Pokémon: The First Movie - Mewtwo Strikes Back

ActionAdventureAnimationAnimeFamilySci-Fi96 min

A bio-engineered Pokémon called Mewtwo sets out to prove its superiority by drawing Ash and other trainers into a match on its own terms. Rica Matsumoto is Ash, charging ahead with Pikachu at his side, while Ikue Otani gives Pikachu the spark that defines the duo’s bond. What starts as a high-stakes Pokémon showdown widens into a conflict around cloning, identity, and Mewtwo’s challenge to the world that created it, with familiar faces from the series pulled into a confrontation much bigger than a tournament.
