Netflix has announced that it will be bringing the Pokémon anime to the streaming service later this week.

From March 1st, subscribers in the UK, Ireland, and North America will have access to the complete first season of the classic animation - Pokémon: Indigo League - and the later Pokémon Black & White season.

In addition, two Pokémon movies - Pokémon the Movie: Black — Victini and Reshiram, and Pokémon the Movie: White — Victini and Zekrom - will also be available to stream.

Nintendo gamers are probably no strangers to Netflix, with the service available as a free app on both Wii and Wii U.
