The second theatrical film for the Pokemon franchise
Pokemon The Movie 2000 is the second theatrical film for the Pokemon franchise. Before the film, there is a short titled, "Pikachu's Rescue Adventure." The actual film revolves around three Legendary Pokemon (Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres), and how a Pokemon collector is trying to capture all three of them in order to capture Lugia (the "Great Guardian"). Ash ends up being the "Chosen One" referenced in a legend, and it's up to him to save the day.
This DVD release of Pokemon The Movie 2000 has some special features. First, there is an extra labeled as, "Soundtrack Live." This includes live performances of Dream Street's "They Don't Understand," Alysha's "Dreams," and Youngstown and Nobody's Angel's version of "Pokemon World." There is also a two-minute documentary about the making of the soundtrack, which includes interviews with Donna Summer and "Weird Al" Yankovic. All of these extras were part of "The Power of One: The Pokemon 2000 Movie Special" that aired on The WB. There are also theatrical trailers for Pokemon The Movie 2000 and for Pokemon The Movie 3.
Overall, I have to say that I enjoyed this film. The film runs for about an hour and twenty minutes, and the story utilizest his runtime well. However, I'm a little disappointed that there isn't a way to be able to be able to choose to simply watch the "Pikachu's Rescue Adventure" short by itself on this DVD.
Any Pokemon fan should have this DVD release of Pokemon The Movie 2000 in their DVD collection.

The Best of the Best.
This is part 2 of 10 in rating the pokemon movies. Pokemon the Movie 2000 is my favorite. A lot of this harkens back to it's theatrical release when there was a lot of anticipation for gold and silver to be released and to see Lugia on the big screen, wow. Looking back on it, I really like the mythology behind it. Although it shares no real canon to the television series, I think that this movie made it seem on a grander scale. Like the world was really in danger. I don't know that I care too much for the title of the main movie, "The Power of One," I think it gives too much away. I also don't think that Ash truly was the power of one considering he had all the help he had. I mean, he couldn't have done that by himself. The true lesson seems to be that you need allies. This is an overall great installment to the Pokemon movie franchise.

Disappointed
My grandson has been anxiously awaiting this CD.
We sat down to watch it only to have it constantly
stick at certain points.......we tried moving it ahead
but it would immediately go back to the beginning.
All in all a frustrating experience. By the way, it's
a filmsy recording in a flimsy box..........
almost like one that is made off market.
We should really get a replacement from Amåzon.

Great movie to add to your Pokemon collection
I enjoyed this one just as I enjoyed the first movie. As some have said before...it is more lighthearted than the first one which is nice. It starts with the three legenderies; moltres, zaptos, and articuno being captured and its up to ash to "save the world" lugia makes an appearance and a powerful one at that. the movie didnt fail to entertain and i reccomend it highly to any fan. its going on the shelf with the rest of my pokemon collection.

Enter the chosen one
This was the second pokemom movie to be released. This year celeberate the 7 anniversary of this movie and abouth the 9 or tenth anniversity of the TV. Series. A word of warming even though this movie got a g rating I do not recommend this movie to any one under the age of 13 due to heavy fantasy violence and thematic elements. For those of you that did not watch pokemon season 2 when it first aired or when it was on cartoon newtwork back in 2003 or 2002 in re runs you might not be aware that the line up has changed. This movie takes place during the orange island series. It has been a few months since the incident with mewtwo that end in a heroic battle. After ash nobly scarificed his own life to stop the fightig. Just to inform you ash was revived at the end of the first movie by pokemon tears and has never been killed again since the first movie. We also have a new character in this movie taking brock's place. The movie begins with Ash Misty and a new characters Tracey a pokemon artist who is substituing for Brock after he decide to stay behind and assit proffesor ivy near the end of the first season. While the three of them are traveling to the Orange Islands the boat is blown off course in a storm and lands on Saumdo island. There Ash is choosen to be part of a festival. The future of the world is at stake and evil colector has captured the legendary pokemon Zapados and Moltres and is going after Articuno too lure out the beast from the sea the fourth new legendary bird Lugia. This causes the balance of nature to become unstable. It's up to ash and Lugia to restore the peace among the three legendary birds. Will he succed or is the eartgh doomed tio be utterly destroyed. Also to inform you this also was the first time team rocket switched sides and went from being villians to heroes. If you like this I also recommend the other movies and the Yugio movie

I loved this movie!
I remember seeing this movie in theatres when I was around 7, and I really loved it!! Needless to say, this was my favorite movie out of the pokemon saga, especially since we see some my favorite character, Articuno. I was watching this yesterday, and let me tell you, when youre older, the movie has a whole new depth, I was crying at the ending. This movie is more entertaining then the first one (not to say the first one was bad, I loved it) I highly reccomend it!
