0:00 [Music] you know honestly i don't want to do this today you want to come back next weekend we can't no [ __ ] all right well i guess that takes priority this is what happens when you schedule things exactly there are others

0:46 hey guys what is up danny back again and we are starting a brand new podcast series today this is pokemon gotta watch them all and i'll do a separate intro for this later because it's a little more nice and quality but if you guys are not familiar with what this is at the cg danny b direct this year i announced we're doing a new podcast series where we were going to sit down as a crew of four watch every pokemon movie and then rank them talk about the things we love talk about the things we hate talk about the bullshitter that they get wrong along the way and by the way this is a pg show so your kid out there prepared to be like oh yay pokemon [ __ ] you um that's the beginning of the youtube video probably the [ __ ] let themselves um but yes what we'll do is we'll watch a movie every week we'll sit here we'll go through the uh the story of the synopsis we'll touch base on a couple different things you

1:32 guys feel free as i read through it and discuss be like oh this part i hated this part i love blah blah blah um yeah i want you guys to be as involved as you can so don't be afraid to tell me to shut the [ __ ] up um but before we get started i think we need to introduce everybody so let's just start here to my left hey who are you sir hey there everyone my name is dante aka shuriblur you may know me from well you may not know me at all to be quite honest with you but uh my favorite luxury uh is long walks on the beach it's a [ __ ] dating profile is that not what we're doing sure i mean i i i i i'll have to switch my strips i'll just let your wife and kid know in the comments next and then uh you guys you guys are

2:20 familiar with me i'm uh chris uh danny and i do this whole thing we do we do a lot of stuff together sometimes a lot of stuff sometimes you guys already know me you guys already know uh yeah i'm uh princeton and uh i'm going to be the gordon ramsay or i guess the simon cowell because uh i'm gonna i put these movies on a microscope so i'm very excited to break them apart and show my hatred of pokemon so all right perfect so before we get started into this episode we're doing pokemon the first movie obviously the perfect place to start the first movie great thing everyone loves it but we need to do a little bit of clarification as far as our our intrigue as pokemon fanatics so i'd like to go down the line and see what everybody's current favorite pokemon movie is

3:08 shut the [ __ ] up so professional so professional i liked what i thought it seemed everyone's favorite movie is so i'll start going into this i was really excited because i have not watched pokemon 2000 in like three years probably and that has always been my favorite pokemon movie watching them back i need the newer ones i think some are good some are bad somewhere but 2 000 no matter how and we're recording two today so breaking the fourth wall here i've already watched 2000 and even though there's these dumb gimmicky things that i'm like that's kind of bad i still [ __ ] love the movie so 2000 currently is my favorite pokemon movie we'll see if that changes uh by the end of this but uh well for me uh i'm also super excited to go back and watch all these movies um funnily enough uh and i'm not sure how

3:54 true this is for everybody but like i didn't get past uh pokemon forever i think it is uh the one with sweet [ __ ] and celebi yep um so unfortunately my like favorite movie is gonna have to be like one of the originals yeah or not unfortunately i mean to be fair like it's my favorite movie and despite the fact that i don't necessarily care for either of the two pokemon that are showcased like highlighted in this movie um pokemon the uh the third movie is my favorite um i i don't know i don't remember the title it's literally slipping my mind pokemon three and then like the subtitle would have been the unknown spell the unknown yes then that's my favorite okay so uh having only watched the first three uh ever in my life i have such a broad

4:40 pull to uh pull from but uh easily pokemon 2000. i think the legendary birds were just like the best part i loved it man i loved all of it before john speaks or princeton i picked you up this afternoon you were just like i'm so excited to talk about 2000 because man i'm gonna rip it a new one yeah you're like i hate 2000 and i'm like that's why this is my favorite so i'm really excited to hear what you have to say my favorite it's the one with dark cry and shaymin uh with his rise of darker eye that's that's sorry that's what it is and then there's shaymin sky warrior is the one with gear tina so yeah yeah i got them confused so uh rice uh rice and dark white is my favorite one uh dark roads the second they showed like the cgi yeah that wasn't cj i was just a really good animation guys i come up i'm like

5:26 all right so my sexuality changes i love this pokemon and who needs women i like bestiality well it's a rape so it's more failure but okay yeah okay yeah that's my favorite movie uh we're in the safe part of this video right i actually do like everything until gen five okay so uh which is like the black white split yeah that's when you that's when i stopped kind of like fending away now i saw half of coco okay but i stopped because the quality was so low i'm like no i'd want to watch the game but uh yeah 2000 is my least favorite because of so many like stuff that's going on but that's worth when we get to it yeah before we we need to focus on the [ __ ] on the first slide but 19 i think was 96. i didn't write

6:12 that down but before we get into the movie let's do some really small quick impressions what did you guys think going back seeing pokemon the first movie for the first time whoever knows how long what immediate impressions not going too much detail what are we doing it's going older or it doesn't matter who i'm just going so i uh i recently watched the cgi one okay and i like this one more uh because they used the same director that did the anime at the time okay uh the first three movies he's the same director and it felt like you know when you watch like my hero uh the anime but then you watch the movie the movies like animation it's like gut here you couldn't tell the difference between the anime and pokemon movie because they were so good uh there's no budget cut at all uh all the pokemons were drawn

6:57 very beautifully uh every time i watch this movie even though like i'm like i don't hate gen 1 just so much pandering to genuine makes me not like them like stuff like that i enjoyed watching it i think it's like seven years since i last watched i was still in high school so it was more than that but uh i enjoyed it a lot and i think that this movie out of all movies has the most beautiful message at all oh that's easily easily the most beautiful message and it's like one that they still like even today i feel like people a lot of people need to kind of hear again yeah i mean it has and we'll probably get into it but like one of the most memorable quotes outside of just pokemon in general right um i going back and watching this movie is interesting for me because like weirdly enough i didn't have like

