FILM NOTES

Pokémon: The Movie 2000 was released in North America by Warner Bros. Pictures in July 2000, following the unprecedented theatrical success of the first Pokémon film. Adapted from the original Japanese production by OLM, Inc., it arrived at the peak of the global Pokémon phenomenon and remains a significant artifact of late-1990s animated cinema and the franchise's cultural reach.

This cell captures three consecutive 35mm frames from a nighttime outdoor scene featuring Professor Oak, Delia Ketchum, and Mr. Mime. Delia is visible holding an orange umbrella and shopping bags, with Mr. Mime beside her and Professor Oak prominent in the foreground. The sequential frames offer a rare sense of motion and continuity from this beloved supporting cast moment.
