Mewtwo Strikes Back Evolution remakes the Pokémon franchise’s first film in full CG, and the trailer shows Ash and pals like we’ve never seen them before.
But it’s the designs for the humans in Mewtwo Strikes Back Evolution that are going to take the most time to get used to.
Sort of like how 2017’s theatrical Pokémon feature, I Choose You, went back to the beginning of protagonist Ash’s/Satoshi’s journey to become a Pokémon Master, Japan’s next Pokémon movie is a retelling of the events of 1998’s Mewtwo Strikes Back, titled Mewtwo Strikes Back Evolution.
But there are actually two movies with CG Pokémon coming out this year, and the second is a made-in-Japan full CG reboot of the very first Pokémon theatrical feature.
