      Incredible sequel to probably the best Pokemon spin off in recent memory. It may not have as much variety with it's animation style and art direction as the original Poketoon had, but it makes up for it with consistently gorgeous visuals and in my opinion, a more heartfelt story to most of the episodes. Eight episodes overall, four of them are wholesome, cutesy type of one minute short content, often in a music video format. While they're all well and good, it's the other four episodes where this series truly shines. A duration of about 10-17 minutes each, they all showcase a specific Pokemon (ortwo) and their various relationships with their partner/friend/acquaintance. Themes of forgiveness, friendship, trust, etc, all cheesy themes when done poorly, but are executed very well here. You rarely see this sort of emotional depth in Pokemon, which is probably why it leaves such a big impact on the viewer, especially if you've been watching Pokemon for as long as I have (25 years). nnI hope to see a third season of Poketoon, and maybe a few more longer length episodes than previous seasons.
