Pokémon Concierge

The show is wholesome and fun, and given that none of its four episodes passes the 15-minute mark, it’s perfect for a one-hour binge or for doling out over a few days. Half of the enjoyment comes from the story itself, and the other half comes from its stop-motion animation style.

It’s a beautifully animated, breezy watch starring a mix of Pokémon and the humans that love them. .... The show’s high level of craftsmanship makes every small detail worth poring over in awe.

If I have one criticism to lob at Netflix’s Pokémon Concierge, it’s that the first season is too damn short. Just as Haru acclimates to her new role, the first season is over! There’s literally only four episodes of Pokémon Concierge and they all clock in at about 15 minutes in length. On the one hand, that makes the series a powerfully potent cocktail of sweetness. On the other, it leaves you desperate for more.

Given the quality of the production, being left wanting more isn’t the worst thing in the world, but with a show that’s already so light and fluffy, I wonder if the brevity might end up hurting its staying power.

Its narrative might be aimed at its youngest audience members, but that doesn't stop this series from being enjoyed by all ages. Outside of video games, Pokémon Concierge is this franchise's most interesting innovation in years.

Its plot-light premise and gorgeous stop-motion animation do the trick, creating a feel-good story that serves to unload difficult emotions and elevate the spirit.

I enjoyedthis show way more than I should have. Just LOOK at the artstyle and the animation. Sure the plot isn't deep or anything groundbreaking, but thats not the point here. It's humor is actually not bad at all. The episodes arw a perfect, bite sized length that makes it a breeze to watch. And now I can be even more mad at gamefreak for not putting any effort into the actual pokemon games, you know, the main thing pokemon is known for...

Its narrative might be aimed at its youngest audience members, but that doesn't stop this series from being enjoyed by all ages. Outside of video games, Pokémon Concierge is this franchise's most interesting innovation in years with its colorful and unique cast of characters. Like haru or phill or if you want to see the color and beautiful beach rich fill Hawaiiful cast of Pokémon and don’t even get started on psyduck. Seriously. That’s things a charmer to cure everyone’s depression. Even for women and men like me.

Pokemon Concierge is a very whimsical show that uses incredible stop motion animation, paired with a good story, voice acting, and writing. However, it feels like the show ends before it even gets going. It should definitely get a season 2, or more episodes.

The serie is cute and brings a lot of joy from the textures, the quality and the simple but effective messages. It is great to see other other side of our already beloved 1st generation pokémon. The only sad part would be, that it is so short! We would have love more episodes, because the passion for details is 11/10.

Pokémon Concierge Season 2 vuelve con la misma fórmula acogedora que hizo que muchos amáramos la primera temporada: Haru atendiendo al resort Pokémon, nuevos invitados peludos, episodios cortitos, buen ambiente, y cero presión de batallas o villanos. Eso funciona si buscas algo calmado para ver después de un día **** embargo, lo que la temporada intenta aportar —nuevos Pokémon, algunos mini-conflictos, crecimiento personal de Haru— no termina de cuajar tan fuerte como podría. Algunos episodios se sienten como si pusieran “más Pokémon lindos” pero no siempre encuentran la forma de hacer que esos momentos tengan peso emocional. Además, dado que los episodios son breves, hay poco espacio para explorar a fondo lo que se plantea: un ex noviazgo, nuevas responsabilidades, etc.Visualmente sigue siendo un gustazo: la animación stop-motion tiene textura, los diseños son agradables, la sensación general de calma y comodidad está muy bien lograda. Pero para mi gusto, faltó un poco más de contraste, de riesgo, algo que sacuda un poco.
