During an Anime Expo press conference on Netflix’s upcoming anime Pokemon caretakeractress Pure Nōnenaka Non, revealed what it was like working on the stop motion anime series and how the warm animation style makes every fan dream Pokemon Resorts were real.
Pokemon caretaker follows a hardworking girl named Haru who works as a concierge at a resort, where she offers hospitality and attends to the needs of tired Pokémon and their trainers. Pokemon caretaker also serves as the first collaboration between The Pokémon Company and the Stop Motion Studio dwarf animation.
“I’m sure we all have [felt like] We’re being bombarded, we’re under pressure, or we don’t want to get up and carry on what we’ve been doing and just give up. But if you see Pokemon caretaker“It’s really therapeutic and makes you want to get the best out of yourself,” Non said. “I wish viewers would see it Pokemon caretaker [and feel like] they can go on.”

A significant experience Non had while recording speaking lines for Haru was being filmed while she mimed the struggles and frustrations Haru endured on the series, allowing her facial expressions and demeanors to be used to convey Animate Haru and add weight to her puppet’s performance.
“When I saw the finished scenes, they were very different from what you would see in 2D, 3D, or CG animation. I was like, “Oh, [stop motion] That’s how you can enjoy Pokémon, too,” Non said. “As I saw [Haru] In action, I felt it was totally believable and compelling.”
Why Psyduck is the perfect companion Pokemon caretaker
Shed some light on her character, Non said that Haru, who often overexerts herself and puts a lot of pressure on herself to meet others’ expectations, learns over the course of the series that it’s okay to make mistakes and not be so hard on yourself. On this journey of personal growth, she is aided by the camaraderie of Psyduck, the Pokémon she meets at her new job at the resort.
“When I was playing Pokemon Mewtwo has been my favorite character in many games. But when I started working Pokemon caretaker“Psyduck in stop motion animation… he’s just so adorable,” Non said. “Because he’s so cute, he’s my favorite right now [Pokémon].”
Although Psyduck serves as Haru’s companion in the anime, Non assured fans that they will see other Pokémon as the series progresses.
Pokemon caretaker is scheduled to premiere on Netflix in December.
