The Pokémon Company International and WildBrain have expanded their FAST partnership, with a Pokémon FAST channel launching on Prime Video in the U.S. and WildBrain gaining additional rights to the franchise.

The new Pokémon FAST channel on Prime Video in the U.S. features the first 25 seasons of the original animated series. WildBrain has also now picked up the FAST rights for three additional seasons and a selection of movies, which it will roll out across the franchise’s existing FAST channels in the future.

This includes Pokémon Journeys: The Series, Pokémon Master Journeys: The Series and Pokémon Ultimate Journeys: The Series.

WildBrain also acquired Pokémon FAST rights for Latin America and will aim to bring channels for the IP to fans throughout the region soon.

“Our expanded FAST partnership with The Pokémon Company International reflects the enduring popularity of this beloved brand,” said Lara Ilie, VP of AVOD and FAST at WildBrain. “As the leader in the kids’ FAST space, we’re thrilled to bring 25 incredible seasons of Pokémon to Prime Video.”
