The episode ‘Enter Pikachu’ serves as a prequel to the original series, showing how Pikachu became a Pikachu after being born as a Pichu.
The first episode of the new Pokémon anime series, Pokémon Journeys: the Series, has been uploaded to the official Pokémon YouTube channel in both the United States and the rest of the world.
The episode itself is dubbed – sorry subbed fans – but is available for free, no Netflix account required!
