>"Pokémon" celebrates 20 years on the air this year. It appears the show is heading in a new direction with the episodes airing this September. We've had producer Shuichi Taguchi tell us a bit about what the classic characters that will appear one after another in this story will be doing.
>Q: Kasumi and Takeshi will be appearing for the first time in many years in the episodes airing September 14th and September 21st.
>A: This is the 20th anniversary of the show, a year to remember, so we wanted to do something nice for all the fans that have been supporting us since day 1. Kasumi and Takeshi are also characters we'd like the children that learned about Pokémon more recently to be familiar with, so we had them appear in the show.
>Q: "Sun & Moon" has a lot more comical depictions than the earlier TV series had.
>A: Each of the series have a different art style to them, but it might be true that Sun & Moon's style is overly different from all the others. Kasumi and Takeshi have appeared throughout the show all the way from the very first series, so we took great care in working out how to draw them without making them look out of place in this particular show. This purely relates to character design, though, personality-wise they're the same as always: Takeshi loves beautiful ladies and Kasumi is a cute and lively tomboy.
