Serebii, a Legendary Pokémon known for its ability to traverse time, is hunted by an unnamed Pokémon poacher seeking to capture it. Yukinari, a young Pokémon trainer who enjoys drawing portraits of Pokémon, tries to protect Serebii after it stumbles upon him; but in the middle of its escape, both vanish without a trace.
Forty years later, ambitious Pokémon trainer Satoshi hopes to sight rare Pokémon around his local area. White, a boat driver, takes Satoshi to his village. Satoshi is accompanied by his three closest friends: Takeshi, a former gym leader training to be a great Pokémon breeder; Kasumi, a young girl wanting to become a skilled Water-type trainer; and Pikachu, Satoshi's Pokémon partner and first comrade.
Meanwhile, Yukinari and Serebii reappear in Satoshi's present time and run into his group. Masked Lord Vicious, the strongest executive staff member of Team Rocket, desires to capture Serebii. Using the Dark Ball, a variant of Monster Ball that corrupts the Pokémon caught within and draws out their maximum power, Vicious can transform innocent Pokémon into powerful and frightening obstacles—including Serebii itself! Placed in a tough position, Satoshi, Yukinari, and their friends must work together to defeat Vicious and save Serebii and themselves.

quite honestly, i know the pokemon movies have been getting some eh reviews but i personally think they are pretty good.i understand that they aren't directly related to the shows but that's okay in my book really, this one is no different. the story does remind me of princess mononoke but i rather liked the nature feel of the whole thing. i enjoyed the art, a new yet familiar design to how i remember pokemon to be. i liked all the voice acting and characters..well lets just say i got a surprise with one of them. i enjoyed the use of the original group andi would say this movie is pretty good for anyone who is a pokemon fan and has some free time.

Pokemon 4EVER is not only the worst English Pokemon title, but also the worst movie among the original five. Shallow in every way, there's not much good you can say about this movie. Frankly, the only positive constant throughout the movie is the gorgeous art. In a few of its quiet moments you really feel like you've been transported into a heavenly forest. There's also a single fun sequence consisting of a fight with a pokemon trainer and the ensuing battle against time, as Ash runs to an already departing ferry. If that sounds like very little, that's because it is. On a more critical sideof things, the cringeworthy introduction of the main antagonist is hard to watch. As his terrible (in both dub and sub) evil laugh spreads throughout the forest, your brain hurts - how did he invent pokeballs that turn pokemon souls evil and have an effect of leveling them to level 100? As you wonder, he suddenly pulls out an awkward spider mech. Movie, can we please go back to Ash?
Another poor victim of the movie is the dialogue. After the pretty good (subbed) dialogue in the first movie, servicable dialogue in the second and some really good lines in the third, this movie treats us to really cringey writing period. Beyond that, the whole plot is filled with contrivances and nonsense in general. Following the bad choices from the second movie, all science and logic are thrown out of the window. Nothing makes sense and nobody tries to explain anything. The movie presents us with the first braindead Pokemon fantasy ride instead of a realized Pokemon world.
Character development doesn't happen. There's no complexity to anyone and there's a single forced designated character development scene, which, frankly, doesn't work. The movie feels like a made for tv production aimed at kids aged 3 to 5, inducing only cringe in anyone older when it turns to self parody as Ash graciously flaunts Celebi's dead body towards the screen as a cheap way of making us care (before reviving him because you can't have death in a Pokemon movie).
In conclusion, there's not much good in here. It simply exists. I can only tentatively recommend it to extremely hardcore pokemon fans who watched the whole anime series and after all of that have no standards left whatsoever. If that's you, you might enjoy some comfy moments it offers. For a few minutes at least.

A BIG step down from the first three, but still generally enjoyable overall. The main problem was that the generic "guy tries to capture Pokemon" story was nowhere near as interesting as the stories of the first three. Though halfway through, with Celebi being possessed, things did get real, and it got interesting from that point. And aside from the weak story, it was great. Sam and Ash's friendship was really cute, and there was a lot of nice, cute bonding moments. The animation was beautiful, and there was a number of drop-dead gorgeous scenes. Celebi was very cute, and there was some good humor especiallyfrom Team Rocket.
But once again, what secured it's grade was the direction. Things really pick up halfway through, and it keeps getting better and better until the climactic scene, which is possibly the single definitive moment of the series.
As a whole, a big step down but a good movie overall.

