The Pokemon Company, in partnership with Netflix, have announced that the CGI recreation of Pokemon: Mewtwo Strikes Back, which is known as Pokemon: Mewtwo Strikes Back – Evolution, will be added to Netflix’s ever-expanding streaming catalogue on the 27th February 2020.
Synopsis: When researchers discover and exploit a fossil of the Mythical Pokémon Mew, they unleash a creation that goes against the very laws of nature. The Legendary Pokémon Mewtwo was intended for use as a tool of destruction. But as Mewtwo becomes aware of its own dubious origin, it begins to resent its human creators and seeks revenge…
As per usual a valid Netflix subscription is required in order to view content on the platform. Pokemon: Mewtwo Strikes Back – Evolution was originally released in Japan, and in Japanese cinemas, before being released on home video late last year. The addition of the film to Netflix, and in English (as well as relevant localised languages) marks the films debut outside of Japan.
Pokemon: Mewtwo Strikes Back – Evolution will be available on Netflix from the 27th February 2020 but in the meantime Pokemon: The Power of Us and Pokemon: I Choose You are available on the service alongside Pokemon: Sun & Moon and Pokemon: Indigo League.
