New Pokémon Stop-Motion Series ‘Misadventures of Sirfetch’d and Pichu’ Streaming on Disney+

The upcoming stop-motion animated series, “The Misadventures of Sirfetch’d and Pichu,” will exclusively stream on Disney+ and DisneyXD, according to a reveal during PokémonXP.

Exclusive Disney+ Streaming Debut

First announced in July 2025, the series follows the Pokémon Sirfetch’d and Pichu as they navigate humorous situations in the Galar region. This marks a significant shift for The Pokémon Company International, as the brand’s previous stop-motion series, “Pokémon Concierge,” was exclusively available on Netflix.

Production Details

The new series is a collaboration between The Pokémon Company International and Aardman Animations, the British stop-motion animation studio behind “Wallace and Gromit” and “Shaun the Sheep.” Approximately 262 people are currently working on the project, with each animator completing roughly 13.5 units of animation per week, resulting in an estimated 110 weeks per episode.

Trailer and Logline

A first animation test featuring Pichu and Sirfetch’d, along with an official trailer, were shown at PokémonXP. The series’ logline describes the protagonists’ “gallant quest to protect Pokémon across Galar,” with challenges, friendships, and laughter along the way. Escavalier will serve as the primary antagonist.

‘Pokémon Concierge’ Renewed

Additionally, “Pokémon Concierge” has been confirmed for a second season, slated to premiere on Netflix this September.
