The bad news? Each of the 18 episodes of Pokémon Generations will be only 3-5 minutes long. That's about an hour and a half of new Pokémon anime, best case scenario. Still, the showrunners promise a lot of content in that time. Generations pledges to visit every region of the Pokémon world to offer a deeper look at the lives of the characters players have come to know and love. If that sounds like a good time, check YouTube at the end of the week: the first episode lands at 9am PT this Friday.
