Dragonite and the Special Delivery Pokemon Anime Episode Debuts in English

Back on Pokemon Day 2025, a “Dragonite and the Special Delivery” anime episode appeared on the Japanese YouTube account, and now it’s available in English too. People can see the almost 14 minute short on the other YouTube channel for the series. Unlike some special releases and anime adaptations, it’s never been available physically.

While Dragonite is of course a fixture here, the star is Hana. She’s adored the Pokemon mail carrier who brings her letters her whole life and wants to do that same job. So much so that she joins the Paldean Post Office as an employee. At the moment, she only sorts mail alongside her partner Fuecoco. When they find a letter with no address, the two get a chance to find out who sent it and where it is supposed to go. 

Here’s the full English version of the Pokemon special episode “Dragonite and the Special Delivery.” If the style looks familiar, it’s because Comix Wave Films previously worked on Suzume and Your Name. 

We’ll need to wait until 2027 for the next mainline entry in the series. That will be Pokemon Winds and Waves. However, while that is still a bit away, Nintendo has teased it. We learned what the starters for it will be, and the main theme song appeared online.
