The 21st Pokemon film is due out at the end of this week but it's making one very large change to the series canon. Pokemon the movie: I choose you! is a retelling of the first season of the Pokemon anime, during which Ash and Pikachu meet for the first time and go on their first adventure together. If you have seen it, you can remember that an integral part of the first season of the anime, featured both Brock and Misty, who leave their respective gyms to travel alongside ASH and have been featured in a number of seasons and films thereafter but, with this new movie, Ash's history is changing. Kotaku has reported that the newest film will replace both of the characters for two brand new companions, Makoto and Souji, as well as a handful of other characters we've yet to see. The movie also appears to promote the latest legendary Pokemon, Marshadow, along the slides introducing Ash's new friends. While the movie appears to play out many of the original events, removing two of the series most memorable characters is an odd move. Pokemon the movie: I choose you! does not have a North American release date at this time but will be out in Japan July 15th.