7:43 this huge feeling of nostalgia like i thought i would like i had a new perspective on how to take the movie and there was things that i was critiquing i was like what in the world why is this the way it is but at the same time despite the fact that like i'm not like that seven six-year-old kid in the movie theater because i oddly vividly remember going to see this movie in the movies um i still appreciated this movie i still really enjoyed it for what it was so yeah how old were you guys like did you watch it when it was still in theaters or did you watch it i i saw an opening weekend with both my parents it was that would have i think i said i think it was 96.97 whenever the movie yeah i remember sitting there and just being really excited yeah so for me it was i didn't get to see on

8:28 theaters uh because i didn't know about it uh i went to blockbuster and i used to rent like n64 games yeah i remember going like a little gun there and like poke what was this yeah inside of it somebody still left the original mia card that came in youtube that's so dude yeah i remember getting one of those when i went to the theater yeah and i was like i still have one yeah it was one of those things i didn't know if you had to return the card too or not so i did it and uh it was it was amazing um i remember watching it and i don't know if you guys remember but you had three days with blockbuster right i watched that movie all three days multiple times because yeah it was so beautiful you'd be afraid you're gonna like ruin the tape and then have to rewind it that was always my favorite blockbuster

9:15 i'm like i'm gonna [ __ ] up this tape all right we'll tell you what we got a few movie fun facts before we get with the plot i took these down not really thinking of like a format of how i read them i was going to read them uh so pokemon the first movie has to be mentally decided it was 1996. uh the movie grossed over 31 million dollars opening weekend competing against the likes of save it in private ryan the titanic and toy story oh wow so for an anime movie in the us in 96 31 million dollars ain't half bad yeah that's that's crazy to compete against toy story that's a big deal yeah like toy story was huge whatever all three of those are like huge so at least in my opinion movies i don't know i don't know the actual numbers of how they

10:02 sure so i do they're huge movies but two of them don't really cater to kids absolutely so that's true so for pokemon to be able to compete with something like toy story which has a huge um house whatever and it was something so new it was like cg people yeah that's what i meant behind it like it did for pokemon to do that good it that's it's wild yeah because yeah i think the only other argument here for saying saving private and titanic is that no kid went into this as a five-year-old to see it by themselves the parent had to breathe um you can pretend that there's gyarados in the titanic uh but as far as grossing worldwide it did 163 million dollars over its entire theatrical run

10:49 and just under 86 million in the uh in north america alone so pretty good money now i wanted to take the time i didn't get a chance to i know demon slayer the movie just recently became the top grossing movie of japan or something to the effect i want to get a chance to compare this so i didn't so if anyone out there in the comments wants to throw out those numbers please feel free but now we've waited long enough let's talk about this [ __ ] movie okay so as we start we're panning a lovely scene underwater we're watching some bubbles and stuff and we have a monologue we hear what we don't know yet but is mewtwo in his little chamber mumbling i'm ready to be so i love this line and until i watched it not it really it didn't really click because i sat there i was like it was just words as a kid he just said things i'm like that's me too i know the voice but i'm

11:34 like oh [ __ ] he's like ready to like be alive um and the story that we don't get in this because it was like a japanese radio show like the origin of mewtwo and the professor's daughter and all this different stuff to explain why he exists other than just a clone of you um but i thought that was really cool just looking back and like oh he's ready to be alive that's that's adorable good for you as soon as you pop out and just start working everybody but i i i remember them talking about i actually learned about that like little radio show that they did yeah um and it was interesting going back and hearing that line and also the other line where he mentions like was it all just a dream of that nature because with context it's like oh snap like that okay that's why he goes ballistic

12:19 so when i was in minnesota there's a 4d theater oh you see the vikings um they had a 40 theater and they played pokemon and in that scene they did a rumble like you're saying it's so cool and i was like oh like i looked around all right let me see here uh some youtube wakes up in the laboratory surrounded by scientists and finally being the first successful experiment at clothing mu so we learned at this point they've been they got dna from you from an ancient slab and some i guess it's fur or i don't know it's supposed to be like a bone or something that they're using to clone mu and just try and recreate it to make it better more powerful for at this moment we don't know but as the viewer we learned uh for giovanni to be like hey i'm going to use this and have the world's most powerful pokemon um and we learned real quick about it

13:05 was real real quick i like like when i was a kid like i was like like i don't like i didn't have an appreciation for but going back and just seemed like even though the like the scientists weren't like actually like named characters still how much detail like they put into making them all like their own unique like character design is just i appreciate it so much more even the guy that i'm sure you had in the script that says that one line yeah that's it it was just a beautiful thing right for sure i love that that line and i have a thing to say i don't know if it's a spoiler uh so i'm gonna be very vague within this movie or is it yes there's a fun fact um in that scene in the beginning that shows that has to something to do with the future movie should i wait until

13:50 that movie so i'll be talking like how long did the genesis movie now go for it okay so we got like two years where we get sent so it's been confirmed uh the mewtwo from this movie and the mutual and genesect movie are two different names right same thing with mew with the lucario movie and the mute from here so it shows that in the pokemon world not just mewtwo is a clone obviously but there's multiple legendaries yeah already that's been proven because of those two movies where you had multiple which was really weird because like growing up playing the games you you're kind of taught like there is only one of this pokemon i guess it's immoral or who knows what it is so it's not like a whole like multiverse thing it's like all so uh some people have brought it out to get this on the moon it's really hard so uh some people bring up the sun and moon

14:38 uh the uh this is no x and y because that's when they choose mega so some people are saying that there's a multiverse there because of the games but the games are not affected by the actual anime and movies so it's one of those things where it's weird but there is multiple mutants confirmed and there's two mewtwo's because the one in genesect's the female yeah are the are the anime and the movies connected do we know that no uh so every time something happens in a movie it does not affect the show the show in any way should perform there's no knowledge ash never has knowledge of the pokemon even though he'll use the pokedex like on the movie like whoa who's this like dawn fan right and then when he got don fan himself it's like oh what's this like yeah all right so it's like it's like the dragon ball movies yeah i was just about to bring it up yeah yeah okay i was just curious because i remember the anime does go uh over like

