Aardman- Crafted Pokémon Tales Set in Galar for 2027 Debut
The Pokémon Company revealed details about Pokémon Tales: The Misadventures of Sirfetch'd & Pichu, a stop-motion series produced with Aardman (the Wallace and Gromit studio). Set in the Galar region (the UK-like setting from Sword and Shield), the show aims for a 2027 release, with pilot footage unveiled at Annecy. Aardman describes a hand-crafted, humorous spin on Pokémon, telling stories from the Pokémon’s viewpoint, as director Tom Parkinson and chief creative director Sarah Cox emphasized. The project marks a collaboration that blends Aardman’s stop-motion craft with Pokémon storytelling, with more material expected to follow.
