Here's what the companies have to say, via the press release: Audiences in the US, Canada, Europe, Latin America and Australia will be privy to the streams, including dubs in French, German, Spanish, Italian and Brazilian Portuguese. The "viewing event" as Twitch and TPCI are calling it, begins with the very first season, Pokémon: Indigo League, on August 27th at 10 am pacific time. The Twitch Pokémon streams will have a unique overlay that lets you collect badges and earn points.
