Good news, Pokémon fans: Pokémon TV is back.
Pokémon TV, the app and website that lets you watch episodes of the full-length Pokémon anime for free, was removed from the app stores earlier this year, but has now returned, albeit in a new home on YouTube and with a truncated library.
“Welcome to the official Pokémon TV YouTube channel, where you can explore the world of Pokémon with Ash and Pikachu!” announces the channel description. “Experience some of the most iconic moments from your adventure with our full episodes, live streams, compilations, and much more!”
Right now, only nine episodes of the first season are available, but the playlist itself apparently contains 16 other unreleased videos, so it looks like more episodes are on the way.
The app's removal in March was especially disturbing given that after that point, Pokéfans were unable to follow the saga of Ash Ketchum, and beyond, without needing to subscribe to a streaming service.
Now, however, it looks like Pokémon has found a new home where fans can once again follow Ash for free.
In related Pokémon news, Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket is believed to have grossed over $200 million during its first month of release.
The mobile card game managed to reach $208 million in gross revenue on November 29. That's roughly £164 million for those of us here in the UK, and that figure applies to both the App Store and Google Play. The report also says that Pokémon TCG Pocket players' average daily spending was $6.5 million during its first month.
