Digitally Remastered ‘Pokémon: The First Movie’ to Air

The very first Pokémon is set to air in North America on Cartoon Network on January 4th at 8:30 am (confirm with your local listings). The movie has been digitally remastered and should be a real treat for older fans of the series who may have seen the movie when they were younger.

Movie Synopsis

Giovanni, the leader of Team Rocket, had ambitious plans to take over the world, involving his latest experiment, a powerful clone of Mew—Mewtwo. Mewtwo is very powerful, and also very smart—smart enough to not want to be controlled by Giovanni. It escaped from the lab, and now Mewtwo begins to concoct its own scheme, clandestinely inviting a number of Pokémon Trainers to the ultimate test. Of course, if it’s an event for talented Trainers, Ash Ketchum will be right in the front row!

Ash’s excitement turns to fear and anger when Mewtwo reveals its plan for domination, creating powerful clones of all of the kids’ Pokémon so it can even the “imbalance” between Pokémon and their Trainers. Despite Ash’s protests, Mewtwo refuses to believe that Pokémon and people can be friends. But faced with the determination of a young Trainer and the love of his Pokémon, Mewtwo just might have to reconsider, especially when pitted against the power of the mysterious Mew! — Official Site

Enjoy!

  1. “…should be a real treat for older fans of the series who may have seen the movie when they were younger.”

    It may also ruin it due to worse voice actors.

    • the steps to completing dex:

      – if you have caught every pokemon in every route through your playthrough by time you beat elite 4 you shouldve had atleast 400 or so pokemon.

      – you get a bank starter, like totodile or chikorita, someone in high demand… put it in GTS and request a Xernias or Yveltal

      – put the xernias/yveltal back in gts once you get one and request a diff legend like reshiram/zekrom. once u get your new legend, put it back in gts and request ANOTHER diff legend until you have gone through each gens legend. You will then have all the legends dexed and only need the safari pokes.

      -theres people on here that will help u obtain safari pokes or hard evolutions. and you only have to go up to 705 in the dex, you don’t have to obtain 718-721 the dex doesn’t count the event legends
