Originally scheduled for release on Netflix in the United States ahead of Pokémon Day, The Pokémon Company International have announced that Pokémon Horizons: The Series will now be making its debut on March 7th, two weeks later than originally scheduled.

The original announcement in November last year stated that the series would be launching in Australia on 9Go! on February 27th, and in Canada on both Cartoon Network and Télétoon from March 2nd. It's unclear at this point if these non-Netflix releases are also being pushed back, or if these two countries will now also be receiving Pokémon Horizons ahead of the United States. The series has already launched in the United Kingdom last December, exclusively on BBC iPlayer and CBBC.

This news follows the recent announcement that The Pokémon Company International's own streaming service, Pokémon TV, will be ceasing operations from March 28th, which has left fans floundering with the Pokémon anime being fragmented between so many different paid subscription services, with no single streaming platform having all seasons and movies available.

Pokémon Horizons: The Series features dual protagonists Liko and Roy, who join together with a group of adventurers known as the Rising Volt Tacklers and set out to travel the Pokémon world with them, visiting all the regions introduced in the core series from Kanto to Paldea. Liko also finds herself targeted by the mysterious Explorers organization, which is after her equally mysterious pendant. For the first time in Pokémon anime history, Pokémon Horizons: The Series features an all-new cast of characters and a more linear plot without many ties to previous anime series.
