I would watch that sooo many times. If only it did exist it would be one of the greatest movies ever.
Was I the only one who found this to be a terrible attempt at a gritty joke? I didn't like this at all. 
Where is the information on it being fake? From what I see someone put the time and effort to put together an HD trailer with relatively decent CGI (considering the cost of low budget fan made productions) and release it to the world. I don't think there are that many fans (especially with an incredibly and sooo unNintendo western style) who would undertake quite such an elaborate hoaxTerminate421 said:
EDIT: Just found a few things that say the people involved don't want to make a true movie. Shame. They obviously have the ability to. Lets just enjoy this and indulge our imaginations then
EDIT 2: Just realized you meant fake as in not official. Well a thumbs up and a thigh slap with accordion background for you dumb ass, it's been posted as a fan-made project. Not sure how to take the don't want to make a movie info I read though, perhaps that was conjecture too. Ugh the internets piss me off, can they just release the full project before Nintendo carpet bomb them please
HAH! Pause at :16 read the news ticker at the bottom!
I think some of you should understand it...

I watched the trailer thinking I would be able to see this movie some day.
Now I know I won't :'(

Don't let the artwork deter you...It'd really good and oh...The Pokemon Trainers Get to actually FIGHT.
FYI, I am relatively certain Pikachu and all the pokemon were designed with slight differences to avoid copyright issues. Granted, this should be protected under the Parody law. So perhaps he was made to appear mangled and nigh anorexic because he was being abused. Regardless, that is just awesome in so many levels. I would live at the threate to see this repeatedly if it were a movie. My favorite childhood show, dark and gritty? Epic!
Nah, they'll likely just let us vote for it as 'viewer's choice' and then choose something else because the video quality is slightly higher...Therumancer said:Maybe some day The Escapist will approach the makers of some of these short clips to actually produce a full version in episodes as the next "There will be Brawl" or "Doomsday Arcade".
It's a damn shame that around this time last year we could have been watching a series, about Pokemon, just like this on the Escapist.
But instead we ended up with Good Knight's Quest.
(Granted it's very well shot and edited, but the humour is virtually non-existent and the first season episodes too short for anything of note to happen.)
I've still not really forgiven you for that, Escapist...

Absolutely love it. My son loves Pokemon, but this is a little too much for him today. In a few years I'll show it to him...
Nice... I like dark & gritty redesigns, so this is right up my alley... though seeing Pikachu beat up like that was sorta painful...
I think it looks silly. But, I couldn't do better.
EDIT: The pokemon animation is what I meant by silly. I think the ideas are pretty cool.
