Rating: TV-PG | Platform: Disney+

Haru and friends return to provide Pokémon and trainers alike a fantastic vacation. If you’ve watched the show or read my review of part 1, you’ll know that “Pokémon Concierge” is by nature a light-hearted, comfortable show, and part 2 is no different. The episodes are short and sweet, and filled with fun references for Pokémon fans to spot and enjoy. The stop-motion animation remains top-notch. The artistic flair of clay and cloth fits the series like a glove, giving the titular pocket monsters life and vitality that has been missing from the mainline video game entries for years. None of the problems are solved alone. The best solutions are found by collaboration and using the unique skills of the Pokémon and staff that occupy the concierge. Likewise, the body of Christ works best when it works together: “Above all, keep loving one another earnestly, since love covers a multitude of sins. Show hospitality to one another without grumbling. As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace” (1 Peter 4:8-10, ESV).

After their adventure to the center of the earth, Diego and crew embark on a new adventure amidst the dark and dangerous ocean depths. Might be worth a watch if you are a fan of the Verne universe. The series is in Spanish; however, English dubbing and subtitles are available.
