Just saw this last night. Its like Pok'emon's Ultimate Universe. More accurate to the games,huh? Definitely interesting. Gary chose Squirtle i this version as well. That is one I would have chosen. Anyway, we see Brock,Lance, and Giovanni along with Gary/Blue and Oak. Definitely worth a watch. Wonder what brought on this mini-series? It will be interesting to see a miniseries go through the original games.

I think a mini series based on ruby and sapphire would be epic.

For the last time this is a movie, only the dub is splitting it into 4 episodes.

This is not a series. If we get another movie it will probably cover the Gold/Silver games, and maybe a Hoenn one after that. But for right now this movie is all there is.

For a guy who's wrong all the time you sure do get annoyed by people being mistaken about something.

Because people need to stop acting like the regular anime with Ash is getting replaced by this new one, it's not. They already revealed the XY anime with Ash, Team Rocket, and 3 new travel companions.

This is a standalone movie. If they make another one it'll probably cover the other generations and those new protagonists.

The regular anime has just reached its 800th episode. It's hard to believe the Pokemon anime has gone on 800 episodes with Ash as the main character with the same setup from the start.

Maybe, but there is something classic about Kanto. I would not mind Hoenn games adapted either. Would not care beyond that though. I am curious if Red will beat the Elite Four or how it will be resolved. Its cool they are making a sort of thank you to us adults who were ther at the beginning.

This is clearly not going to replace the anime which is fine by me, but I do hope it's successful and we get one on other gens. I do think it's probably four OVA'sj sewed together as a movie from the way that Pokemon TV is splitting it up while the story obviously continues it has a somewhat of a conclusion in each part. I'm guessing Part 1 will cover the beginning and exploring the world and go all the way up to defeating Brock after that the next two episodes will deal with getting the rest of the world/gym badges/team Rocket and see Ash's team grow and the last episode will be Elite 4/Mewtwo. It probably won't cover the Sevii islands but not that important. I think four episodes for the original game is probably good but they might be rushing a lot if they try to do the other games that actually have a beefier story.

One for each gen would definitely be awesome. The animated trailer for BW2 was stellar.

True, but I wonder if they'll do it. Kanto/Gen 1 gets the special treatment because it was the start of the franchise. The other gens will never have that level of importance.

Also I'm sure this movie costs a lot to make, so I'm not sure if they'll just randomly cover the other gens.

Just watched it, pretty good

it is what you expect it to be, highlight major parts of the game and gives you a summary of the other parts/filler

what it does hit is

Spoiler:

Red vs Brock
Lavender Town
Vs Giovanni (silph co) and Vs. Giovanni (Gym)
vs Green
Vs Mewtwo (which we get Confirmation that Mr. Fuji created him...and also we see-

Spoiler:
Mega-Charizard X

So they just had to stick an XY advertisement in this instead of keeping it a strictly Gen 1 special? Why am I not surprised?

You expected anything different?

not like it took anything away from it

thing is post game of Red and Blue is so blank, you could of done anything with it...could of had him finding a Chikorita and it would of made just as much sense

hell, I'm just glad Red didn't throw a Master Ball at Mewtwo and be done with it

No, I'm basing my assumption on that it's only an hour and 49 minutes, last I heard.

I am aware of the inclusion of Charizard, as well as the appearances of Lance and Giovanni (how they're implemented, exactly, I'm not sure). But there's no way they could cram more than one gym battle unless they gloss over all the stuff that comes before Brock's gym (and stuff that happens in-between gym battles).

My main point is that this can't contain the entire story of Red's journey unless it's incredibly abridged to the point of synopsis (and if you didn't understand that that was my point, then you've completely misinterpreted my post). You can go ahead and believe it'll have all 8 gym battles, taking down Team Rocket, the Elite Four battles, the final battle with Green, and everything that comes in-between the battles if you want... but I think it's pretty ludicrous to expect that to happen in an hour and 49 minutes and still be coherent.

The special actually wasn't as enjoyable as I thought it would be. It was obviously very rushed trying to cram the whole Kanto game into a 2 hour thing, but even still.

You act as though you have seen it. Has it even been released in Japan yet?It will not air dubbed until November 15th.

What is up with Squirtle kissing Charmander's cheek to beat him in battle?
