The Movies!

There were quite a number of movies featuring the anime, with even a new one coming up fairly soon!

[PokeCommunity.com] The Movies!


Which movie was your most memorable, or favorite to watch, and why?
 
I've watched a good chunk of the movies, and the only one I can recall with good detail is the Darkrai movie; I guess that means it's probably the most memorable one to me. I admit I'm a bit partial towards anything related to Darkrai (it's one of my favorite Pokemon), but I genuinely did like the movie. In particular, I liked the way Darkrai was portrayed. Sure, the age-old trope of "good all along" was put to use for the portrayal; but, with Darkrai, I feel like the trope fit. Darkrai might look like an evil thing, but it actually doesn't mean anyone harm! Even the Pokedex entries say so.
 
Hard to say which one is my favorite but Lucario and the Mystery of Mew is up there for a Generation 3 movie promoting Generation 4 while calling back to Generation 1 with Mew. Another favorite is the Darkrai movie for the simple fact its opening theme is one of my favorite themes with respect to Season openings(Season 11 for the Anime). Finally there is the Diancie movie. As much as the Kalos movies performed poorly, I do like Diancie as a Pokemon and I found it to be the best Kalos movie of the three that were made.
 
I think the first and the one where Lucario was (maybe also forever where celebi was)

Reason: Cause in some of them i almost cried..
 
I did watched some of old Pokemon movies mostly for an Croatian dubbed one and watch newer Pokemon movies everytime when they annouce it.

I am also looking foward to the 1st Movie remake, i wonder plot is going to be different from the 1st Movie right now.
 
Loved them all till the post movie 9. Didn't enjoy a single one till I Choose You. I like how the Gen 7 movies have been done and really hope Movie 22 has more Team Rocket origins focus

I like 90% of the movies. It is hard to choose with so many goodies. But my all-time favorite for now is The Rise of Darkrai. The baron always makes me laugh and the environment and music is so beautiful. Oracion is my favorite pokemon song.
 
Most memorable one was definitely Pokemon Heroes for me. Although o owned the third movie on vhs Heroes was the first one i had on Dvd and hooo boy did i watch that movie often. Still one of my top favorites alongside 2000, lucario, and victini.

There isnt really a movie i downright dislike hahah. I however havent seen the volcanion movie and i fell asleep during Hoopas so while i dont have a solid opinion of the former i suppose if i had to choose a least favorite it would have to be the hoopa one.

Fun fact Ash has been reckless/self sacrificial in these movies at least 80+ times spanning all of them.
 
I really struggle to decide between the first three. I'm going to have to choose the Power of One because everything felt bigger in scale, but Mewtwo Strikes Back and Spell of the Unown are just as awesome.
