Pokémon: A New Generation (Japanese: ポケットモンスター：新たな始まり Pocket Monsters: A New Beginning) is a 2023 American-Japanese live action/computer animated fantasy adventure film directed by Tetsuo Yajima. It was written by Yuea Uchiyama and Ayaka Sekiguchi, and produced by Shigeru Miyamoto and Kidenaga Katakami, and distributed by Toho. Taking place long after the events of the first nine generations of Pokémon games (Red and Blue to Scarlet and Violet; excluding the Let's Go! games), this movie follows a brand new trio of heroines as they save the world from eternal loss of spirit.

The film was released worldwide on Netflix at February 4, 2023.

Synopsis
''A long time after the disappearance of all Pokémon, the teachings on friendship and harmony have been replaced with paranoia and mistrust, and all the humans live separated from one another. In the Eskaro village of Starset, Karin Petaldream tells stories of many heroes to her young daughter Paola "Pipp," who inherits her dream of reuniting the humans of the world and bringing back the Pokémon. However, Karin never knew that her daughter is special: she was given a gift by the mythical Arceus, but she was never able to figure out what it is.''

''On the day Pipp turns ten, a lost child named Juliana "Julie" Millers wanders into Starset. The town's residents react in panic, believing that Julie is a hostile invader. Pipp, finally given an opportunity to make friends, shelters Julie in her home, and Julie reveals to her that the world is no longer experiencing true spirit following the loss of friendship. Together, they and another lost child named Angelica "Angel" Wingfeather embark on an adventure and travel across the world on a mission to restore harmony to the land. Little do they know, after meeting up with an AI who time-travelled from the past, the girls will have to figure out for themselves what's really going on to save the world...''
