Netflix’s Pokémon Concierge has a bunch of Pokémon Easter eggs in its design, according to director Iku Ogawa in a new behind-the-scenes clip.
Written by Harumi Doki with concept art and character design by Tadahiro Uesugi, the series is the first Pokémon story told through long-form, stop-motion, puppet animation. It’s all based on a bright and sunny island resort for Pokémon and their trainers, where personalised service per Pokémon is the biggest selling point. And watching the production team at work in Netflix’s clip above is just as magic as the actual series.
In the clip, you can see how the team brought new concierge Haru (voiced by In This Corner of the World‘s Non, dubbed in English by The Boy and the Heron‘s Karen Fukuhara) to life through movement and facial expressions, alongside her Pokémon pal Psyduck. But one of the best bits of the clip is how the team designed the actual resort with little Pokémon design details for viewers to find.
“We used Pokémon as design elements for several items that can be seen throughout the resort,” says Ogawa. “Please keep an eye out for them.”
How to watch: Pokémon Concierge is now streaming on Netflix.
