Hey Pokémon fans! There’s a little change in plans for those excited about seeing Pokémon the Movie: Secrets of the Jungle in theaters across India. The movie was originally set to hit the big screen on October 20, but it’s been delayed by a week. Now, you’ll be able to catch this amazing adventure on October 27. Don’t worry though, tickets will be available for purchase starting October 21, so mark your calendars!
Where to Watch?
The movie will be screened in select cities, including Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Chandigarh, Chennai, Delhi, Hyderabad, Indore, Kolkata, Mumbai, and Pune. So, if you live in one of these cities, get ready for an exciting day at the movies!
What’s the Movie About?
Pokémon the Movie: Secrets of the Jungle, which is the 23rd movie in the Pokémon series, tells the story of a boy named Koko who was raised in the jungle by a Pokémon named Zarude. Koko believes he’s a Pokémon too! But when he meets Ash and Pikachu, he starts to learn more about the human world and faces a new challenge: a dangerous threat to his jungle home.
This story is a bit different from previous Pokémon movies. Instead of focusing on the bond between a Pokémon trainer and their Pokémon, this film explores the life of a human boy raised by Pokémon. It’s a heartwarming and adventurous tale about Koko discovering who he really is.
Already on Netflix
If you can’t wait until October 27, you can still watch the movie on Netflix. It was released there in October 2021. However, seeing it on the big screen with other Pokémon fans can make the experience even more special.

The movie was first released in Japan in December 2020. The team behind the movie includes Tetsuo Yajima, who returned to direct after working on Pokémon the Movie: The Power of Us. He also helped write the script along with Atsuhiro Tomioka, a long-time Pokémon series writer.
The animation was handled by OLM, with Hiroyuki Kato as the animation producer. The character designs and animation direction were led by Hirotaka Marufuji and Yasushi Nishitani. The movie’s music is also fantastic, with Taiiku Okazaki producing the theme song and other songs. You might remember Okazaki from his work on the Pokémon Sun & Moon TV series.
