I've got to say, I had no interest in this originally, and I'm not really a Pokemon fan, but that was...a hell of a trailer (and a very sassy looking JigglyPuff). I think I might see this in theatre.

This reminds me of Who Framed Roger Rabbit?, which is a great thing. I like the direction they're taking.

I didn't know about it until now. I'll definitely go see it. I'm not a Pokémon fan, but this looks entertaining.
