This is a commercial for the upcoming Pokemon World Championships 2023 in Yokohama, Japan that takes place in August, and it's some of the best animation that the franchise has produced so far. The fights are fluid and quick, the artwork is bright and colorful, the music is fitting to the theme of the video from the opening shot into the building and into the arenas. It makes you want to be there to experience the action. And of course, the video is packed full of references. So anyone with a keen eye and knowledge of the series could spot out some of the finer detailsthat have sneakily been put in.

Certainly a short that you can't miss out on.

Overall score: 7/10.
