Pokémon Trainer Ash Ketchum has a new plan: see the world! But first, he and his partner Pikachu are headed to the opening of the Cerise Laboratory, a research facility dedicated to uncovering the mysteries of Pokémon in every region. Ash meets Goh, another boy with boundless curiosity about Pokémon, and both are overjoyed when Professor Cerise asks them to become official research fellows.

**to focus on more than two regions.
**It is also the first dub season to air on Pop, a channel owned by Sony Pictures Television, in the United Kingdom. CITV, a channel owned by ITV plc, aired all previous seasons.
**to be focused on journeys instead of having the lyric "Pokémon" in the English opening song's lyrics.
**to be streamed on Netflix exclusively in the United States, instead of airing on television. However, it is still aired on television internationally.
**to feature an episode with two separate sub-segments, in this case Splash, Dash, and Smash for the Crown!, and the second one to feature an episode with multiple segments, after Pokémon the Series: XY Kalos Quest which featured "Lights! Camera! Pika!".
**Where none of Ash's travelling companions are a Gym Leader or Trial Captain.
***Additionally, this is also the first season where Ash travels with one companion, while also not being one introduced in the games.
*In the UK on the POP Player, the series is called Pokémon Journeys: The Animated Series.
