Thus begins the story

FRANK: Pikachuland is having a festival when the evil

Pikachu Libre suddenly mounts a pikattack!

FRANK: Pikachu Ph.D. and Pikachu Rock Star battle Pikachu Libre,

but the entire ordeal ends in pika-defeat.

CLEMONT: And that's when Super Pikachu

arrives to save the day, right?

FRANK: Right. And Pikachuland is safe once again,

thanks to Super Pikachu!

CLEMONT: But the hero in a superhero movie needs

to lose at least once.

FRANK: Oh. We'll use that brilliant pika-plan!

CLEMONT: This story is getting better by the minute!

JEAN: Thanks so much for helping my grandfather

realize his dream.

SERENA: It's fun!

side ever since he was a kid.

stronger than anyone else I've ever met!

grandfather's dream come true.

PIKACHU

SERENA: Those two sure are embarrassed

SERENA: Now let's interview the director.

Frank, how did you come to love Pikachu so much?

Your thoughts, please.

FRANK: Pikachu have always been a part of my life.

Why, I can't talk about me without talking about Pikachu!

FRANK: You see, I was always sick when I was a young child.

But somehow, Pikachu managed to help keep my spirits up!

FRANK: Whenever I cried,

Pikachu was always there to comfort me.

FRANK : When I was a young lad around your age, we traveled

together, like you do.

We laughed together we struggled together

FRANK: And shared much happiness together!

FRANK: When I found myself in despair,

Pikachu was always there for me.

FRANK: Pikachu brought me more smiles than I could ever

mention. That's why I want to share all of those smiles with

children around the world through my movie.

This is my dream.

PIKACHU BELLE!

FRANK: Mm hm

ASH: It'll be great! Everyone'll love it! No doubt!

PIKACHU

DEDENNE!

FRANK: And CUT! We've got every scene safely in the can!

post-production. And, of course, adding glorious sound!
