      Full of love and emotion

      1 of the beat Pokemon movie I ever seen.

      Pikachu disappears soon after he is crowned as the Wave Leader Hero, along with Satoshi. When Lucario is released from the prison, he has to locate Pikachu and unearth the mystery of the Wave Leader.

      Best Pokémon Movie Yet

      This was a fantastic movie. The subplots were fantastic, the music was inspirational and phenomenal, and the song 'Advanced Battle' was also not half bad. There were a couple of things changed in the dub that I did not like, but it was still pretty good. The worst thing about this movie though, is Lucario's VA. In the original, they made Lucario sound like a noble,medieval, sensitive, ninja (which he is), but in the dub, they made him sound like a constantly angry monster. Lucario is no monster! He has feelings too! Anyways, if you've ever liked anything about Pokémon, or are willing to give it a try, then I highly suggest you watch this movie.

      But alas, even though it is fantastic, it is still relatively immature, and is nowhere near as deep as some other movies.

      Why is there so much grunting and moaning in these movies.

      The start of this movie was epic up until Ash came around and he let the corniness begin.

      Mew is just there to cause the unnecessary plot problem. Mew abducts meowth and pikachu and then has the human get almost murdered by the Regi-pokemon. Yet mew plays the victim.

      The girl with the ponytails is only there as a tour guide. She is not essential to anything.

      A wild Bonsly steals food and Brock reacts very upset at it. What does everyone else do? Attack Brock for not showing passive corny behaviour. Lucario takes the food back and the humans say nothing.

      How does anyone write these corny movies/shows without feeling weird or sick?

      Oh gosh and the music is awful. The only good pokemon songs are Gen 1 theme, goodbye pikachu and Gen 1 poke rap.

      Good movie but the passive silly overdone cliché corniness needs to stop.

      Excellent film

      This is easily my favorite Pokemon film in the franchise. Everything from the characters, animation, and effects blend in together amazingly

      Best Pokemon Movie Yet

      I was a little hesitant to watch this movie, after seeing the other Advanced Generation movies (Jirachi, Deoxys). But I'm glad I did. The opening was one of the best introductions I've ever seen to any movie, and the title was just as impressive. I was a little curious as to why the main theme (I'm Unbeatable) was postponed until twenty minutes into the movie, but it went well with that particular scene. And the plot was fascinating, albeit with holes in places. At places, the movie even made me cry--something that hasn't been done since Pokemon Heroes.

      Overall, an enjoyable film. Highly recommended, even to non-Pokemon fans.

      Storyline

      Edit

      Did you know

      Edit
      • Trivia
        This was the final Pokémon film to be dubbed into English by 4Kids Entertainment. The company later went bankrupt in the early 2010s due to an infamous Yu-Gi-Oh! lawsuit. Beginning with the next film, The Pokémon Company International would take over and most of the voice actors would be replaced, much to the disappointment of the fans.
      • Goofs
        Though Erica Schroeder was credited by her "Bella Hudson" alias like the rest of her Pokémon work during the 4Kids era, she is listed in the "Featuring" section of the cast credits (sorted alphabetically by last name) between Sean Schemmel and Rebecca Soler.
      • Quotes

        Ash: [after being headlocked by Lucario] Why did you do that?

        Lucario: You snuck up behind me; that is always a mistake.

        Ash: Hey Lucario, I'm really glad you're coming along to help me find Pikachu.

        Lucario: This Pikachu, are you its master?

        Ash: Master? Are you kidding? No Pikachu and I are best friends.

        Lucario: Friends?

        Ash: If one of your friends was lost, you'd wanna bring 'em too, wouldn't ya?

        Lucario: I don't have any friends and I don't want any.

        [leaves the room]

        Ash: [sarcastically] Nice attitude.

      • Crazy credits
        During the end credits, various scenes depict the following: 1) Ash and company arriving back at the palace, and seeing the picture of Sir Aaron--only now it also depicts Lucario at his side. 2) Them leaving to continue on their journey. 3) Them saying good-bye to Kidd, and Brock crying helplessly. 4) Kidd meeting up with somebody to examine a rare find. 5) Team Rocket following the gang in a river-side city. 6) Sir Aaron and Lucario sharing a chocolate bar (more than likely in the afterlife). 7) Ash, Pikachu, May, Brock and Max continuing on their travels.
