According to the latest leaks for thePokemonanime, fan-favorite character Nemona will be appearing in episode 10. ThePokemonanime series has been releasing new episodes consistently since 1997, though the latest season has been one of the most ambitious to date.ThePokemonanime series initially followed the adventures of Ash Ketchum and his friends throughout various regions in thePokemonworld. WithPokemon: Horizons, the latest season in thePokemonanime series, Ash and Pikachu have been left behind to instead focus onnew characters Liko and Roy. While the latest season of thePokemonanime series is based on thePokemon Scarlet and Violetvideo games, it has yet to bring its main characters to the Paldea region proper or introduce some of the major characters from the games.RELATED:Pokemon Fan Creates Ghost-Type EeveelutionAccording to reputablePokemonleaker Centro Leaks on Twitter, that will change fairly soon. ThePokemon: Horizonsanime has aired four episodes to date, with a fifth episode to air today. The first episode of the series saw protagonist Liko arrive in the Kanto region, but now the characters are working their way to thePaldea region wherePokemon Scarlet and Violettake place. Assuming Centro Leaks' information is accurate, the Paldea region will properly debut come episode 9, with Nemona to follow in episode 10.
Nemona fills the rival role inPokemon Scarlet and Violet, though she is much friendlier than many of the other rivals thatPokemonplayers encountered in past games. Nemona primarily features inPokemon Scarlet and Violet’s Victory Road storyline, and she has proven to be one of the most popular human characters to come out of the new games. It’s possible Nemona’s popularity in thePokemon Scarlet and Violetgames will translate to the anime series, but it’s unclear if she will be a regular character, an occasional guest star, or just there to make a one-off appearance.
The latestPokemonanime series has many questions to be answered besides what kind of role Nemona will play. Abrand-new Pokemon was teasedin thePokemonanime that appears to be related in some way to the new Legendary Pokemon Terapagos, but more details about it have yet to be revealed. Terapagos will be making its video game debut in thePokemon Scarlet and VioletDLC The Indigo Disk, itself the second part ofPokemon Scarlet and Violet: The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero. It’s possible fans will get answers about this new Pokemon in thePokemonanime well before they learn about it in the games, so hardcore fans may want to make sure they tune in.
