Pokemon: Movie 1 – MewTwo Strikes Back
Giovanni, the leader of Team Rocket, had ambitious plans to take over the
world, involving his latest experiment, a powerful clone of Mew—Mewtwo. Mewtwo
is very powerful, and also very smart—smart enough to not want to be
controlled by Giovanni. It escaped from the lab, and now Mewtwo begins to
concoct its own scheme, clandestinely inviting a number of Pokémon Trainers to
the ultimate test. Of course, if it's an event for talented Trainers, Ash
Ketchum will be right in the front row!
Ash's excitement turns to fear and anger when Mewtwo reveals its plan for
domination, creating powerful clones of all of the kids' Pokémon so it can even
the ""imbalance"" between Pokémon and their Trainers. Despite Ash's protests,
Mewtwo refuses to believe that Pokémon and people can be friends. But faced
with the determination of a young Trainer and the love of his Pokémon, Mewtwo
just might have to reconsider, especially when pitted against the power of the
mysterious Mew!