15:26 uh lugia it has a lugia episode and they there's a baby lugia yeah um so i love that arc it really did yeah that's why i brought that i want to bring that out because it's like there is more than one me too yeah and like a very popular theory is that one of the failed mewtwos uh was the ones that she'll stop and yeah pokemon uh whatever the [ __ ] that movie's called genesect then the something of the something yeah yeah it's in a white space um but yeah so mewtwo pops up and basically is just like who am i why am i what's my purpose like oh we're trying to clean you and make you the most powerful pokemons like so now i exist now what he's like oh we're just getting started he's like [ __ ] that noise homie just starts blowing up the lab and honestly so i love this line i did a nomenclature comparing the original with evolution

16:11 and of course youtube and netflix said [ __ ] you and took it down so i have the file but it's not anywhere to be viewable yeah um but i compared the intro these two put it on pornhub i thought about it cj b pornhub coming soon um but so mewtwo blows everything up the doctor and we learned later he did like a quick little recording before he died but yeah which is kind of weird yeah i'm pulling out so we did a thing [ __ ] i love my kid and my mom this kid's dead little do you know that that scientist he was the original vlogger i just want to know when he started doing that in the midst of everything yeah because i would have had to have happened when things were blowing up we don't hear any of that recording we only hear the end of it which is the line

16:57 where he's like so i absolutely love this line so we dreamed of creating the world's strongest pokemon and we succeeded and he says this was like not a tremble in his voice but he's like yeah i think we [ __ ] up now that i'm staring death in the face like like it was more coming from like just like a sense of like fear yeah he's like we did it yes [ __ ] and then obviously we pan out we're above the eye or above the lab and then we just see it explode right and that's he's sitting here in this rubble in the fire um giovanni shows up in his helicopter he's like hey so they were kind of treating you bad like i mean i hired them and all but i'm here to help you gain your powers control your powers and then we can be partners so mewtwo's like all right you're the first one to say anything intelligent today so [ __ ]

17:44 um here's the first one to give me give me the time of day and answer my questions real quick before uh because there's something i want to talk about so like i love how just like like the different like the differences between like how like in the manga how mewtwo was created and how like the movie says like you need to bring that up yeah okay because i'm not familiar with the manga all right so like in like the whole thing with like the manga blaine was the scientist that that helped work on mewtwo he was still working for giovanni so he was still like that yeah but if i remember correctly so was it was it like a passive like hey were both gym leaders or was blaine like a team rock he was like a team rocket like the same thing with serge sabrina and koga yeah what happened what happened was this was touched upon in the games briefly yeah right they didn't go into

18:30 detail with it but like there's it was vlogs and journalism so when pokemon came out after the success of that movie yeah they went uh they went they're like we need to make this into the manga so the guy had literally three months to come up with a story that rivals the actor the animated version of it yeah and it's the origin it's youtube but the story completely forks exactly definitely like a lot of stuff what happened in the movie was catered for kids well they they still cater to kids but it's time to get super i got uncomfortable a few times so i'm like i have to stop reading yeah because i have pokemon and everything you mean to tell me that like eight to nine side scientists just getting obliterated into ash it's like for kids

19:16 right so as a kid i'm just like i'm just like blind to it but then like as an adult i'm like seeing it watching erica talking about how she needs to take out an eevee that can just go between the eevee evolutions she needs to kill it because it's it's not right uh that's a little and she they they have like that thing where it whereas it's like like like in the anime like when the antagonist is like they say dark from like here up she has that kind of moment she's like over the thing you see red crying his eyes i'm like i need to say that baby yeah so like like the whole thing was it's like i believe like like mewtwo like there was something not like wasn't right within like in his dna structure so blaine actually had to use some of like like his dna to put in the mu2 to complete the cell structure and there's like a whole thing where

20:02 like depending how far mewtwo was blaine actually got stronger or weaker okay so like in the manga like you see like blaine at one point he's rocking a mewtwo that's like slaughtering people with spoons it's amazing also mewtwo was created in the mansion yeah manga yeah which is why you have that explosion in the game okay but in the game they don't tell you it's me too yeah it's just burned down and you're just assuming yeah you're just assuming that blaine's a fire gem leader he probably burned their [ __ ] down i didn't want to say to go earlier because he mentioned the anime to the uh movies and uh when ash gets to i forget what city it is uh you actually see the figure of mewtwo with the armored pieces coming out in the anime but ash never makes the connection obviously oh what's

20:48 that and then that's it and that's why ash never battles giovanni giovanni because he's trying to get mewtwo back and the whole time he battles team like regular team rocket and yeah so they there is that connection but then technically speaking like this movie never happened right yeah there's some interesting plot timing with the anime and the movie like released because there's some things you did in the anime that were supposed to lead up to this but because we're getting to we get to that part right um but let's see here yeah so giovanni is like let's look we'll be partners and then of course he gives this really cool suit of armor to you too youtube's like why are you you know kind of taking away my powers like we're not taking them away we're controlling them so that way you can kind of training wheels your way into your psychic abilities and from here it's like let's just have youtube do all my chores he runs out and

21:33 picked up a bunch of torah so we can start catching them win me some gym battles he probably ran out to get a carton of milk or something along the way and just be like just why you have the time oh you're good you get tired i hate clap story if there's ever a pokemon for me king to not go against it it's youtube the most powerful psychic type of time that uh that particular trainer invented double battles at that moment right yeah yeah he cheated i think team rocket did that like episode three when ash was like come on pikachu and like ekkan's coughing like you can't [ __ ] do that that's cheating like gen 2 says otherwise but which really i i really want to know how giovanni

22:20 pitched that to people to get trainers to fight it just like yeah if you if you beat this pokemon which no one has or knows about you'll probably get like like a boatload of money and they're they're like okay let's get in there to be fair i'm gonna bring this up later trainers have zero they they just have reckless abandon oh they just have a reckless they don't [ __ ] care they're so so the whole like we are pokemon fans so we know every pokemon by heart but in the pokemon world you don't see it you don't know exist yeah maybe you saw it in a tournament online or something yeah like you don't know because the only people getting pokedex are actually trainers right so the average person doesn't know like they're like oh [ __ ] is that a pg no what the [ __ ] what's the summer you know i mean i think rainbow bird

