- graycatover 4 yearsI saw this movie it was good but there were some o.p characters if you do not know what o.p stands for it stands for overpowered
- I really want to watch this movie because I am into first generation Pokémon and play some of the old Nintendo and game boy games. And also, it is the first Pokémon movie! The first show of Pokémon came before the movie, and I have already watched it. I am just more curious about the first movie. If you wanted to know where the first Pokémon show was, it is on Netflix. It is called Pokémon Indigo League of you wanted to know👌
- cinnamonroll12over 4 yearsI watched this Movie because I love Pokemon. It was a new movie and I hit play. It is a very good movie, but there is a sad part though. And of course, Team Rocket is still trying to get Ashe's Pikachu. Like come on! One, there are plenty of other Pikachus. And Two, why don't they care about the only Pokemon the can talk!?

- How do you not like muw 😥
- It was a ok movie. I get how it looks bad now but in the past this movie would be awesome. Thanks to @angeltnt for helping me change my mind.
- I don’t think so cheese_awesome, the movie was really good and brought two of the best Pokémon into the franchise. The animation is awesome for a first movie. Sure movies in the future had better animation but think about what the movie did for the community. And Ash dying near the end of the movie made audiences cry. The movie was really good for a first one. And the movie Pokémon the movie: I choose you is considered non-cannon because Ash met two other people instead of Misty and Brock.
- Mewtwo is a clone of mew!
- I know! It surprised me at first too.
