Pokémon Movie 2017 Officially Announced

As per the usual Holiday tradition, the first trailer for the next Pokémon Movie has been released!

Airing on the Japanese variety show, Oha Suta, the next Pokémon movie will premiere in Japan on July 15th, 2017 and is called Pokémon, I Choose You!

The trailer showcased random landscapes, such as Pallet Town, and showed Ash putting on his hat and picking up a Pokéball followed by Pikachu looking a bit confused at the end. The official poster (shown above) features Ash & Pikachu in a field with Ho-Oh.

Thoughts on this departure from the usual yearly Pokémon film? Disappointed it won’t be focused on Alola, or ecstatic for this celebration of the 20th Anniversary of the anime?

  2. One thing that watching all the Pokemon walking animations has me wondering about is how they’d look in the over world. As far as keeping up with our trainer that is. For most Pokemon it won’t be a problems, but I’m wondering about the much slower moving Pokemon like Slowpoke. Even while running I can’t imagine their animation will look all that fast. So when moving at faster speeds (running) or even while waking will the whole thing look awkward? Almost like we’re dragging them along? It wasn’t an issue in HGSS as they were sprites, but now that we can see their whole bodies in full I think it could be a weird looks. Any thoughts?

  3. Breeding has definitely been my focus ever since beating the main storyline – I just now got Cosmog xD Does it become the opposite legendary if you evolve it all the way?

    • It’s another rumor from Eurogamer. Supposedly there’s a main series Pokemon game coming next year to the Switch. It’s either specifically called Stars or that’s just the code name of the game. Either way what ever it is is supposed to be a brand new story. Hard to say exactly what that entails tho. Given Eurogamers track record I’d say it’s pretty likely well see a game announcement sometime next year for a new game release for the Switch. The game will likely come out in late 2017. Presumably similar to SuMo
