I think they will air only two episodes and that will conclude their chapter. Maybe we could see more of them if the franchise think about it during the airing of Pokemon the Origins : XY

Well... that's pretty much obvious. Specials have low episode count.
Even 2 episodes is pretty much more than anyone could expect considering almost every special stays on one episode.

I really wish this was the new series instead of just a spinoff. It's the first time I've ever been excited about the Pokemon anime.

I frankly don't know anyone who likes Ash. I know a lot of people who think he'sincredibly annoying. Why do they bother bringing him back...

Guys, saw that on serebii

Within a press release today, it was announced that the upcoming special: Pokémon The Origin is to be in a timeslot from 7pm to 8:49pm on October 2nd. This special features a return to the original narrative and joins Red as he travels through the Kanto region. We'll provide full coverage of this, including pictures, in full upon airing

They don't say if it is for Japan or the US tho. :(

Depending on this special is an hour long, or an hour and a half, I fear the pacing could be rushed, so we may not get to see all the gym leaders and iconic locations. I wonder where Mewtwo will show up: after Red becomes champion like in the games or before?

Yeah, I don't think it will be as good as people may think. That is a lot of info to put in just an hour. Why they didn't break it down into a 5 episode series is beyond me. There is many animes that only have a hand full of episodes.

It is a bit odd to hear Naruto's voice actor in a pokemon anime lol.

I hope Masachika Ichimura for Mewtwo will be in it from the previous movies.

2 hours is 5 episodes.

As for trailer... they simply couldn't omit Gengar x Nidorino battle xD

My reaction in a nutshell. :P

Hopefully they don't pick bad actors though. Anyone but Sarah Natochenny for Red.

The English preview said four episodes. So I'm guessing its two hours with commercials. Either way the fact that its going to be dubbed is exciting which means I don't have to lurk around for a sub and just wait until November to watch it. That way I can also focus on some of the other things I'm looking forward to in October instead of packing this into it as well. I really am excited for this but just soo much stuff this October it's ridiculous.
