A true masterpiece of the Pokemon franchise, this 20 minute rollercoaster is action-packed yet has a heartwarming undertone that teaches us about friendship and that hardwork can overcome all obstacles; in this case a toppled ramschackle playground. There are also light-hearted moments of comedy that will have you rolling in the aisles, hint: Snorlax antics!. there is no true villain in this short story, it is far, far too complex for that, however, some pokemon do generate antipathy from the audience. Namely, the houndor, however, in the end he bands together with his fellow Pokemon to complete a feat of architecture so magical that it searsthe viewer's very retinas with sheer awesome.

LOL that was my first response whenever i started watching this. here i thought i was going to be watching the third pokemon movie and i got this twenty minute short all about pikachu and the other pokemon around the city they were visiting. i found the story of friendship and fun to be cute, heartwarming, and funny. not much else can really be said about it, this short side story is just cuteness of the pokemon series. it is one that features itself around the pokemon this time, not with battles and trainers. classic pokemon art, narration, voice acting all keep it original andenjoyable for fans of the series in the past. overall, this is not something to fast forward through when watching the third movie. take the time to watch it and laugh a little, enjoy it! i know this is a rather short review but honestly, not much can be said about this a twenty minute short other than it is pure fun and cute. i think anyone who is a fan of the pokemon series will find this to be enjoyable and worth watching :)