23:06 flying across the sky i've never seen it before just imagine getting a charizard and being like i have the ultimate dragon pokemon you think it's look what i made like i got it i got a dragon it looks like no you don't got that dragon no but why because you said so yeah basically i'm the pokemon professor i made the rules this confirms the theory that uh the kids are the ones that make the pokedex yes um but yeah sumito's getting fed up he's like [ __ ] it i'm i'm gonna do my own thing obviously after giovanni comes in like no don't worry you you work for me we'll screw the partnership you're mine now you're gonna help me win battles miesha says [ __ ] it blows up his new laboratory slash jim whatever he blew the [ __ ] up flies back to new island which is wait which by the way that's a weird

23:54 gun which by the way from the time mewtwo decide made that decision giovanni started running and then the explosion giovanni had no time to get out of there homie should be dead just like yes like i rarely enough think of giovanni as a pretty big brain smart uh how did he think that that conversation was going to go over oh you belong for me now okay cool yeah that makes sense yeah i get it like i don't understand why he didn't expect mewtwo to just freak out right oh well this is what caused it the first time let's let's do it again maybe he's better now he's in a suit of armor i assume it came down to giovanni thought i have him constrained he can't

24:39 do anything but probably obviously me too is like i'm pretty [ __ ] strong and changing just blows everything up anyway so you think this armor is compressing me no no which which i still stand by i just got to get this in there that should have been a skin for smash oh yeah i'm very upset that it's not but yeah we can move past that well there's a lot of things for pokemon that that just comes to why the shinies aren't ever scared yeah interesting things interesting things right um but yeah some youtube blows up the place flies away and then fun fact in the intro of the indigo plateau anime as we watch mewtwo flying into the moon this is the scene of mewtwo flying away from giovanni's base that we see in every beginning [Music]

25:25 um see avicii goes back to new island he's like that's it the words the reign of mewtwo will soon begin title card pokemon the first movie mewtwo strikes back mewtwo's out for revenge let's [ __ ] up the humans we don't we don't need this [ __ ] [ __ ] we don't need them anyway now we meet our heroes ash misty and brock chilling on a cliff side making some lunch actually the tired boy i don't want to do anything and then mr uh one of the parts of the caribbean man shows up and he's like hey you you're ash ketchum yeah let's [ __ ] fight ash is up going at it misty's like i thought you were lazy nah [ __ ] it it's a pokemon battle um and i just want to point out brock's like best line in the movie i think he gets another one and returned to mu but you can't find that movie anywhere so we're not going to get to watch that one

26:12 but uh he's like at least his mouth is still working after he's like oh pokemon battle doesn't work love the line love it so much i think brock's great brock was amazing yeah so ashley's like let's let's smoke this pirate man it's like diving in because i haven't everyone i'm sure everyone's got their notes because i know i guarantee there's one that everybody wants to point out before we get too into it fun fact during this battle we see the first the fifth ever johto pokemon revealed in the anime which is don fan numbers one through four are in order of ho-oh togepi which are both the anime and then merrell and snubble which were in the short leading into this movie pikachu's vacation uh i will mention that that had me like so screwed up with what i actually remember yeah because i i think this uh doubles

26:57 back to like the theory that like some people think togepi is a first generation right i do too right uh and i think that i think the anime is to blame he threw out a don fan i was like wait a minute we're still technically in gen 1 right yeah let's see yeah that was and then this is also the first time we see the move roll out which was really really cool i mean technically bulbasaur has the type advantage yeah typically i don't mean [ __ ] in the enemy world yeah i understand this but this is this doesn't mean [ __ ] i i mean that's

27:43 exactly what this problem is i agree with this i agree with this but this one to me makes sense compared to the next one because this is the same additives the same show that has ash and swillow you thunder and then [ __ ] fly like a lightning spear and somehow swell never took any damage i'll just say when it comes to the anime pokemon origins should have become the main anime we should have gone from there but i digress so as we already said volvo star comes out bodies dawn fan our fifth johto pokemon and now we have our next round because instead of keeping bulbasaur out let's switch we have squirtle versus machamp which honestly i think was a pretty fair fight i think squirt will bite this guy fairly nicely here's my thing ash's team even though they're not [ __ ] involved with charizard have

28:29 always been strong like this squirtle has the coolest thing where like when he's watering and he spins that's the coolest thing ever honestly i'd rather have to squirtle than ash have a blast to be fair his squirtle was also a past gangster yeah he did run again so he knows everything you do about fighting so i say yeah my chip goes down to a bubble beam which you know is well that's also back then when moves were like uh if you watch uh before the physical special split that was like uh back in the day when all them all the battles were like pikachu use tackle [ __ ] all the battle all the battles were one hit ko basically it wasn't until gen three where they stopped doing that yeah i noticed i noticed that and i wasn't sure if that was just like specifically

29:15 like a uh as the music plays we only have so much music we can play here so i wasn't sure if it was a situation that we're just left up to our imagination that more battle happened even though we only saw the bits that we did yeah every battle in gen one all the way till uh the end of two uh was like that the league changed that in gen two and gen one when they did the their battles it was literally just like one pokemon use boomerang and then the other pokemon regardless of typing double down knocked his ass out now when a pokemon took a hit that was like a big deal on the first one because it's like holy [ __ ] he's strong yeah all right there we go let's get into it so pirate man gets upset and he's like you know what

30:01 let's 3b won this [ __ ] so he sends out let me it's bennenet trump who's the other it's vetonet something golem i think and golem i only care about the golem because pikachu jumps up thunder uses thunderbolt on all three of them including the golem who and then which by the way listen and jodo there's a scene where misty ash brock and and ash are all sitting somewhere yeah and they're making fun of ash and uh he's like ash doesn't know his typings he's like and then uh misty makes a slight comment about like he'll probably use the pikachu in a golem and i was like he's done that he did it