This movie is good, but not the best Pokémon film out there. The art is beautiful, and even the computer-generated parts blend in without problems. The sound are the usual, and fit the film very well. The plot takes its time, but no matter how deep and touching it tries to be, all that's really accomplished is a good attempt to connect emotionally with the characters. That is where the movie fails most. For a change, it is nice to see there is someone in Team Rocket that gets the job done. And yet, like in all children's stories, the evil must not win. The good will prevail.No matter how strong and impressive the opposition, how desperate the situation, there is no way the good guys will lose.
Maybe I'm a bit old for this film and those alike it, but it also weakens the general structure of the film because they ruin the strong premise with something illogical that would never work in reality.

Watching "Pokemon 4Ever" transports me back to a simpler time when the world of Pokemon felt boundless and full of possibilities. The movie captures the childhood of wonder and adventure.The story follows Ash, Pikachu, and friends as they travel through time to protect the mythical Pokémon Celebi from a villainous hunter. The themes of friendship, courage, and the timeless battle between good and evil. Celebi's ability to traverse time adds the little spice that was needed to get the plot going. In conclusion, "Pokémon 4Ever" is more than just a movie; it's a nostalgic trip that rekindles the joy and excitement of being a kid growingup with the games and movies. This might not be everyones opinion but idgaf this is a masterpiece.

Pokemon 4Ever: The Emerge of Broken CGI. See?! Even I could easily give this movie a much better title, and I'm so high on sugar right now, that you don't even know! I know, that I'm not supposed to have such a high expectations towards this movie, since the first three movies were awesome to me - if humbly flawed, to some degree - but this... Argh! This is not a good time, to be called a pokemon fan, spoiled by the awesomenes of Mewtwo, Entei and Lugia! To be honest, I'm not sure, what to call this movie. Technically, this should be rated as abad anime, but I can't really call this a shitpie-level bad, so... Yeah. Let's call this movie, with its real name. Pokemon 4Ever: The Fanservice - because, seriously... there's not much else, what this movie can really offer, even for a fans of the series!
My biggest problem with this movie, is the story, which is suprising, since the premise to this movie is actually quite decent - at best - with time traveling, sacred forests, ever-so-japanese springs of life, new legendary pokemon, and all that good jazz. But, to follow that all-so-tired 90's trendmark of enviroment vs man, why oh why did we need that very same shtick pastered into this movie too?! We didn't - Blinky Bill took that part to the ludicrously preachy levels ages ago! Why not keep it nice, and simple for just a once, you guys, and let the story have conflict, without third-hand-policy?! Humans are boring, as a villains, if they're not correctly motivated, and this villain, is not - is he even a villain, I honestly cannot say! All he wants, is money, and power, but he's also so stupid, that he refuses to sell those 'dark' pokeballs of his, that will exhalirate any pokemon potential to the fullest possible point, thus turning them into... evil? Kay! Hook some brother in with those, and you'll have a mint in no time! Boring as hell, and just... stupid, as hell! And let's not talk about our favourite terrorist group, Cobra... no, the Team Rocket, because let's face it... they're not doing anything worth mentioning!
And Suicune... why was he there? No, seriously... why was he there - it is a 'he', right?! He kinda just... was there, and now he is there, and no... he isn't there. Really? That's it?! Really?! Seriously, what a wasted potential! What this movie desperately needed, was some serious re-writing, and better CGI - it hurt my eyes! Hear me out... If Celebi was this... protector of the forest, or what not, and Suicune was... also there, then why couldn't there be some sort of power strugle, between two legendary pokemon - with epic proportions, 'course! - of who's got the right to be the true protector of this... sacred forest, that no one truly really exactly cares anyway? And... Ash being there, for... some reason, because... he doesn't age? That would have been so much more interesting to watch, than this wild goose-chase, with this washed-up loser-bad guy, with stupid name - his name is Vicious, btw - with no real motivations, absolutely hollow and pointless plans, and a personality of a wallpaper! Kinda the same, what they did with the second movie, but... second movie was good! And this time, Ash wouldn't have to be this messiah, or martyr, or anything like that - just be there, and your MC-powers will prevail! And the ending... oh my Grisaia the ending! So stupid... so very, very... stupid! Ouch!
For what this movie actually was, it felt more like a Captain Planet episode, mixed in with pokemon, and I didn't like that! Usually, pokemon movies are very personal at their stakes and consequenses, when saving the world, and learning something new about the world, about themselves, or something like that, but this... I couldn't find any of these things, from this movie. Nothing was learnd, nothing was changed, and all that needed saving, was this stupid forest, that no one cares! Theres nothing for Ash to do, so... why was he even there?! And those steam-punk pokepalls... I'm not even going there - all the missed possibilites hurt my very soul! The story itself, isn't even that strong to beging with, so that no real stakes, consequenses, motives or themes can't really occure, when compared to the first three movies - expecially the third! - and Celebi... is just a another Mew, but less with personality. Lucky him... Suicune had absolutely nothing to give!
Giving this movie a solid 5, almost seems too high into my critical eye, but I must be honest... I actually quite enjoyed this movie. To the degree, with flaws and all! It was, what pokemon fans can expect it to be, but nothing else, really, and that poor CGI... ugh! Let's not talk about that! If only this movie could have gotten itself out of the woods - no pun intented - then this movie, could have been on the par, with the first one, Mewtwo strikes back, but, since we really got just this wattered-down 'movie-special' about professor Oak, and better explanation for his undying trust to this goofball-Ash - yeah, spoilers, again - theres really nothing special to celeb-r-a-t-e. This movie is a solid for a hardcore pokemaniacs, and some of the regular fans might find this somewhat decent, but for a not-fans... try to find something else.
And hey... who has a charmeleon, and makes it use a headbud, in a battle?! Or a water-type, against electric-type?! Now that's just... wrong!

