Pokémon Live!/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Non Sequitur Scene: Two Perfect Girls.
  • Crowning Music of Awesome; You Just Can't Win for all the fans who would've liked to see Ash and Giovanni actually face each other.
    • Team Rocket's Rockin' (Double Trouble) is pretty damn awesome. As is Giovanni's Villain Song.
  • Ham and Cheese: Darren Dunstan's performance as Giovanni is reminiscent of Raul Julia in the Street Fighter live-action film.
  • Level Breaker: Most of the songs are well-sang, and many are quite heartfelt, but as soon as the word "Pokemon" pops up, you can't help but laugh a little bit.
  • Moral Event Horizon: Giovanni orders MechaMew2 to attack Ash, a 10 year old boy whom he knows is the child of his ex-girlfriend, directly.
  • So Bad It's Good: Again, it probably would have been just plain good if Pokemon hadn't been involved. Or if the production value had just been better...
  • Tear Jerker: The song "The Time Has Come".
    • Ash's talk with his mom in the last scene is one of the heartwarming kind.
    • "I've Got A Secret", too.
