FEATURE: The Pokémon Anime Is Still Important To The Franchise 25 Years Later

Image
  On April 1, 2022, the  Pokémon anime turns 25. For two-and-half decades, adventures of the eternally youthful Satoshi/Ash Ketchum have delighted veteran fans and newcomers alike. Many franchises go on to have TV adaptations, especially ones aimed at children.