30:46 so obviously this pikachu's supernatural doesn't belong being the way that it is but it's a god tier this guy he loses i guess he only had five pokemon with him um and then we get that wonderful i kind of wanted that to be my ringtone i was gonna set it up but um and we have team rocket watching from the side oh what's going on with the the twerp and everything uh and meanwhile throughout this entire fight we have these little camera shots from a firo above like what's going on this let's this train looks pretty good we should maybe invite him to a special event with a mysterious host that we don't know who it is this is where we're drinking we totally don't know the tournament of power yes that wasn't youtube listen keep your other anime [ __ ] out here

31:31 um so yeah so they sit down they have their lunch beautiful majestic dragonite with his tiny little wings comes flying in gives them the invitation to the ultimate super trainer something world's greatest pokemon trainer uh i want to have a battle with you come to my island they accept brock recognizes the little lady on this hologram like she looks familiar i wonder who she is we get that a couple i don't know good thing we're not on twitch i'm sorry she's really cute for being so small or something like that no she's really small but she's really cute out of context um but so so because i don't know if you put in those but the team brought like jessie james and yelled stopping the dreams

32:22 dragonite's weakness we all don't know this yet because a frying pan pokemon does not exist so because of this right here it's the reason they're able to deal with bewares [ __ ] because they've been if they if you can stop a dragonite you say extreme speed with a goddamn cast iron skillet trust me which is why that dragonite disappears from the wrestling movies yeah because it wasn't even like what like skipping way ahead like when mewtwo takes all this pokemon and just like dragonites nowhere to be seen so like i don't know what kind of fodder this dragon that is where it's like i could use you but i actually have a scyther and a needle kingdom he was like nah you got stopped by a frying pan you're all on the list but you're gonna just like punched up like

33:07 like dragonite starts like jordan he's like no you you stay you're back you don't get to go can you clean the base while we're gone we'll come get you oh we're not gonna go fight i swear we're just gonna go take a walk all right let me see when it summarizes a bit so the tank yeah we're going to do it let's go to the pokemon center we'll sail off to this new island place have our special battle we meet all these lovely trainers who have all been invited to the new island challenge and we meet our three other important trainers in the movie fergus nisha and corey so the guys were these guys ever said not in the movie i thought i'm on ceremony with the gyarados his voice is so goddamn annoying oh i can get to new island anyway oh my pokemon are

33:54 watertights we'll just swim to that island yes furnace spoilers false which is just like like the whole time like that one like like the one they see experts just like the others dangerous storms out there if you go you will die yeah and then there's trans are just like no no no no i think i will go and she's like well that's just what sets them apart from everyone else they're just too good those are the real trainers we need to be looking to and it's like you just said they were all gonna die coming from miranda who has some serious like important character design and is on the screen for maybe 10 seconds right she's like she has amazing voice though she's uh she's top tier like minor waifus let's go i'm all about miranda um but of course our trainers [ __ ] that storm it's just rain we don't care

34:40 everybody starts taking it off this this movie is a very fun fact here okay so there's the guy with the gyarados so i'll just get some gyarados and right next to him there's a [ __ ] with a pharaoh and she's going the opposite [ __ ] [ __ ] [Music] i'm gonna find the picture really quick i'm gonna find the picture real quick make sure you say i'm gonna screenshot it that's why i've been on my phone because i've been trying to find the picture well she thought she could avoid the storm because if she went the opposite way she went around the [ __ ] side that's hilarious or it's a power move but she's like all of you down there i'm up here circling around well then we have cory who does the same strat just goes the right way which is oh there's the opposite direction so everybody's going this way

35:25 and then i was like wait hold on and then i was like you don't see her she doesn't make it by the way yeah obviously a lot of people see a lot of trainers leave that don't make it and i heard that struck by lightning before the big reset they probably died that pharaoh didn't have vault absorb that was his issue that was the real issue so yeah our team they're like we gotta get some new one and then misty the voice of reason like ash dumbass none of our pokemon can do that because apparently we can't evolve anything so they're like well i guess we can't do it and of course for plot convenience we have our lovely vikings we have no idea who these people are first time showing up they're from minnesota they're from minnesota we have our first we have this little boat we'll take you to this place because we want to get there too whatever so we go sailing down brock says hey i didn't know vikings still exist and then

36:13 ash with the perfect line and i didn't get this as a kid i don't [ __ ] know football i didn't know until i moved to minnesota and i was like yeah totally totally didn't get it and then ash is like yes they mostly come from minnesota and it's a football joke so united states confirmed yes yeah pokemon takes place in the u.s all right at least the nfl's confirmed yeah there you go the usa i don't know what the [ __ ] minnesota is um but aside from this the other great joke is jesse where they're like hey stroke is stroke and i think i'm gonna have one it's a good one that's clever i love that one um yeah our everyone we're sailing to this island because the pokemon aren't strong enough as we're like halfwayish there maybe the storm picks up and everybody gets

36:59 drenched and oh my god it's team rocket who though [ __ ] had any idea i didn't i didn't i didn't no i didn't it was biggest that was like one of those like top 10 biggest players top 10 biggest anime plot twist just welcome to watch mojo yeah i um that's actually a gag that i love and even as like the show went on i don't recognize yeah like obviously if you were like that's just enjoyable but like i love how amazing their costumes are i don't like everything and it's just so much just so in fact they put that into the movie not once but twice i was like this is beautiful it's great yeah um so yeah storm picks up knocks everybody out of the water and then because we couldn't use our pokemon to get here in the first place let's quickly pull out squirtle and

37:45 staryu we swim the island we make it safe and sound team rocket nowhere to be seen yet but uh our magical question on that yes misty has a star meat right i think so she should have a starbucks i think i think the i think the thing here is that there are strong waters and they're not like evolved pokemon like gyarados can swim this [ __ ] like nothing i don't think a stormy can but she still used star u sorry that's why i'm i meant to say star yeah yeah sorry i meant to say star you yeah i can't swim that good but she's still cause she does does she have starmie she i think she has i feel like she has both when we think it's when we should have both when we first get introduced to her i remember the gym battle with ash she has starmie yes she has been i can't think of a moment in the show when she left that she had like not saying she doesn't

