One of the things that The Pokemon Company should be praised for with how it’s handled its franchise is that they’re never afraid to try new things to get attention for its property. One of the best examples of this happens to be with its animated series and shorts. They’ve hired multiple companies, including legendary anime studios, to create special visions of their world so fans could feel “even closer” to it. Today, the company decided to do that once again, as they made “Pokemon Ceruledge: Rumble in the Ruins,” a short video that features the fan-favorite Pokemon going up against a Dragapult!
You’ll immediately notice in the video below that the whole thing is rendered in a nice 3D style. It’s one that feels different from the video games yet still maintains the style that many would expect in certain ways. The animation team did an incredible job here of rendering the fight between Ceruledge and Dragapult, with each side showing off their skills while highlighting the strategy within Pokemon battles. There are also Easter Eggs in the video, such as with an appearance by a Gimmeghoul!
You can check out the whole fight below:
