Pokemon Concierge

When I started watching this I wasn’t expecting much and honestly it didn’t Bring much I like the design of the characters and pokemon especially that some are doll and sewn like and others aren’t it works really well

The show itself is nothing special but was enjoyable and a quick watch too it’s what you’d expect from a. Pokemon mini series I’ve heard season 2 is coming out which is good too so I’ll watch that


It also shows that Pokemon isn’t always about the main series and everything in the franchise can be enjoyed

Overall it was decent nothing ground breaking but exactly ... what you’d expect from a Pokemon mini series

6/10

Y'know what, it's ok. The animation is fucking so beautiful and meticulous, it deserves a recommendation on that alone. Everything looks and is beautiful, and every pokemon is so damn cute. The art is as cozy as the show is, everything makes you feel warm and fluffy. Great show to watch with your parents.

Story wise, it's pretty milquetoast, but it is damn cute. The characters are.... there, and theyre just as cute as the pokemon, and therefore aren't super interesting. But this really didn't need to be a high octane drama, so I can't be too mad. They were serviceable and I was never ... annoyed or pissed off at them making dumb decisions, but I can't say I remember any of their names.

If you're super into pokemon i don't think you'll have any issues loving this, but if you're less into it, like me, it's ok. I would still recommend it as cozy watching. I do want a psyduck plushie now..... Dammit capitalism!!

Yeah, it’s cute. The stop motion looks pretty good, albeit some of the Pokemon themselves only have glued on expression changes. It’s fluidly animated and its human characters look good.

That being said, the narrative is nothing to write home about. Little lessons are learned by our lead each episode as she picks up the concierge craft, but it all feels very safe. I give this some credit for just letting us sit in the Pokemon world for a bit without battles or major stakes, but it feels just like a day in the life of a neurotic young woman as she seeks to fit in ... working in a Pokemon resort. That’s fine, and it does pretty well at it, but that’s a low bar for success. Worth the watch if you like the world (I do, well enough anyway), but nothing special.