38:30 i don't remember when so maybe she's a great this is one of those things where it's just weird to me because i'm like i feel like she should have starmie but then again i this is also the point where i thought uh where i thought ash had a lapras and he doesn't so right because well he doesn't have to get crazy not yet yeah because he's not an orange island yeah we're not yet because this this would be right between him getting his eight no he has a guy hold on this is he comes back to pal town he this is uh after blaine no no no where does this take place this is here let me find it cause yeah because i thought i thought this was before the league no cuz he doesn't have uh he's missing a couple of his key pokemon that he caught in this gen

39:16 but let me because i know he doesn't bring out pidgeotto which that would explain if he has pidgeot well he wouldn't have pidgeot because pidgeot would have been left in the forest which is still before the league i think um i don't know i wasn't really clear on it but uh while you look that up so yeah we get to the island lady shows up and brock's like you know what you do look familiar you're the missing nurse joy from the pokemon set she's like nah i've been here my whole life all you're talking about okay never mind so we make our way and throughout this whole thing we have little snippets of team rockets showing up climbing up the building okay just using wheezing as a gas bag they make their way inside kind of get into like the secret layer we'll get there then um yeah ash the team they come in and the the lovely hostess is like hey take all your

40:04 pokemon out of the pokeballs ash the team kinda sorta does like we don't geodude doesn't come out onyx doesn't come out oh no i'm actually wrong it takes place already has all the badges okay she has eight badges but not the league yet so it's between episode 64 and 74. so he's done all the badges he's there he's just waiting to start the league so he he's already had like pidgeot yeah yeah okay yeah cause that was the note i took girl like they took out most of their pokemon ash brought out everyone at some point except for pidgeot or pidgey that's weird because it doesn't actually use a couple of his key pokemon like which other ones do you think i'm going to cerebral right now okay yeah because at that point you still have like muck and such yeah because muck would be weird with oak but he doesn't take him back out anyway because into that one battle because crabby and kingler he doesn't bring out until the league yeah

40:51 then you have uh snorlax which i think is also orange because he caught what's that i think so because i think it's one of the first things he gets he gets that he gets lapras yeah okay uh pokemon come out let's go in and we meet the other three trainers yet again fergus corey and nisha and they're like check out my team so uh this is our first big uh let me see here i got the measurements we're thinking i think we'll do the thing pokemon are cool cool i call these the bumble blunders so this is where we have some uh some [ __ ] ups in this first movie which everyone notices but you know we all call him out anyway uh so corey's like i flew over here on pidgeotto's back and he clearly has a pidgey out in front of him so that's actually a uh not only that translation air that's also uh some of the translators were not

41:37 pokemon fans okay so they were just translating um what was given to them so like it's actually a mistake from the japanese directors and writers who sent their information over and when you translate the name they got the wrong right they set the site there that i have another note for that okay that was something yes on it but that was not the yeah that was the translators themselves and then next we have fergus who introduces all of his pokemon as water types but he's got a needle queen in there he's got a posture among them i mean if anything nidoqueen's weak to water so he's like yeah i swim over there it doesn't matter i mean ry horn can learn surf but he's four times weak like well you can light away they just they

42:23 just give any gen one pokemon whatever hm's they want cause oh that was a that was wild territory so the team they mingle they get to know a little bit and then all of a sudden the lights go dark except for one giant pillar of light in the center of the room around a spiral staircase where we see none other than the ultimate trainer himself and you too descend down from the heavens now another fun fact this was supposed to be the very first moment we saw mewtwo in this movie what they intended to do was the three episodes leading up to this movie uh the episodes ended with little snippets which were parts from this intro seeing the lab blow up everything we've seen in mewtwo up to this point were part of the anime but because of the porygon episode where i got put on hiatus in japan none of those things premiered until after the movie because anime got the

43:08 anime got put on hold for four months right because they have to do a bunch of legal stuff that they yeah so they had to all that stuff that was supposed to be revealed to lead into the movie then like well now we can't show it so they spliced it up put it as the intro of the movie so now we had an introduction of whom you two was but in the movie up till this we would not have seen mewtwo until he descended from that pillar which i thought kind of would have been kind of cool oh absolutely um but it's like yo he's the guy on the box i didn't even see him yet um but yeah so that's a fun little fact there so the trainers start freaking out a pokemon can't be a pokemon master no way fergus gets pissy has gyarados attack and missiles it all goes downhill our trainers start fighting they start let's throw hands it's mewtwo's like i'm psychic you can't [ __ ] touch me uh i wanna bring up briefly that uh this

43:54 is the first part of the movie where i'm just like wow a lot of i noticed it earlier in the movie too but now there was a particular line where i was like wow a lot of the talking is a bit redundant yeah because the girl the the girl trainer says he's a copy and then immediately after the guy's like he's a clone yeah we just decided we've been established this already i'm pretty sure mewtwo like introduced himself as the clone of mule deepest voice when he says he's a club i was like have you guys not been paying attention obviously they hear her because the guy has a [ __ ] pidgeot i'll get upset with corey here um and then brock amelie's like who are you i was like he just

44:42 said it um see after mewtwo does some little throwing around treating him like trash like yeah and you wouldn't be against a real match then would you and youtube's like ooh a challenge let's go now at this point team rockets already made their way to the underground laboratory that mewtwo's created from where he was born along with his clones so mewtwo clearly has some type of engineering background yes i promised you he didn't he didn't hot he didn't hire scientists for this so this shows that youtube can [ __ ] do engineering i like to imagine him with like a utility belt and then like with those three little fingers holding like a wrench just like this he's like [ __ ] i shouldn't have killed those humans because obviously he can mind control humans with nurse joy which i'm just saying right yeah um you could just be like before i kill

