A Pokemon movie is tearing me up! Yes, I know that this is already old but nevertheless, the original Pokemon and characters will always be a good classic to watch. Ash together with Misty, Brock and seeing nurse Joys and officer Jennys brings back good memories of my childhood. I remember seeing this movie in television when I was in Elementary. For me, Mewtwo will always be the best legendary pokemon out of all of them. Why? Because he is psychic and psychics kick butts. =)
The movie starts off with Mewtwo having doubts about his purpose of existence. When he learns that he was created to be the strongest Pokemon but genetically made from Mew's DNA, he couldn't accept it and thought that he is far more stronger than ordinary Pokemons and humans. Mewtwo escapes destroying the laboratory along with the scientists that created him. He is asked by Giovanni to become partners in his plans for world domination. Mewtwo agrees and later on found out that Giovanni also wanted to gain control of him and his powers and so he left. Ash receives an invitation from a certain Pokemon master and asks him as well as other trainers to come to a specified island and their journey starts here on..
I've been watching a lot of Pokemon series until now and as far as I know, Ash is alive and well but this scene in the movie where Ash risked his life to save the Pokemon and appeared to be dead pulled my heartstrings. Pikachu was desperately waking him up but nothing works.. seeing Pikachu with all those tears welled up something inside me. It was really heartbreaking to watch but.. we're talking about Pokemon here. The power of friendship do miracles and wonders. :)
