A Sneak Peek at Pokémon
From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
A Sneak Peek at Pokémon is the name of an English-language promotional video issued in limited quantities prior to the debut of the Pokémon franchise in the United States.
The video was basically a "teaser" for many elements of the franchise, most notably the anime. In addition to anime footage, the video also included live-action footage of exclusive characters said to be "friends and family" of the anime's main cast.
Due to the limited quantities, many people didn't know the promotional video existed until it was leaked into two parts on Youtube and other video streaming sites, followed by people promoting it online.
