It's been a while since the poster for the 6th movie has been shown to the public. You really can't make out any storyline, but it's clear that it'll involve Abusoru/Absol/http://www.pokemasters.net/images/games/ruby_sapphire/rs152.png.
Personally, I find the movies to be a pleasant deviation from the cartoon itself, especially sections of it where every episode is the same, namely Johto. :mad: Unlike the regular anime, the movies actually contain plots where Ash and company (and usually the world) is in danger, fast-paced battles where the Pokémon actually look skilled and not have one frame for each big hit, and the places they visit look non-oriental (usually). I'm kind of indifferent to the little mini-movies, and due to the brilliant "Limited Release" idea that MIRAMAX made, I only got to see the first three, plus Mewtwo Returns. Thus, I only have good movie summaries for the first three movies.
Pokémon: The First Movie; Mewtwo Strikes Back
Ash gets a mysterious letter from a Dragonite, inviting him to a special meeting only for the best trainers. Overcome once more by his ego, Ash, Misty, and Brock sets sail for New Island, where a series of experiments gone horribly wrong has taken place...
Pokémon: The Movie 2000; The Power of One
Lawrence is a collector. He's collected so much stuff that he gets the crazy idea to capture Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres. Always the conservationist, Ash, Misty, and Tracy feel the tropical freeze, and Ash alone gets to ride Lugia and save the world...
Pokémon: The Movie 3; Spell of the Unown
Professor Hale has fallen into a vortex containing Unown, orphaning Molly. Missing her padres, Molly summons the Unown to give her Entei, a makeshift dad, who in turn steals Delia, Ash's mom, as her own. In the meantime, the Hale Chateau has been transformed into a monstrous crystalline lily blossom, and as the Unown continue messing around with reality, the flower gradually closes...
Pokémon: 4Ever; ???
Sorry, I didn't get to check this out, since the only theater that we could find that shows it shows when I'm at school. :( Anyway, Ash meets Sammy, a mysterious boy who apparently got Celebi's aid to travel a few decades back to the past (AKA the present). Hot on Sammy's trail, however, is a demonic Poké-Poacher with an equally-devilish machine and dastardly Dark Poké Balls, which brainwashes any Pokémon it captures...
Pokémon TV Special: Mewtwo Returns
Ever wondered what happened to ewtwo after the first movie? Well, Mewtwo becomes a misanthropist living with his super clones on a remote island, which--you guessed it--Ash more or less accidentally stumbles upon. But Giovanni, the leader of the whole Team Rocket crime organization, has also found the secluded area...
Pokémon: The Fifth Movie?; (The Tale of Latias and Latios?)
Ash has been all over Kanto, the Orange Islands, and Johto, so he sets his sights on Venice! Or at least a poser. This hydro-habitat is home to two deitic dragons, Latias and Latios. Apparently, they possess a much-sought after jewel, the Heart Drop...
Pokémon: The Sixth Movie?; (Absol Adventures????)
I have no idea what this is about. Better wait until something surfaces! I have a strong hunch that Jirachi and/or Deoxys wil get involved too!
