The latest episode of Pokémon Generations is now on YouTube, continuing the multimedia, $45 billion franchise’s celebration of its 20th anniversary.
Generations is an animated show created for YouTube that shows highlights from the series’ main games. The latest episode features the epic fight through the Elite Four that players remember from the original games, Red and Blue. This is the third episode, following the first two debuting on YouTube last week. Not only is it fun for fans to see these memorable moments animated, but it helps to get gamers excited for the next entries in the franchise, Sun and Moon. Those come out for the 3DS on November 18.
The brand has seen a surge in popularity thanks to Pokémon Go, the mobile game that has been downloaded more than 500 million times in two months and has generated an estimated $500 million in revenue.
