Gekijôban Poketto Monsutâ Adobansu Jenerêshon: Myû to hadô no yûsha Rukario
(2005)

Yet Another Fantastic Movie
I have a rule that if a movie makes me cry, then it is a fantastic movie. Pokemon: Lucario and the Mystery of Mew made me bawl like a baby. The story was very genuine and one that resonated on a personal level with me.

Pokemon is childish, I'll admit, but I truly believe that adds to some of the power that certain scenes have. You really don't expect these kinds of things to happen, and when they do, it hits you much harder than you would think.

This particular title adds a lot of history to the Pokemon universe and is definitely a must-watch for any Pokemon fan. My only qualm with it was the part that Mew played in it. It felt somewhat detached from The First Pokemon Movie, almost to the point that it had me believing there is more than one Mew (especially with the number of times that the characters said "a Mew?" as though it wasn't THE Mew). However, that is forgivable because the story, animation, and (dubbed) voice acting was all completely on point!

10/10 would recommend to any Pokemon fan, hardcore or otherwise! Expect tears!
