What people don't seem to realise is that THIS MOVIE WAS AIMED AT POKEMON FANS AND KIDS. At the time what kid wasn't a Pokemon fan? Now of course as a movie it is relatively balanced although you can't help but think this is What people don't seem to realise is that THIS MOVIE WAS AIMED AT POKEMON FANS AND KIDS. At the time what kid wasn't a Pokemon fan? Now of course as a movie it is relatively balanced although you can't help but think this is all extremely coincedental. I mean they just HAPPEN to crash onto an island due to a storm (that just appears out of no where) and the island HAPPENS to be having a festival one and Ash HAPPENS to be the chosen one destined to save it. It all seems blatently set up. Otherwise the animation is great for the time as is the soundtrack. Pokemon fans will adore it and others....you may want to give it a try but I wouldn't really recommend it. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This score is the lowest I can honestly give. This movie obviously is an ocean of silliness. In the whole Pokemon world it has to be Sasha who is The One, like always he is in the good place at the right time. Surprisingly it is his task to bring together three spheres of any kind of prophecy. However keep in mind it is primarily for kids.

Animation is truly decent for a 2000 movie. Soundtrack is incredible. Jokes are funny and meta ones are crazy: the Team Rocket reamains the funniest once again. For one time this Team evolves a bit and stop being the meaningless bad guys, even if the real bad guy of the movie is lame as Wobbuffet.

Nothing to write about the Pokemon's especially unless the fact that talking Lugia made me cringe a bit. If he can talk, why not the other Pokemon's? Or even Moltres, Zapdos or Articuno? A lot of mysteries... Anyway I found Sasha was incredibly mature for his supposed young age. We see him giving some impressive talks about friendship and responsabilities.

In metascore I would rate this an 88. It is better than the first cause this movie has a better plot and animation. The movie does have some flaws of being repetitive and boring but the movie is great still.

"Pokémon 2: The Power of One" is better than "Pokémon: The Movie". This second Pokémon film offers a great and passionate moments.

Pokemon 2000 is the best pokemon film because in my opinion the story is the nicest and deepest. The villain is amazing but the best is the soundtrack

So I don't care what critics think I just love this movie. Atmosphere, characters, story are just great! My beloved part is music though. I will never forget Lugia's theme song, it's so beautiful.

(Warning: Nostalgia blind)

My least favorite of the trilogy, but still pretty decent. Cheese still very much present.
