Pokemon the animated series is now available on Hulu for streaming as well as some of the movies and future episodes of spin off anime shows based on the series.

It became official today after an announcement by both the game's creators, Gamefreak, and Hulu. Most of the content requires a Hulu Plus account, but a few of the episodes are available for free stream.

Hulu's first season of Pokemon starts at 10, or the Diamond/Pearl themed part of the show. There is no word on whether the Red/Blue and Gold/Silver era shows will be coming to Hulu as well.

Polygon reported that the first two episodes of Pokemon the Series: XY will also be coming to Hulu.

Pokemon the Series: XY will be the fifth rendition of the popular anime cartoon since its debut in the late 90s, reported Bulbapedia.

The show was first demoed back on October 19 2013 as a sneak peek when the first two episodes were previewed.

The series protagonist, Ash Ketchum, will be returning with his trusty side kick Pikachu to explore the Kalos region of his world. The trio of Team Rocket bad guys, Jessie, James, and Meowth will be returning as well.
