The best Pokémon movie of all times. A perfect blend of funny and moving moments (I admit to crying a lot of times throughout the movie) without overtly simplistic or cliché plots.

the first movie of this franchise that my children marked as well as digimon. I can say that I had the fortune to see it on the big screen and that at that time it marked an era, with a soundtrack that even played on the radio, even knowing that it was a movie directed for a children's audience and with the introduction of one of my favorite pokemon, mewtwo and with a great fight where our protagonist Ash isolates us to believe that he has died.

"We do have a lot in common. The same Earth, the same air, the same sky. Maybe if we started looking at what's the same instead of what's different... well, who knows"

Alongside Simba talking to his dead father, seeing Pikachu trying to wake up Ash who is turned to stone never fails to make me te More
