Pokémon Concierge

Gorgeous stop animation Pokemon! What could you ask for more?

It looks amazing. The pokemons are so cute and the stories are so relaxing. I ended up watching the english dub just to hear the english pokemon's name.

I do wish the series is longer but I understand how difficult and time consuming stop animation is. Everything for me was perfect. It is a nice relaxing story, perfect for kids and adults.

There is no battle, just pokemon and humans living together, trying to find themselves in this gorgeous looking holiday island.

I do hope there will be a sequel for this. I want to see more Pokemon and more slice of life stories. Maybe they should make more of that camping commercial too. I would love to see it.

I had the opportunity to revisit the Pokémon universe with my little cousin, and at 31, I found myself utterly captivated by the enchanting world once again. The animation is nothing short of spectacular, bringing to life the beloved characters in a way that both kids and adults can appreciate.

While the storyline may be concise, its simplicity adds to its charm, making it a perfect watch for all ages. What struck me the most were the profound life lessons subtly woven into the episodes. One particular piece of wisdom resonated deeply with me: "Don't search for something you're good at; search for something that makes you happy." It's a message that transcends age, offering genuine and timeless advice.

The overall experience felt like a warm hug for the soul. The nostalgic trip down memory lane coupled with the modern appeal of the animation made it an absolute joy. I wholeheartedly recommend this series to anyone seeking not only a delightful escape into the Pokémon world but also a gentle reminder of the simple yet profound lessons that bring happiness to our lives.

Beautiful stop motion animation. This has a special warmth about it that I, personally, don't find in the original cartoon. I always connected with the cards but struggled a bit with the animated series.

I loved the breadth of pokemon we see in a few short episodes. The sounds and dialogue are less grating than typical anime genre shows. The stories could mature a bit. But overall they created a world that was creative, comforting and a feast for the eyes.

. I love this visual addition to the Pokeverse. I'd love to get to know the characters even more. I hope for more episodes with expanded storylines soon!

Well this was certainly very different but I was charmed almost immediately by the felt, you know the fuzzy part of some of the Pokemon, made me wanna reach right out and pet them! I thought the first episode was a little slow but that was fine because it was an establishing episode, we're meeting this new character who's not a trainer, nice refreshing change, and the animation was so terrifically different and bright and cheerful, but it's quite visually loveable and it gets to the heart of the matter quite gracefully, I really loved the lessons that it had to tell were done in a really subtle kind of way that wasn't too overbearing and they didn't have to yell it out loud to you, saying stuff like you may not be perfect or the best at swimming or whatever but you're still special just like you are, you don't have to be, I loved the episode with the Magikarp that lost its rubber swimming ring, and the thrilling ride on the Dragonite, I don't think I've ever seen the Pokemon look so cool and loveable and just, gracefully dragon-like in flight before, and it had a Snorlax too, which is a big plus because he's my favourite he just does his own thing lol. This was very nice indeed and mellow and just a lot of simple wholesome fun, it's cool to see Pokemon in a different way than battling, just a very nice surprise, I thought it would be for babies going by how it looked in the first images I saw, but I was very intrigued just the same and it didn't disappoint. This really cheered me up, it was possibly the most genuinely sweet thing I've seen in ages! Wonderful, what a little joy of a show. I already want more! 💓

As a lifelong Pokémon fan, I've always wanted a show like this: a piece that explores the relationship between people and Pokémon in a casual setting. The GameCube's Pokémon Channel was really the first and only time I remember. Pokémon Concierge is a short but delightful slice of Pokémon media. There's no thrilling battles here. Instead we get Haru, a down-on-her-luck office employee who takes a job at the Pokémon Resort for a change in scenery.

The series artfully blends cute Pokémon visuals with stories about how Haru helps Pokémon and in doing so learns a little about herself. At around 60 minutes total runtime, it's a must-watch for ANY Pokémon fan, regardless of age.

If I had one nitpick it's that the first episode is far weaker than the following three as it serves as mostly introduction.
