Pokémon: The Origin Anime Announced, Premieres this October


To premiere this October 2nd, Pocket Monsters: The Origin will feature the characters from the original Pokémon Red & Green Nintendo Game Boy video games. A promotional video had also been released showcasing scenes from the anime special.


The anime's main character is named Red while his rival is Green, both are named after the original game's default player names. Professor Okido (Professor Oak), Gym Leader Takeshi (Brock), Red's mother, and Team Rocket are scheduled to make an appearance. Also featured in the promo are the Pokémon Hitokage (Charmander), Ishitsubute (Geodude), Kamex (Blastoise), Lizardon (Charizard) and Shiten'nō (Elite Four) member Wataru (Lance).

The story is set in the Kanto Region, the first region to be featured in the Pokémon game franchise. Here, in the fierce battle with Team Rocket's leader Sakaki (Giovanni), Red will encounter a strange Pokémon. Who could it be?!

Pocket Monsters: The Origin anime special will air on October 2nd.

    I'm not crazy right?

    The narrator's the same guy who did the voice effects for the DecaDriver and DiENDriver right?

    It's sounds really similar if you listen to the trailer and listen to DiEND's henshin sfx.

    yeah, the narrator is the voice of the decadriver.


  4. So the concept is like the Pokemon Adventures manga only with a different story?

  6. Anon2: You're not the only one. It DEFINITELY sounds like the Deca-/DienDriver guy.

    "DIEND!"

    @Anon2

    Maybe Charizard can perform a Final Attack Ride? ;)

    Anyway, this anime is loooong overdue. I'm excited for it.

    FINALLY A POKEMON ANIME BASED ON THE GAME!!!

    Finally......the true pokemon.
    This how the pokemon should be, the one which based from the original game we loved.No sucks anti ageing, Ass Ketchum in it, who mostly using illogical battle strategy or choose non effective type/attack pokemon against his opponent super effective pokemon. (Pikachu vs Onix, win with electricity attack) wtf..

    I hope they also make the animation for gold/silver series with different main character and at the some point they meet Red and they have a battle against him.
    That would be awesome!!!...

    No love for Leaf and Bulbasaur?

    From all my expectations for a rather serious Pokemon anime (Pokemon adventures/special, Black2 & White2, RE:burst), something looking like "this" wasn't in my bind... but, if this will be a regular franchise, it will stab the actual pokemon series right into the *ss.

    I could have sworn Red's rival was Blue and not Green

    Sounds interesting, but Charizard will be the main pokemon. Cue genwunners squeeing.


  15. Kamen Leaf Says:

    First two pokemon games released in japan was Red and Green.

    Blue is just a updated version with better sprites and is the engine English Red also used, anyway, so in most english speaking countries its Red Vs Blue while in Japan its Red Vs Green.


  16. Anon @5:32AM

    All Gary counterparts have always served as the rival in the Kanto series and his name Green in the Japanese manga. In America they called him Blue because the game was released with Red back in the 90s. This was "corrected" when FireRed and LeafGreen came out. Blue was the girl that Jake is calling Leaf.
