Description Straight from Cool Ape, it's the Pokémon colosseum movie you probably already saw.

It might as well be a parody of every Pokémon game , with the core joke being that all people in the Pokémon world solve any problem with Pokémon matches, especailly if they don't make sense.

I specifically chose Colosseum since that game tries the hardest to tell a straight dark epic adventure, making the typical silly Pokémon tropes look even more out of place.

I love it how the kidnappers from the beginning of the game challenge the hero to a match to silence him after witnissing the kidnap. As if defeating him in a Poké match makes him lose his ability to still go to the police anyway.
Also, having a public Pokématch in a city filled with people obsessed with Pokématches hardly seems the best strategy if you want to sneak out undetected.

Anyway, Wes, the hero of the story. He starts off very interestingly, stealing an object from the villain's hideout and blowing it up. I mean, wow! A pro-active hero for a change! And bad ass to boot!
Alas, it's only the opening, as soon as the game really starts, Wes instantly turns into your usual mute spineless idiot hero.
Which is why Wes awkwardly wiggles around like a carbon cut out for most of my parody.

Other jokes need explaining? There's the obligatory reference to Wes stealing the other trainers Pokemon yet they never being bothered by it, and..that were all jokes I think.

Oh, some Pokemon I drew in the background are a generation too far to be appearing in this flash movie, sorry.
I just took a handfull of modern Pokémon to avoid only using the classic ones. Just imagine the too recent Pokémon were illegally imported by their trainers from the later Regions or something.

Thanks to Molly,Luke, Silvia, Mike, Matt, Stephan and Danbuster for voices.

I absolutely love this flash, but there's one thing that bugs me:

Wasn't the main character part of the villains before he steals the thingy? 'Cause I'm pretty sure that's how it went.

Unless you did say that and I missed it.

It´s never outright stated in this flash, tough I don´t contradict it either.
At one point, Rui mentions Wes looks like an ex/terrorist.

I knew Wes was part of Team Snatchem, but it´s not really that relevant to the plot or jokes.

You know, it's just as well that they would ask for a Pokemon match for his silence. I betcha if he had reported it to the police, the police wouldn't have believed him unless he beat them in a Pokemon match first.

And this satire, if I may use the word, only goes to show you that pokemons aren't pets, but are, in fact, tools. You take them from their natural environment, then you use them to battle for the rest of their lives; in another point of view, these games are the equivalent of a giant cock fighting tournament, but with a greater variety of animals instead of just chickens. Not that I'm defending anything, but I find they do a better job representing the affection towards the pokemons in the cartoon then they do in the games and that's probably because the hero in the games doesn't speak or do anything but battle.

In any case, this was really funny. Keep up the amusing!

Rogerregorroger In reply to obituarydevil [2011-07-14 07:11:18 +0000 UTC]

Tough I suppose humans have always used pets as tools.
Maybe less so in our current society, but definitly in the past.

From a satire perspective, I'd be more concerned if the humans in the Pokémon world are even capeble of doing anything by themselves.
Police officers do little more then train police dog pokemon and run after them, farmer only train farm pokemon and command them, etcetera.

From the anime, the job ruination I liked most was super heroes.
In one episode there's a guy who dresses up in a super hero costume, dashes after criminals and then has Pokémon matches with them to defeat the super villains. Because, you know, you totally need a secret identity to do that sorta thing.

Hah, if all Pokémon would suddenly rebel against the humans, their entire society would crumble apart in a day.

I was gonna put the ponies on the other side, leading the revolution (can't understand humans but can speak to pokemon), but actually your way round won't leave a sour taste in anyone's mouth at reading adorable ponies leading an only slightly justifiable revolution.

Well, they can.. um.. open doors? Run storage services and businesses? Teach children? I'm wrestling my brain into finding job opportunities here; it ain't that easy.

Seriously? Superhero trainers? In which season? That's frickin' hilarious! I don't know what to say to that. ...I guess, if a world where most conflicts are resolved with pokemon matches can also have firearms, a superhero doesn't seem too far-fetched.

A day? Try an hour: chaos is fast! But pokemon rebellion, that would make for a great game. Or a spoof of Hitchcock's "The Birds."

Rogerregorroger In reply to obituarydevil [2011-07-15 08:32:59 +0000 UTC]

Open doors, run storage services..hmm... Well, okay, you got me there.
Pokemon probably can't do any complex farming and stock stores either.

Nevertheless, I'm still convinced human kind will be near paralyzed if the Pokemon refused to cooperate anymore.
Altough the Pokemon will have equal problems as you so kindly explained, so they'll both be doomed. What a cheerful doom scenenario.
Then again, Mewtwo seems to have created some sort of pokemon society for his clones in the 4th movie or something, so appearently some pokemon, at least Mewtwo, are capeble in creating a simple self contained society.

The super hero trainer episode was in season 3 I think.. That is, after the orange islands, when Brock replaced Tracy again. But don't ask me the episode number. It's about the time I finally realized almost every episode of Pokemon is exactually the same as the one before, there was zero contuity or story archs ever getting close to being resolved, so I lost interest.

Heh, "the birds" spoof? That horror movie worked because it's subtle, and the unsettling premise of having birds that we consider to be weak and unthreatening animals being much more dangerous then we'd care to admit.
Replacing that with fireblasting and ice beam blasting monster birds kinda destroys that premise.
Hah, Hitchock's The bird on steroids, directed by Micheal Bay.
It could be amusing.

obituarydevil In reply to Rogerregorroger [2011-07-16 05:05:30 +0000 UTC]

Wait, so that means that humans can't survive without pokemons and vice versa; in other terms, one cannot survive without the other. Well, who knew that in a conversation about pokemon, we'd stumble onto Harry Potter territory. That's funny.
Oh yeah, the clone society. I wonder how that's doing. Even if pokemon were able to create a society of their own, that would still leave the humans to fend of for their own. That's a terrifying thought; imagine if that happened to our society with technology.

Hehe, I just stopped watching (sometime in the Johto series) because I couldn't keep up with the shows. (...not that it matters apparently...) And don't worry, I'll be able to find it; I'm very persistent.

Yeah, that's true. In fact, the movie worked so well, it kinda scared my mom every time she went for her shift at the hospital. (There were usually huge flocks of birds around the hospital.)
This is Bay though: now it's to try and see how he could fit in the obligatory explosions. Maybe a flock of American harpy eagle hurling 1k pounds of C4 into a building and somehow igniting it. (I don't know where they would get that, but that's Bay's problem.)

Rogerregorroger In reply to obituarydevil [2011-07-16 07:56:36 +0000 UTC]

The explosions come from the birds of course, it's pokemon.
There's a whole bunch of legendary pokemon birds, I'm sure they can shoot all the explosive laser beams you need.
And otherwise he makes it up, like Bay cares for consistecy with the source material.

There's at least one huge advantage of having Bay here with a Birds parody, his annoying human characters can finally get killed off here.

That or, you know, a bird pokemon that knows self-destruct.
And I'm pretty sure he'll keep the more annoying humans for the entire duration of the movie anyways. I guess the death of these characters makes it a more rewarding experience in the end.
