Pomemon: Path to the Peak follows Ava, a shy young girl and avid Pokemon fan struggling to find acceptance after she and her family move to a new city. Accepting an invitation to join her new school’s Pokemon: TCG club, Ava quickly discovers that she is a natural Pokemon TCG player and, with the help of her family and newfound friends, sets out to win a local Pokemon: TCG event and work her way towards becoming a Pokemon TCG world champion.

While the details of Pokemon: Path to the Peaks’ plot are still murky, the series will undoubtedly focus on Ava’s experiences as she learns the basics of Pokemon TCG while learning to overcome her social anxiety and find the self-confidence she’ll need to become a world-class Pokemon TCG master. Her journey to become the very best like no one ever was will put her at odds with a purple-haired girl with a steely stare, who will likely be Ava’s rival.
