**Pokémon Violet** (Japanese: **ポケットモンスター バイオレット** *Pocket Monsters Violet*) is an anime based on the game of the same name. It was released exclusively on Netflix, Disney+, and Amazon Prime.

## Synopsis

*After a traumatic experience that leads to the death of her mother, 13-year old Kimberly falls into a deep depression and decides to live on exile. Unable to deal with the loss, the teenage girl leaves her older sister to travel the Pokémon world in hope to find a purpose. This traveling, however, only eventually leads her to another terrifying incident that results in her falling into a coma and almost losing her life.*

*Two years later, Kimberly, now 15, finally wakes up in the Paldea region, but she can no longer remember anything other than her name. A young girl named Nemona (re)introduces her to the world of Pokémon, and after a battle between a Sprigatito that Kimberly takes in and a Quaxly whom Nemona just obtained, the Trainer of both it and a Pawmi notices that despite her amnesia, her new friend is showing signs of depression. Not wanting to leave her helpless, she decides to enlist help from the Uva Academy in order to help her overcome her depression and recover her memories.*

*Everything, however, soon changes when Kimberly meets the Legendary Miraidon...*

## Trivia

* This is the first project made by CheerfulSteekip...
	+ Where one of the central protagonists (in this case, Kimberly) suffers from both an illness (in this case, amnesia) and a severe bout of depression.
	+ Where the designs of the supporting characters are revealed in magazine leaks *before* the main characters. This was done to make to make many fans think the main characters may have an important and special role.
* Unlike the original fandub...
	+ Nemona obtained her Pawmi *before* her Quaxly.
	+ Kimberly is somehow able to understand Pokémon speech after encountering Mirako for the first time.
	+ Any time Kimberly Teralizates any of her Pokémon, she herself transforms into her Tera Power form.
	+ What happened during the first few days of school is revealed (PV04 - PV12).
	+ A young boy named Percy joins Kimberly on her adventures, averting Arven being the One Guy.
		- It is revealed that Percy is one of Kimberly's classmates, and lives next door of her dorm. In addition, his parents were divorced and his father passed away because of it.
	+ The heroes sometimes attend classes in a few episodes.
	+ Flora ends up resisting to evolve the episode after the first Gym Battle, and Nemona later gives her Trainer an Everstone for the Grass Cat to hold onto.
	+ Penny ends up becoming Percy's girlfriend, while Arven eventually discovers that he developed feelings for Kimberly, causing the two of them to become a couple at the end of Season 5.
		- Like in *Tales of Harmony*, Nemona and Arven end up becoming Platonic Life-Partners.
	+ The post-game content is adapted. However, before that, the heroes have to take their mid-term exams.
	+ After the season adapting the post-game content is completed, there is a seventh and final season, which takes place a month after its events. However, what it focuses on is currently unknown - other than the fact that Kimberly "will find the kind of 'treasure' she truly has" and the fact that the heroes will take their final exams.
