The symbol in Ash's cap in the teaser looks like the modern one, but otherwise he looks like classic Ash, so maybe this movie will be a retelling of the first series?

Makes sense.

Either way, I wonder why they changed the symbol in Ash's cap.

A movie centering ho-oh perhaps as Ho-oh never had it's own movie. Or perhaps backstory that somehow brings Serena back into the main narrative. Or of course, a remake of the first episode.

Not gonna lie the new trailer looks pretty cool. Although yeah it might have some few more scenes that would stand out compared to the original but well we can't tell much based on it, but there are still in the PV so.

So it really seems it'll be a remake of the first episode. But will be it only the first episode? Because I don't see how they'll make a feature length movie out of a single episode.

The first Pokemon episode ( and the most memorable phase
in Ash's journey) in a movie length's time. I have never been
so excited to watch a Pokemon movie like this one.

I'm glad they appear to have held back a bit on the character design of Ash for this, compared to S&M. With this being based on the early first season I'm guessing I really hope they use some of old original soundtrack (tears after the cloudy weather, prayer) etc., although I can't see it.

This looks hell crazy! There we got here three character and Ash faces Incerior at the very beginning! what a total change from what we thought from the very beginning !!

I guess Pokemon Sun&Moon anime (or recent episode) will have something to do with this.

Yeah, it's sad they aren't coming back (unless Ash challenges the league during the movie).
But at least we're finally getting a movie focusing on Ho-Oh.

Also, for some time I've been wanting a Kai-esque reboot of Pokémon (but with new animation instead of just remastered, which IMO is what Kai should have been), maybe taking off from where Kimi ni Kimetta ends, but now if it happens I'll be sad that Brock and Misty aren't Ash's travelling partners again.

Also, I find it kinda funny that Ash's cap has a different symbol in the movie but the game's Ash-Pikachu has the classic symbol (and they didn't make an Ash-Pikachu with the new symbol). xD

BTW, have any of the new movie characters been named already?

For the record, the movie original characters do already have known names. I created entries for them but it'll take some good time for them to get approved. It seems there's nobody approving character entries lately.
I also created a profile for Marshadow. I think he must be important to have an entry of its own (for whoever doesn't know, animals, pokémons and other creatures should not have their own articles unless they're relevant to the story).

Huh? The new trailer is the confirmation my friend, new companions, new rival, new characters, Marshadow's role, and a lot of alternative events like Ash catching Charmander and Metapod evolving into Butterfree.

I don't get why some of you are disappointed, I'd rather have a alternative setting of the beggining than a "reanimation", and the new companions look interesting.

It's more of a reboot than a remake. I like that it follows the first episode only and the rest of the movie is new content. Looks like it will promote sun&moon with marshadow and Ho-oh finally gets a movie role. There was a teaser years ago for a Lugia vs Ho-oh movie that was scrapped. I don't think anyone would want to see a remaster recap in theaters except for that 3-d Doraemon movie.

Can't wait for this. Looks really awesome.

That OST is sick. That animation is sick. That graphic is sick.

Glad it's not a pure remake. Wonder what Pokemon Ash will catch later. Is it only Gen I Pokemon? Since they put newer gen Pokemon, maybe, just maybe he might mix his team. Greninja, please. Doubt so anyway, it's just my wishful thinking.

Yeah, I like that Ho-oh is finally getting focus on a movie. The teaser you're talking about is for Movie 13 (Zoroark Master of Illusions/Genei no Hasha Zoroark). It was supposed to be a Ho-oh vs. Lugia movie and I was seriously mad when they removed both from it.

Im just hoping that Serena and Ho-Oh play a part in this movie in a major way. Serena because she has history with Ash which we saw in XY, and Ho-Oh because hes one of the few legendaries that didnt get his own movie.


From the trailer, Ho-oh is indeed gonna (finally) have a major role, but I don't think Serena is gonna have a major role at all since Ash probably only met her in that camp, before meeting her again in XY.

lol i am not a genwunner since i watched Pokemon until Diamond and Pearl ended and it was OK. After that pokemon became childish and awful and i am disappointed because instead of remembering the best era of Pokemon, its roots, for the 20th aniversary they ruined it by adding two random characters.

"best era of Pokemon, its roots" pretty much screams genwunner. Nice try though. Well, it was our mistake into thinking they'll make a remake for the 20th anniversary. But that's still not enough for me to call it trash yet.

Seems pretty genwunner-y to me too.
And Pokémon Black & White might have been weak story-wise (though episode N kinda saves it), but XY/XY&Z had a magnificent story, and Sun & Moon is very solid despite being more comedic than its predecessor. And as great as the original series was, Ash's only true accomplishment in Kanto was getting to the league, because he was eliminated very early. In XY&Z, even though it had the same old "Ash loses the league" ending, he got to the finals for the first time, and the person who defeated him was a rival with proper development and not someone introduced at the last minute just to defeat Ash (like Richie in Kanto [as much as we all like him], Harrison in Johto, Tyson in Hoenn, Tobias in Sinnoh and Cameron and Virgil [which he didn't even get to fight] in Unova), even if it was an unfair victory as Alain's Charizard should've been weak against Ash's Greninja's Water Type moves but was completely unaffected. So, as great as the original series and the original trio were, I think XY is far superior. It even stopped with that bullshit of always downgrading Ash (he always lost his first battle in every region, even losing to Trip who was a newcomer just because his Pikachu conveniently couldn't use his eletricity, but in Kalos he almost defeated Clemont before Team Rocket interrupted, and in Alola he kicked ass against Tupper's trio, even though Kiawe did most of the work).

So, even if it doesn't bring back the original gang, I'm willing to give a chance to this movie.

And I also disagree about the series becoming more childish, it's actually becoming more mature. Episode N and XY&Z have very mature plots which would have never worked in the original series outside of the movies (which always had some mature-r themes compared to the main series).

I'm going to point something out here quickly, this movie probably confirms the Pokemon multiverse theory that has been circling around since ORAS.

With the remakes of Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire, omega ruby and alpha sapphire were technically the same games but with a few new additions like mega evo and primal evo. Later on a character by the name Sinia was talking about a "diffrent" Hoeen were mega evolution has not been discovered yet. She was indirectly talking about the original Ruby and Sapphire games. Looker was also found on the beach in ORAS and he had lost his memories.

This theory was also strengthend when Sun and Moon was released when a prevous battle frontier leader Anabel was a character in the post game, where she also has had a memory loss. All she could remember was a tall tower and a teleporting circle of some sort. This was obviously a refrence to her tower at the battle frontier in the original Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire.

My whole point is that now that Pokemon are building the world around 2 separate universes, that this is also a parallel universe.
