New Pokemon

Pok mon the Movie 2000: The Power of One [Region 2] Thanks to a greedy Pok mon collector, Earth’s weather patterns are askew and its population doomed unless Pok mon trainer Ash can return three glass balls to their proper place in this second Pok mon feature. Unlike the television show, the movie features little violence and no Pok mon battles in the classic sense. Instead, the focus is an environmental one: what happens when humans interfere with the harmony of Earth’s elements–in this case fire, ice, and lightning. Even Team Rocket have a (temporary, to be sure) change of heart, joining Ash and Misty in their effort to free the three imprisoned birdlike Pok mon who regulate those elements. The good intentions of this 76-minute film, however, don’t make it any less dull for grownups (even though this feature is better than the first). Even more mind-numbing than the feature is the lead-in short, “Pikachu’s Rescue Adventure,” in which Pikachu and Pok mon friends follow Team Rocket’s feline down a hole into a Munchkinland-type place. Without the humans for dialogue, viewers must endure a full 20 minutes of nothing but the squawks and squeaks of pocket monsters. As the movie’s title song says, “We all live in a Pok mon world.” (Ages 3 and older.) –Kimberly Heinrichs
Customer Review: The second theatrical film for the Pokemon franchise
Pokemon The Movie 2000 is the second theatrical film for the Pokemon franchise. Before the film, there is a short titled, “Pikachu’s Rescue Adventure.” The actual film revolves around three Legendary Pokemon (Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres), and how a Pokemon collector is trying to capture all three of them in order to capture Lugia (the “Great Guardian”). Ash ends up being the “Chosen One” referenced in a legend, and it’s up to him to save the day.

Pokemon - Into the Arena (Vol. 24) In these three Pok mon television episodes, Ash is hard at work training for the upcoming Pok mon League Competition in the Indigo Plateau. In “The Ancient Puzzle of Pok mopolis,” a training battle uncovers an ancient temple honoring Pok mon. With the help of a child-prodigy archaeologist named Eve and a song by an enormous Jigglypuff, the group discovers “the secret that soothes destruction” and sends the shadow Pok mon back into the shadow world. “Bad to the Bone” finds Ash betting all his badges against a fellow trainer en route to the Indigo Plateau. Upon discovering that Team Rocket has stolen the trainer’s hard-earned badges, Ash vows to get them back–even if it makes him late for the league competition. With the help of Pok mon Pidgeot and Marowak, Ash reclaims the badges from Team Rocket and proves himself a “winner at life.” The big day has finally arrived in “All Fired Up”–the Pok mon League Competition is about to begin. Ash feels honored and courageous, especially when he is chosen by the president of the league competition committee (Charles Goodshow) to carry the undying flame, which is rumored to originate from the Pok mon Moltres. When Team Rocket steals the flame and lets it die, Ash is despondent. Luckily Goodshow has an extra flame and some encouraging words for Ash. Only time will tell if Ash can win the competition or if he is, as many fear, out of his league. (Ages 5 to 10) –Tami Horiuchi
