company International revealed details today about an animated series that will take fans on a new adventure in the ancient Hisui region of the Pokémon world. The web series, originally teased during a Pokémon Presents on Pokémon Day 2022, is titled “Pokémon: Hisuian Snow” and is slated to premiere on May 18, 2022, exclusively on the official Pokémon YouTube channel and Pokémon TV.

The Hisui region was originally explored in the Pokémon Legends: Arceus video game and represents the Sinnoh region of old—before the existence of Pokémon Trainers and Pokémon Leagues. “Pokémon: Hisuian Snow” is a story that takes place during this ancient age when the relationship between people and Pokémon was very different. Aboard a boat bound for the Hisui region, the protagonist Alec reminisces about the first time his father took him there. Over the span of three episodes, “Pokémon: Hisuian Snow” will go into detail about Alec’s stories from the past.

Character Details:

Viewers will meet Hisuian Pokémon and new characters in this limited web series. The Pokémon Company International has revealed initial details of key characters and Pokémon in anticipation of the premiere.

Alec
Alec is heading to the Hisui region in search of medicinal herbs. He is a mild-mannered young man who is studying to become a doctor. As a child, he once accompanied his father on a visit to the Hisui region. He had an adventurous and mischievous side to him when he was a child.

ImageImage

Alec’s Father
Alec’s father is a woodworker. He originally lived in a different region, but recently moved to the Hisui region to procure materials. He came to fear Pokémon after a certain incident.

Image

Zorua (Hisuian Form)
The Spiteful Fox Pokémon who lives in the Hisui region. It is said that the lingering spirits of Zorua who were chased out of their homeland and perished have returned to life in this form, fueled by the power of their malice toward humans and Pokémon.

“Pokémon: Hisuian Snow” is being produced by The Pokémon Company International in collaboration with WIT STUDIO, and episodes will premiere on the official Pokémon YouTube channel and Pokémon TV. Please look forward to more information on additional episode release dates following episode one’s premiere.

Pocket Monsters anime composer Shinji Miyazaki has released a pre-production version of the fan favourite track Oración, from Pokémon: The Rise of Darkrai. This version features accompanying vocals, previously unheard in any media. Mr. Miyazaki is planning to editing more recorded scores to make them playable in a live performance.

Announcement:

I have been involved in composing the original soundtracks for 23 Pokémon movies. (21 films with director Kunihiko Yuyama, 2 films with director Tetsuo Yajima).

When I look back on those 24 years, I feel a little disappointed now. This is because I rarely had the opportunity to enjoy concerts in the same time and space as the soundtrack fans.

So I'm thinking of picking up the major recording scores and editing them little by little. (Editing here means to make the total score playable in a live performance.)

I hope this weel meet the needs of soundtrack fans, even if only a little. If there is any concrete progress, I will let you know.

I also plan to create the following scores
"Canciones de Oración”
This is a tribute to the 2007 movie "The Rise of Darkrai"

Some soundtrack fans may say, "I don't like music with lyrics because they limit the image!" However, I myself was composing with vocals in mind (at the time), and if Director Yuyama had requested music with lyrics, this is what I would have done.
