Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Pokémon: The Power of Us, known in Japan as Pocket Monsters: Everyone's Story, is the 21st Pokémon: The Series movie by OLM Incorporated, the first to be directed by Tetsuo Yajima, and the first to be written by Shuji Umehara and Aya Takaha. It was released on July 13, 2018.While it takes place in the same universe as the previous movie and features Lugia like Pokémon 2000 did, the story is vastly different. It also features the third mythical Pokémon from Generation VII, Zeraora.Once a year, a "wind festival" is held in Fula City, the city where people live together with the wind. On the final day of the festival, the legendary Pokémon Lugia will appear and give the people the blessed wind, a promise said to date back to the distant past. Risa, the highschooler and Pokémon rookie. Callahan, the braggart that just can't stop telling tall tales. Toren, the timid researcher that lacks confidence. Harriet, the old eccentric that hates Pokémon. Margo, the mysterious little girl that hangs around in the forest all by herself.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })While they're participating in the festival, Ash and Pikachu meet these five companions by pure coincidence. Each of them has their own worries on their mind, and are unable to take a step forward together with their partner Pokémon, but when they meet each other, the cogs of destiny start turning...Will the promise with Lugia be kept? And just what is the true identity of the mythical Pokémon Zeraora? Everyone's friendship, both people's and Pokémon's, will now cause a miracle to occur.It was the final Pokémon film to feature Unshō Ishizuka as the narrator before he died less than one month after its release.Followed by Mewtwo Strikes Back—Evolution (though that film does not take place in this continuity) and then by Pokémon: Secrets of the Jungle, which serves as a sequel set in the same continuity.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })

comment
Chekhov's Gun: Risa being a long-distance runner comes in handy when she is the only one who can put the Eternal Flame back in place before dawn. The precious box Harriet keeps on her while her home is being ransacked by Pokémon is the key that activates the propellers on the wind plant. The Lum Berries Team Rocket were selling become key to a new antidote after the first one fails. Ash's compassion for Pokémon, first shown when he frees the rampaging Tyranitar from the cords around its neck during the catching contest, ends up being very useful in befriending the similarly-enraged Zeraora.

comment
Mythology Gag: Lugia's theme from the Japanese version of Pokémon 2000 returns as a Recurring Riff for Lugia's appearances. Togepi using Metronome to help save the day? Misty's used it quite a bit in the anime (including The Power of One), but this time Harriet and Callahan see it plain as day and are shocked at a giant Hydro Cannon coming from the little egg.

The Stinger: Two of them. First there's Risa coming back to visit her brother in the hospital at which point it's revealed that he was the announcer of the PokéRun Channel program that's been seen throughout the movie as well as Ash and Pikachu running towards their next adventure, and the second which is a brief teaser for the next movie featuring Mewtwo's voice asking "Where am I? Who am I" and a CG shot of Mewtwo's eyes opening. The latter isn't seen in international screenings.

Humans Are the Real Monsters
 Pokémon: The Power of Us / int_4ac8b81f
comment
Humans Are the Real Monsters: Zeraora's reason for hating humans comes from the fact that, in the past, a forest fire decimated a whole mountain region, but humans ran away and left Pokémon to die in the fire. While Zeraora saved as many as it could, it grew angry at them, which only got worse when humans found out about its existence and poachers tried to capture it.

comment
Adaptational Attractiveness: Ash has rounder features, larger eyes, and a softer outline, giving him a more bishonen-esque look. It's in stark contrast to the more angular designs pre-Sun and Moon, including the previous movie.

comment
Revisiting the Roots: Pulls elements from 2000 and Heroes, as well as having a lot of Generation II Pokémon featured prominently. As mentioned, the English dub's subtitle even references the subtitle of Pokémon 2000, The Power of One. Toren as a shy, green haired person whose partner is a Chansey is very similar to Cheryl from Pokémon Diamond and Pearl.

Expy: Harriet is this to Sorrel from the previous movie. The main crux that completely separates both of them being too similar is the fact that unlike Sorrel getting over his dead Luxray through getting another Pokémon, Harriet didn't, and her pain from losing her Snubbull eventually lead to her hatred of all Pokémon.
