Movie time! We decided to bust out the popcorn before moving into the Galar Dex, checking out a short and a movie: Pikachu & Pichu, and Pokemon the Movie: The Power of Us. The short is no Pikachu's Vacation, but it's a decent enough little Pikachu side adventure. The movie, though? It's ambitious, for better and for worse. I bet it's the only Pokemon movie to star a gyaru.
