   Another comment! You can't get to Erika, cause you need HM01 Cut and you need to beat Surge so your Pokémon can use the move. After Surge you can do stuff out of order.

   Ash his dad is alive. You would've know that if you watched the whole anime from start to finish! (He gets one mention at the last episode.xD)

   the talking Pikachu moment I always took as when Ash truly understood what Pikachu was trying to say for the first time ever... in the anime it is established that eventually Ash has a pretty good idea of what exactly Pikachu is saying to him with every "Pika Pika" so in the movie I figured that the climax of the movie was when Ash finally understood what Pikachu was saying because their bond had finally reached that point.

   I think if they had made reference to the fact that eventually trainers become so in sync with their Pokémon that they can truly understand what they were saying at some point earlier in the movie it might have not stood out so much...

   (01:14:47) Incineroar is fire/Dark, not fighting (it's a wrestler that plays dirty) It seemed like a trend that a lot of fire starters ended up evolving into fighting types, so i think people were glad this one was different.

   (01:37:06) those aren't just the different trainers from the games, those are specifically the ones Ash has travelled with on his journey. Yall have only watched the ones with Misty, Brock, & May & her little brother, but Dawn, Iris, Cilan, Clemont & his little sister Bonnie, and Serena are all the ones i remember being the most fond of. This movie has a lot of gen 7 pokemon, (like Incineroar and Marshadow,) and although this movie released like a year after the Sun and Moon games and anime started airing, the Alola team not shown here has some of my favorite of the friends he's made on his adventures

   The thing i like about the anime compared to the games is that most of the rules and restrictions that apply in the games only exist to make it function properly as a game, but the anime is just higher quality and they dont need as many of those restrictions. Even then they mostly stay true to each other, watching the anime so much gives me imagination while playing the games, like when a pokemon dodges an attack or tanks a hit that should have knocked them down just "so you wouldn't feel sad" where in the anime they would have used some elaborate combination of moves in ways you wouldnt expect. I honestly wish they put as much effort into the mainline games as they do the show and most spin off games

   Just a reminder/ fun fact that Ash's name in Japan is Satoshi, and when Pikachu says "Pikapi" he's saying Ash's name

   Ash and Pikachu 100% died and Ho-Oh resurrected them. Which is the lore behind Ho-Oh, 3 'unidentified' pokemon died when a tower burned to the ground, its speculated they were Flareon, Vaporeon, and Jolteon, as Ho-Oh resurrected them to become Entei, Suicune, and Raikou. And those who hide Ho-Oh's secret location, are Shrine Maidens who wield all the Eeveelutions in Gen 2, supporting the theory those who died were the original eeveelution trio.

    I love how they didn't recognize the Blastoise and Venusaur at the beginning were the ones that got cloned in Mewtwo Strikes back... Or they didn't mention it anyways.

    Starters have special default abilities like Blaze, Torrent and Overgrow that power up their type moves when their HP is low. No, Incinearoar is actually a Fire/Dark type despite its design being suited for one of fighting type

    my favourite part of this movie is the pokecenter scene at the end, Ash basically told nurse joy "i threw a rat at a god", and if we go off of game logic the pokemon that looses faints and pikachu is awake in that scene, so technically he just said "i threw a rat at a god and won."

    I thought (and was hoping) this was gonna be from the B&W era due to the art style, but I forgot about Sun & Moon. I'd watch this but I only got a few episodes into the show's season when it first started airing. I do wanna go back to it and catch up at some point, after rewatching B&W maybe.

    B&W was my childhood. I did end up starting to watch Pokemon from the very first episode, and I know I got far, but B&W is THE era for me. Would be cool to see you react to some of the movies from it.

    I’ve always thought about Pikachu “talking” as Ash and Pikachu’s bond being so strong that Ash understood him in that moment, and Pikachu didn’t literally speak . I just think it maybe wasn't conveyed the best

    By the Way, if you want to branch out to Pokemon stuff that does not include the shows or games, the Pokemon Adventure manga is very good. In fact Pokemon’s creator, Satoshi Tajiri, has said the manga is his preferred version of the story.
