2000: The Power of One

Great art book released by Pokemon and includes some very cool shots from the movie with some information on the making of the film!

This book of art from the Pokemon 2000 (Revelation Lugia) movie is wonderful, to say the least. I was greatly impressed, it easily surpassed my expectations. Though the art is fantastic and plentiful, some of the most noteable features is information; the book gives a nice synopsis of the film and the short that was played with it, as well as a nifty little Pokedex for the new Pokemon featured in the movie. It's a great addition to any Pokefan's collection! I highly recommend this one.

This book is really good, but unfortunately I found a few misprints. But, then again, every book has misprints, so I shouldn't be so nit-picky. Also, I noticed something: in this book, Lugia said, "You, who recovered the two treasures, are our best hope," when it's saying that Ash is the Chosen One. But wait! In the movie, Lugia said that only with the help of the true Chosen One (Ash), would the Ice Sphere glow brightly like the other two. So I think they took that particular sentence in the book from the Japanese version of this movie. Also, about those weird drawings on page 44 . . . who drew them? The reason I'm not giving this book less than five stars is because it answered a lot of my questions. I hate to admit, but I didn't really understand the real reason that Moltres and Zapdos were attacking each other in Lawrence's airship. And that's just one example. There were a lot of other things I was sort of confused about that this book explained. Last note: this book tells you the name of the Pokemon collector! Lawrence III! But why doesn't the elderly man (you know, the one who told Ash that the festival was just for the tourists) have a name?