Wow! I guess I'm the only one who literally didn't find this enthusing. I have not seen much of Pokemon so I don't know if the story's kept interesting, the characters in-character or the art being changed, but let me review. Story: The plot takes place in a forest, much like movies like Princess Mononoke or Castle in the Sky. But these kids find this monster who happens to be a time traveler. But then they run into this vicious guy who tries to make the monster turn from good to bad and it's up to the team to turn him back into a good monster. Theart is alright, I guess. There were some computer-generated animated scenes, but I guess it's pretty decent. Not the best out there though, could've been better. Can't say anything about the sound, but from what I remember, it's pretty much kept as usual.
As a matter of fact, my cousins are obsessed with Pokemon and used to watch it all day and I used to watch it with them ever since I was like 5-7. But got tired of it, watched a Jiggly Puff special at eight-years-old, found that to be good, but I found this film to be very disappointing.
I used to watch Pokemon when I was little, but not very much. I guess I'm pretty much grown out of it now and I heard that there's a lot of hate out there for this show, Naruto and Bleach (mostly the old, kiddish anime shows).

Of the original Pokémon movies (meaning gens 1&2) Heroes is the one I never remember and 4Ever is the one I've never been able to get into. Like, the first three movies were all deep and moving in some way. This one was just dark and sad. I'm not sure that there was any real message it was pushing. Kind of just a generic villain looking to abuse Pokémon for his own gain. Celebi annoys me. I'm sure that plays a big part. And something about the way the movie looks makes it hard for me to stay focused and pay attention. Visually, it's verydark. Like, the animated equivalent of filming every scene of a live-action movie on a cloudy day. Even the 'bright' scenes have this muted look to them.
But for some reason, I remember watching this one over and over as a kid. The time travel element is kinda cool, and I actually really liked the Professor Oak connection and the tiny insight it gave us into how technology in the Pokémon world has advanced over time. Now that I've got something down for a review, it's probably safe to say that this is the last time I'll watch 4Ever, but it was a pretty big part of my childhood, and I was surprised as I was rewatching it to realize that I remembered just about every scene pretty vividly.
