Pokemon, Aardman Animation Set to Collaborate on New Mystery Project

The Pokémon Company are teaming up with stop-motion animation studio Aardman for a new mystery collaboration.
Billed only as a “special project,” it’s unclear whether it will be a feature film, series or something else entirely but promises that Aardman will bring “their unique style of storytelling to the Pokémon universe in brand-new adventures.”
It is set to be released in 2027.
“This is a dream partnership for Pokémon. Aardman are masters of their craft, and we have been blown away by their talent and creativity. What we have been working on together ensures our global Pokémon fans are in for a treat!” said Taito Okiura, VP of marketing and media at The Pokémon Company International.
Sean Clarke, managing director of Aardman, added: “It’s a huge honour to be working with The Pokémon Company International — we feel sincerely privileged to be trusted with bringing their characters and world to life in a brand-new way.