45:27 you make me another one all right let's go back but um obviously has something to do with whatever illusions he can do that become reality or whatever um so yeah after this we have our fun little battle mewtwo summons his venusaur charizard and blastoise you're wrong they're they're canon is blastoise too trustworthy ii and venus are two okay so i remember this because there was this [ __ ] in elementary school that fought me to death because he told me that i knew that these were the twos the sequels obviously mewtwo charming two right um but this kid was like yeah charizard blastoise and venusaur evolve again and the only difference is they get stripes and he got he's fighting also this could have been smash costumes yeah they couldn't [ __ ]

46:12 just putting that out there listen nintendo but yeah so this kid fought me saying like they evolve again yeah because the movie showed mute uh charizard two glasses two et cetera so like this is the middle step between what should happen between megas is that the idea yeah so before they mega they just get some stripes like he's doing something um but yeah so this battle scope this at this point ash hasn't brought out charizard yet is obviously charged ourselves listen to him it's the whole obedience thing um that [ __ ] him in the league uh but we have shell shocker she committed the sin and she dropped the e and just put them uh brute route which i

46:59 honestly forgot about and i i think from on um if i get a venus or a soulmate it gets brute rude yeah oh it's just the first one that we see a trainer with other than gary but yeah nickname pokemon no with being with a venusaur or with a fully evolved starter i mean a trainer not not ash himself no not ash oh i want to say i i don't remember anybody having a venusaur yeah not because i think the only venus we saw to this point as like a a proactive character would have been the venusaur bulbasaur evolution episode yeah um stanford blastoise we only saw was when it was like he was sick stuck in the shell and um yeah i think that's the case i don't have to notice that but i'll assume um i'm just saying i really enjoyed how like like ash is just like

47:45 uh i don't have a name for it but go charizard yeah he sounds so salty about it damn i don't know we can nickname these [ __ ] that fight with charizard i like how charizard comes out and it's he's just like yeah oh there's smoke all right that's that's where there's smoke and then immediately like that fight in the sky i love it preceded by the grab seismic toss right into the ground like i'm like that's actually really nice because charizard gets put in his place fun fact during the battle between the three final evolutions of the starters blastoise and venusaur get absolutely body charizard's the one actually stands a chance in the fight but a fun thing that happens in the middle of the charizard fight as they're battling in the upper sky we have a nice little moon in the

48:32 background this moon alludes to the moon that shows up in the anime every time ash's charizard uses seismic toss and starts spinning around around and then throws them down it is pretty dumb but it's iconic so that was a fun because we didn't do that in the movie but obviously it was like a way to elude like oh that moon that happens in seismitos but someone's going down and then we get a little someone's getting yolked and of course it's our hero charizard and i love this one it's another one i do in the comparison video where like in evolution charger kind of was like but like this movie charizard has like that really weak cry where he's like i want to keep going but i can't and it finally collapsed i'm like [ __ ] that [ __ ] right that hurts that's deep well because like normally like in the anime it's like when when charizard hit the field you're like

49:18 alright one he's not even gonna listen to adam yeah but he's also there to demolish somebody yeah well i think part of it it's because they they went out of the way to show that like just because they have a strong pokemon that's something you're gonna win i think char saw was a great way of showing like i'm stronger than you so [ __ ] yeah i'm not going to win but in this moment right now i need you and you need me i think that was the beautiful thing about the the here because ashton ashton at lesser until almost like no actually listen to the league actually no he didn't he just doesn't [ __ ] listen yeah this is the first time to ask that church our guest lesson right yeah he's almost sort of he kind of listened against blaine kind of yeah but it wasn't because of ash it was because he's like [ __ ] this guy i'm stronger than him so yeah and even up to this like i think we still struggle a bit through johto until we get to the

50:03 charismatic valley and then that's when it's like let's separate and then charizard becomes faithful once we get to three and that whole thing happens but yeah um yeah so mewtwo wins he's like obviously i'm strongest and as a win as a prize i'm going to take all your pokemon so he gets these cool magical black eyeball looking pokeballs which i wish were in the game balls the millennium pokeballs um and just starts snatching up all the pokemon he catches everything in the room with the exception of togepi um pikachu and yeah plot twist picture doesn't go into a pokeball but yeah it's clogging anyway yeah it's just it's i saw it as a note i'm like is it relevant but it's technically the first time we ever see pikachu go into a poke ball it could also catch other pokeballs dude we want to make yeah it's like oh even inside your pony

50:49 father it's just it's like it's the original two-factor authentication where you just just double check make sure you have them um yeah as you [ __ ] are flying around we have this staircase chasey with pikachu using thundershock and breaking like all these pokeballs they just keep coming keep coming finally gets caught they dive ash tries to say pikachu and chases them down this really cool under pillar slide thing that we get which is fun and then we run back into team rocket they're watching all these pokemon come in getting scanned and this is where we have our next uh bumble blunder where they're announcing the pokemon on the screen where we have dugong vileplume and then scyther but they call it out as alakazam

51:34 so that's a [ __ ] up again this is one so i saw in a some post somewhere that in an interview about the movie um they had announced that yeah it was a translation error but instead of fixing it they left it alone so that kids like us at the time would have been like that's not alakazam that's scyther and give us that moment of like i'm smarter than pokemon uh yes i kind of want to call [ __ ] on that but oh wow you know uh right here this is uh every time i watch this scene i'm like so why is team rocket not grabbing these pokeballs right getting the [ __ ] out yeah and they're so wary about me too that like from this point forward team rocket plays no role in the finish of this movie yeah they could easily grab like seven pokeballs put in their mom get the [ __ ] out the movie will still play out the way it is

52:21 except trainers will be missing pokemon yeah what happened so i don't know my people [ __ ] kill them i don't know like my nidoqueen my gold but but i mean with the very end of the movie and how it ends though that would have been yeah weird yeah we'll get to that anyway um yeah so uh and then the other mistake is that as we're seeing some of the clones spawn in um we have meowth who calls out sand slash as a sandshrew yeah no i mean i love him but he's not in there i think that's an easy mistake to make though yeah which that one i see with more is like the pidgey pidgeotto thing than alakazam scyther but still blunder we're calling it out no ifc's buttsies

