First Japanese Trailer For the 21st Pokemon Movie Released

This is the first look at the trailer for the 21st Pokemon movie, set to release in Japan on July 13, 2018.

Although the full title has not been revealed, it should live up to its full potential. From the looks of the trailer, there will be a new female character (name currently unknown). Ash is sporting the same hat as in the 20th movie, but this movie has a new, great twist. The movie has changed directors!!! This time instead of Kunihiko Yuyama, who has directed all 20 of the previous movies, this time Tetsuo Yajima will be the director. It should add a breath of fresh air to the Pokemon movie franchise. There should be all kinds of movie goods available on Pokevault around June, as soon as the movie nears the release date. Stay tuned for more information.
