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. Got to love revenge hax. I missed a Stone Miss which caused me to lose Landorous…and then my opponent misses a Draco Meteor which allows me to KO his Latios

      • Because I only have 4 Pokémon right now.. there is Nothing worse than when I do a passerby battle, they see I only have 4 Pokes and they chose to use all 6 of their megas and legendary Pokémon still.. ) -_-) no I dislike forfeiters more though…

          • I can handle most of them, but if they forfeit I remove them from my acquaintances immediately after and they don’t get a “nice” at the end.. shows them! XD

        • It’s a lot more strategy than you think. I use a team that invoke status conditions fast but also dish out damage quickly. Parasect is best although his speed is measly. Also, if your opponent’s team is all OP, don’t worry because if they’re not careful, you can wipe their team out with supports. I just wiped a team of Zygarde, Aagron, Scizor, Ninjask, Blaziken, and Houndoom using Parasect, Sylveon, Vaporeon, and Ninetales. Sleep, Burn, Paralysis, it doesn’t matter. As long as you have that support, you’re good.

          • I find sticking to 1 or 2 similar status conditions works best…. not including things like confusion because that can most always help

          • I get pretty lucky with my Gengar. Dish out a ghost-type move or two and then use Destiny Bond and it spells disaster.

          • I like Pyroars move set.. I gotta make mine more bulky because with moves like entrainment and endevour along with Powerful attacks.. it could be a winner of its own

  2. Sanjay and Craig is just disgusting and inappropriate… Nickelodeon’s way of trying to compete with Regular show but its a Fail..

  3. Someone I swept on showdown is complaining its cheap rock slide on greninja. Most legends too. I was polite with good luck and GG too.

        • they said “At the moment”. Its obvious Unova/Kalos pokes will get mega’s next game or so. 5th Gen Poke’s didn’t have HA’s when they were first introduced.

          Zygarde has a base stat total of 600.
          Mega evolutions give an increase of 100 base stats
          that would place Zygarde a base stat of 700 if it got a mega

          it would then be behind
          Mega Mewtwo Y – 780
          Mega Mewtwo X – 780
          Arceus – 720
          Kyurem White – 700
          Kyurem Black – 700
          Mega Tyranitar – 700
          Mega Garchomp – 700

          don’t you think its odd that even Slaking has a base stat of 680, way above Zygarde.

          If Zygarde was going to just get a new form, they would’ve gave it a base stat of 660 or higher, not a super low 600

    • only 1 legendary so far and it will likely be the only one.. it makes perfect sense as to why Mewtwo and Charizard get double evolutions.. they were working on it as far back as movie 1 and when the lab exploded only charizard and mewtwo survived furthering their research giving them 2 mega evolutions
