Twitch to marathon every episode of the Pokemon anime
Those that watch the streaming service, Twitch, are likely familiar with certain marathons of shows that Twitch tends to run, such as Bob Ross or Doctor Who. Now, the latest addition to that lineup will be the entirety of the Pokemon anime series. All 932 episodes will be consecutively streamed, spanning the 19 season history of the nostalgic Pokemon cartoon. 16 of the series' movies will also be shown, as well. With nearly a thousand episodes to get though, this marks the longest Twitch marathon event so far. A mini-game will also be featured, through the use of the Twitch Presents: Pokemon Badge Collector extension, which will allow viewers to "catch" Pokemon onscreen at certain times, to earn points. Twitch Presents Pokemon will begin on August 27, at 10 am PT, and will air Mondays through Thursdays on the twitchpresents channel. Pokemon movies will also be streamed on the same channel, at the same time, on Sundays. Alternate channel twitchpresents2 will show re-runs of that week's episodes, on Fridays and Saturdays.
