The initial trio of films will be complimentary for viewing
During the time when Pokémon was gaining popularity in the late ’90s, fans worldwide were introduced to the inaugural anime feature. It features Ash, Pikachu, and their companions, along with a Pokémon confrontation “like never seen before” showcasing Mew and Mewtwo.
If you haven’t had the chance to view Pokémon: The First Movie, or wish to experience it again, the official Pokémon TV channel has now made the full feature available on YouTube. This will seemingly be accessible for a “limited-time” and will subsequently be followed by Pokémon: The Movie 2000 and Pokémon 3: The Movie.
“Pokémon films are coming to our Pokémon TV YouTube channel! Get your snacks and witness the enchantment unfold in these three initial Pokémon cinematic masterpieces! Join us on the first Friday of summer for a thrilling journey with Ash, Pikachu, and his companions. Relish this iconic moment for a limited duration—head to the Pokémon TV YouTube channel!”
Here’s a brief overview of Pokémon: The First Movie from the official Pokémon site:
“The journey bursts into action with the introduction of Mewtwo, a genetically-engineered Pokémon created from the DNA of Mew, one of the most elusive Pokémon of all. After breaking free from the facility where it was formed, Mewtwo vows to demonstrate its own superiority. It entices several skilled Trainers into a Pokémon battle unlike any other—and naturally, Ash and his friends eagerly accept the challenge!
“Ash’s enthusiasm transforms into dread and fury when Mewtwo discloses its scheme for domination, crafting potent replicas of our heroes’ Pokémon to rectify the “imbalance” between Pokémon and their Trainers. Despite Ash’s objections, Mewtwo is unwilling to accept that Pokémon and humans can coexist as friends. However, confronted with the unwavering determination of a young Trainer, Mewtwo may need to rethink things…particularly when challenged by the enigmatic power of the mysterious Mew!”