53:10 uh that should be in duplicates okay so yeah ashley's after all the pokemon comes in absolutely bodies this machine by biting it and all kinds of [ __ ] uh but not before it can clone every last pokemon and then mewtwo decides let's call him the battlefield all of you wins by the way you know that right because he has the only dark move that's great that's why ash comes out victorious that's amazing um see ash breaks this machine all the clones march into the battlefield which is like one of the most badass scenes in the movie as they come around crystal music it's like they're marching in oh yeah it's it's so good amazing but before we get the originals the clones coming in youtube's like alright cool i have all my [ __ ] it's time for you guys to [ __ ] die

53:55 and then that's when the wall blows up and ash comes in like i won't let you with his [ __ ] team here let's go mewtwo no that's two yeah well you can't continue because so so ash comes out he's like you know mewtwo you're real sick of your [ __ ] and he's ready to start [ __ ] throwing hands just charges in goes to suck a bunch of youtube's like no i have this invisible [ __ ] off and ashley's laid out he's like let's go for round two and then gets launched into the [ __ ] scene my favorite part yeah you know what he's like i rolled him with these [ __ ] these pokemon it's you and me momma

54:41 my favorite type is that my favorite thing is that danny put ash decides to rush me too and try to lay him out the way you wrote that i write when i take these notes i write them like nomenclature i'm like this might be funny to say but obviously i'm not going to sit here and just yeah after some pre-victory monologue ash gets tossed away like a trash bag i i mean i commend him because he's like you know you know this thing now that literally just yoda gyarados yes without any without breaking sweat i'm going to throw hands with them once again reinforcing the fact that trainers have give zero [ __ ] about anything so it's something at that point it's like like what's stopping like when they're like no my pokemon you can't faint it and it's like you have like i don't feel like an example like i'm a champ just like bottom hands like pulling something down just punching the

55:26 crap out what's stopping the train from just going in there and just spear tackling right that's that's the that's the pokemon that i'm hoping we eventually get to is that once you run out of pokemon you you have to throw hands right you you are the last defense right i'm supposed to wipe out right now but that's why you lose money at the end i have an ultra and i got a master i only got three grand let's make this quick all right so then ash tries to fight gets body washed in the sky now we're seeing him go flying at this like stone pillar which should absolutely shatter his spine yeah but i don't know where we get this lovely little pink bubble like what the [ __ ] is this okay finally see mew show up to do

56:12 something in this movie other than floating some water in some bubbles and like some shit's going down i better check it out um so you see me you pop up periodically but not for anything plot relevant like like like it was like like team rocky when they were on their way out of the clothing room you were just floating behind it yeah i think nelson was like the only one in the room never called it out like what's that like he's just like look no this is normal that big pokemon with us the whole time okay sure i'll let that happen um so yeah after this they start kind of squaring up mew mewtwo or like oh now let's [ __ ] go other fun facts this is the first time we ever see the move shadow ball and rapid spin

56:58 and rapid spin um so that was cool uh and then from here you two and you start flying around the arena fighting each other throwing shadow balls throwing psychics doing whatever kind of [ __ ] they're doing um and they have a little dialogue of like you know what just because you have modified pokemon doesn't mean they're the best obviously a pokemon's true strengths from the side muji's like cool i'll turn off sweat mode and let's just [ __ ] go at it i feel like this is a com this entire like situation is just commentary on casuals versus competitive yeah somebody's like i don't play online i just play i play my team in game i'll pick my starter my bird and then we'll fight youtube's like i've ev trained all of my pokemon they have perfect

57:47 and also my other my other thing my other favorite thing about this scene like coming up is just like uh we've seen battles where just like pokemon use like their abilities like they're using flames or hydro pump like none of the pokemon in this fight are doing any of that yeah they're just throwing hands they're just actually just hitting each other like what can we do it's it's interesting because i saw it i didn't really know what to think of it because i was like maybe it's just that's a lot of animation to do rather than making a pokemon move i i think that's what it ultimately comes down i cried at two scenes um not the iconic scenes that everybody's gonna think right at the two side ducks fighting uh i don't know why

58:33 at the time was my favorite pokemon my first pokemon that i ever caught and when i played pokemon blue or right i can't remember which one the first one was i think it was blue yeah what's the psyduck because i didn't know you catch pokemon i thought you just got your one right and that's it because prior to this i play drawing quest one where you play with one character right through the whole game there's no party system so i played pokemon and i had i remember actually because i didn't know how to [ __ ] read i remember hitting like a button and you see this animation and i was like what's that and i caught a side doc and that side dog following for multiple games and uh it was one of those things uh no i didn't that's a different side doc that i was thinking about but it was one of those things where um psyduck became my favorite because i was like oh you can have more than one

59:20 okay and i was like oh that explains the slots yeah i could probably catch sex so because of that when i watched that scene as a kid i remember crying and my grandma's trying to figure out what the [ __ ] going on she's blind so she thinks i'm being like one of my cousins bullying me or something she's like the what i have to say like in spanish it's like the psyducks and she's like pokemon go all right she just goes hey stop [ __ ] with john let him be there you know what i was saying so i cried out that scene and then i cried out the meow yeah that's a good one email um yeah so team start fighting pokemon throwing hands everybody just wants to play except for pikachu's like man we should really knock the [ __ ] out and during this whole scene we have

1:00:06 probably one of the most iconic songs in any pokemon movie ever which is brother my brother which i could sit and play in the car over and over and over and have the lyrics down pat any time i see those memes where it's like gun to your head there's one song you have to sing lyric perfect what is it like brother my brother for pokemon the first movie let's go love the song so much um so yeah this whole time actually like i got to stop some stuff but i'm way up here so he's slowly got to climb down this building every time he's probably breaking his ankles shifting something in his spine something to get down there i mean he's immortal so it's true he's immoral um yeah pikachu's running through here trying to figure out what do i do i just don't want to get involved and he runs in his little rival and they're like well let's go that pikachu was not [ __ ] playing out

1:00:51 of all the pokemon that were there he was the most aggressive he's seen thunder moves he was actually beating the [ __ ] out of pizza

…
