We can&#8217;t help but think that this is a good move. After all, when you have journeyed with one hero for almost three decades, it&#8217;s going to take more than a 22-minute introduction to settle in with the new faces.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, the latest trailer is starting to help with that, as we got a slightly closer look at both Liko (&#8220;the girl with the awe-inspiring pendant&#8221;) and Roy (&#8220;the boy with the mysterious Pok\u00e9 Ball&#8221;) and finally got a chance to hear both characters&#8217; voices in action.<\/p>\n<p>There was also a brief snippet of Friede and Captain Pikachu, who we caught wind of last week. It will come as no surprise to hear that Captain Pikachu&#8217;s vocab appears to be just as limited as Pikachu&#8217;s was beforehand. &#8220;Pika-Pika&#8221; isn&#8217;t going anywhere just yet.<\/p>\n<p><!-- cache: html:nintendolife.com\/ssl\/pokemon\/related-articles:145665 @ 2023-03-03T23:30:34+00:00 --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"block object-related\"> <\/aside>\n<p>We still don&#8217;t have an official date for when the series is going to air out West, but we will be keeping our eyes peeled over the series&#8217; premiere for any more information.<\/p>\n<p><em>Will you be tuning in on 14th April?
