    One Of The Best Pokemon Movies I Have Ever Seen!

    I'm still a Pokemon fan & I always will be! Because I grew up with Pokemon when I was little. When I first saw this movie I was like WOAH! This is one of the best Pokemon movies I've ever seen so far. & I had this feeling that I must buy this movie. The best thing I really like about this movie is that the movie followed up on the plot perfectly. The song "Oracion" turned out to be a beautiful inspiration to me. The special effects in 3D turned out great. & best of all it had such a sad but cute happy ending to it. I totally disagree on how the star rating turned out to be. I think this movie deserves something better. I would give this movie an 8.5 star rating. From all the Pokemon movies that I've seen they have been starting to improve quite a bit. Great job! Keep up the good work!

    My favorite Pokemon movie

    Some people don't like Pokemon movies, but for me it's all pretty good.

    For me, this is the most attractive Pokemon movie.

    Watch it when you want to see the big scenes.

    The best Pokémon Movie?

    Yes this is the best Pokémon movie. Now Pokémon movies are not the best movies and have very interesting and bland stories. This story is different. The characters are very relatable and the music ohhh the music. The music in this movie the simply the best and you will get hit right in the feels during this movie. Highly recommend seeing this movie if you are a fan of Pokémon.

    the film can go two ways

    I have been a Pokemon Fan from the start but I was slightly disappointed with this film.

    Many pokemon fan know that 4Kids entertainment had the rights to all pokemon anime/movies how ever it was then taken over by "Pokemon.inc" so the leading roll of Ash ketchum would no longer be played by Veronica Taylor but by Sarah Natochenny (A sound alike vice actor) no offense to Sarah but Veronica was the Voice many people had come to know as Ash's voice. How ever the sound alike sounds NOTHING like Ash, and this movie is the best example of bad dubbing, all the original voices have been changed for the worst except for Jessie (the red headed member of team rocket) who for some reason sounds the same.

    But aside from the voices, the story line and plot of this movie, kept me watching till the end. a nice choice of music for the battling moments,

    The story is set around the time of the Diamond and pearl animes time line, as two pokemon are engaged in a battle caught between space and time, in the mean time ash and his buddies arrive in a new town, where Darkrai ( a pokemon that is cause of your bad dreams ) is bringing chaos to the town and its people. could this be the end of the pokemon world as we know it ?

      During the Oracion end scene, there is a shot of the towers zoomed out with Alice and the gang on the bridge. It shows all the complete features of the tower. However, when the wings show, the "complete" set of flowers and vines disappear

      James: [spying on Ash and co] Say, this balloon thing is catching on.

      Meowth: Like we're gonna catch Pikachu.

      [several aerial Pokemon float by]

      Jessie: More balloons?

      Meowth: Three Drifloon and a Drifblim.

      Jessie: Ah, they're so round and cute. Say, I think they want us to take them for a walk!

      [tries to catch them with a net]

      Jessie: Come... to... Jessie! Will you please stop playing hard to get?

      [the Drifloon and Drifblim expand in size]

      Jessie: What'd I do?

      Meowth: Same thing you always do!

      James: Okay, now. A little humor will go a long way to stop that swelling.

      [the Drifloon and Drifblim expel a whirlwind of air]
