Trailer For Japan’s Live-Action Pokemon Series PACK YOUR POCKET WITH ADVENTURE — GeekTyrant
Oct 12, 2023

The Pokemon Company has released the first trailer for a new Pokemon-inspired live-action drama series Pack Your Pocket With Adventure, and it’s going to deliver a new and different take on Pokemon. The series is set in the real world and it follows a young woman named Madoka Agaki “who grew up in Masshiro, a port town in the Kanto Region of Japan. After graduating from local university, Madoka starts working at a company that makes fish paste, but her long-held aspirations to one day be a creator leads her to start working at a small ad agency in Tokyo called ADventure.”Madoka came to the big city with lofty dreams, “but it turns out that real life isn’t so easy…her days end up being completely different from the sparkling wonderland she had envisioned. And if that wasn’t enough, she’s assigned to give a presentation at work that’ll decide the fate of the very company itself!”Don’t worry, we’re getting the Pokemon part… “One day, Madoka receives a package from her mother who’s still back home. Inside is the Game Boy Pocket she used to play with as a kid and her copy of Pocket Monsters Red… And so she starts playing Pocket Monsters Red for the first time in 20 years. And the game seems like it’s jam packed with the things that make life so important!? It’s here that the curtains rise on the world’s very first “Pokémon Human Drama,” a show where its main character learns and grows through Pokémon!”It actually looks like it will be a charming show! Not really what you’d expect from the Pokemon brand, but I dig it. They are doing something different and unique. Described as a human drama, this Pokemon live-action series is a first for The Pokemon Company. It will bring Madoka to life with Nanase Nishino’s help as the former Nogizaka46 member is now an award-winning actress. Pack Your Pocket With Adventure currently has no plans to air or stream outside of Japan, but I hope that changes soon.
