Pokemon Horizons Episode 51: Release date, where to watch, preview, and more

Pokemon Horizons Episode 51 is set to debut on May 24, 2024, in Japan, entering the next phase for Liko, Roy, and Dot as they make their way back to Naranja Academy after passing their Terastal Tests. However, the kids have to file their reports on observing wild Pokemon, and shenanigans are sure to ensue. But how can fans watch the new episode since it airs in Japan first?

There are a few options to consider, but it's recommended that viewers utilize a VPN for both of them for privacy considerations. Plus, one method that will be examined will essentially require watchers to use a VPN unless they happen to be residing in Japan. Additionally, it doesn't hurt to examine the Pokemon Horizons Episode 51 preview for a sneak peek at what's ahead for our heroes.

When it comes to catching new episodes of Pokemon Horizons, there are a few options at play depending on how long fans would like to wait to watch the episode. The first will require viewers to use a VPN to set their region to Japan and use a Prime Video subscription to access Prime Video Japan where new episodes are uploaded shortly after their local airdate.

The downside of this option is that episodes available on Prime Video don't offer translated subtitles, so viewers may not get the full experience they're hoping for. Fortunately, there's an alternative if fans are willing to wait a few days for the Pokemon community to work their magic.

Specifically, on the Sunday/Monday following a new Pokemon Horizons episode's airing, fans typically provide translated subtitles to various third-party anime streaming sites. As previously noted, you should use a VPN when seeking these sites out online, but multiple sites can be used safely and securely without any worry of malware.

The Pokemon Horizons Episode 51 preview begins with Liko looking out into the wild while holding her Rotom Phone before she is shown alongside Dot and Roy as the three smile. They think about how they'll document their wild Pokemon report, and Terapagos is seen approaching a pool of Magikarp. Roy is seen holding Fuecoco and standing with his Wattrel as a Kilowattrel flies overhead.

Liko and Floragato are then shown observing what appears to be a Pineco on a tree before the preview switches to show Roy and Fuecoco tripping over a tree root. A group of Toedscool is seen mingling as Liko recoils at something and Floragato raises the hair on its body in a threatening posture, or perhaps distress. Liko and Floragato are then seen on a cliff while multiple Toedscool leap from it.

A massive gust of wind is shown after the Toedscool leap, evoking a look of intrigue on Liko and Floragato's faces. What are these Toedscool up to? Whatever the answer might be, fans will find out for sure when they catch Episode 51 for themselves, on or after the release date on May 24.
