I mean, when we meet Pikachu, he doesnвЂ™t want to be in a PokГ©ball because heвЂ™s afraid of it. We never really understand how that kind of existence can look to those who donвЂ™t want it.

IвЂ™m not gonna go full вЂњPokГ©mon is slavery,вЂќ butВ it is weird when you think that a PokГ©mon pretty much exists to be captured, trained for battle, and made to fight. The interesting thing about MewtwoвЂ™s conflict with humanity is the question of PokГ©monвЂ™s purpose outside of being literal battle monsters. Mewtwo learns: вЂњThe circumstances of oneвЂ™s birth are irrelevant it is what you do with the gift of life that determines who you are.вЂќ Mewtwo, Mew, and the clones leave, but not before Mewtwo turns back time (how?) and erases everyoneвЂ™s memories of what happened. Stunned by AshвЂ™s sacrifice, Mewtwo realizes that not all humans are terrible and that fighting isnвЂ™t the answer, nor is destroying all of humanity. Okay fine, you donвЂ™t want to be moved.ДЄnyway, the tears of the PokГ©mon are able to heal and revive Ash. ItвЂ™s one of the saddest scenes in anime history, and I dare you to not be moved. Throughout the battle, only Pikachu and Meowth choose not to fight, and Ash eventually tries to bring a stop to the violence by putting himself between psychic blasts from Mewtwo and Mew, the colliding attacks turn Ash to stone. Feeling slighted by his creators, in true sci-fi nature, he plots revenge against humanity. Mewtwo rebels against this because, unlike most other PokГ©mon, he has independent thought, is able to speak, and has no desire to be anyoneвЂ™s slave. Giovanni, the leader of Team Rocket, is the one who organizes this project, because he wants to create a PokГ©mon weapon. PokГ©mon: The First Movie, released just over 20 years ago on July 18, 1998, is about the genetically engineered PokГ©mon Mewtwo, based on the genetic makeup of the legendaryВ psychic cat Pokemon Mew. (Note: I will be using all the of the English/Dub names because IвЂ™ve never seen Pokemon subbed, and IвЂ™m not going to pretend.

If you didnвЂ™t cry during this movie, you ainвЂ™t fam, because not only is this movie really good (so good your parents werenвЂ™t mad about you taking them), but it actually raised some interesting philosophical questions about the nature of PokГ©mon. Get your tissues ready, because weвЂ™re about to talk about PokГ©mon: The First Movie (full title PokГ©mon: The First Movie: Mewtwo Strikes Back).
