The dad hates Pokémon because they were the cause of his wife’s death. Which we absolutely could have made more clear 😅 The newspaper article has the story there. And at first he just throws it out. Being skeptical of it being actually alive or not. Then thinking his daughter just brought it back in he takes it out and gives it a good look still wondering if it’s alive or not because it doesn’t seem to be. (Part of Banette’s personality) Then when banette shows up sitting on his daughters bed and the dad thinking the Pokémon is breaking in and coming into his daughters room he wants to lock it up and burn it. This is a harsh reaction but from a man who recently lost his wife to a Pokémon we thought it felt real. He has that temptation to burn it but ultimately doesn’t go through with it. We tried to play on a lot of subtext but thought I’d just share with you some of our thoughts and I hope that helps to see with what is happening in the story. We are SO appreciative of you watching it and we are always trying to improve as filmmakers/storytellers! ☺️
@@zogwin I noticed the newspaper piece and the subtext alright, the only thing that wasn't very clear is what was the "unknown" pokemon not even the pokedex could identify. My guess would be a haunter tho, as those are really creepy in the game pokedex lore and known to attack humans.
Just wow, this was awesome. And for those who say Banette looks too “Cloth and fake” that’s the point of Banette it’s a LITERAL living doll, your Banette design is exactly how I would picture a real life Banette looking
Imagine if he didn't activate the ultra ball before he threw it and just ended up beaning Mimikyu in the face with a 90mph fastball. Super effective! Mimikyu fainted! Dad got 359 exp points!
I like how at the beginning, Banette started as a raggedy old cloth doll, and slowly became more developed as the film went on. Also lived the Mimikyu. I can imagine it's mad because Banette stole it's cloth.
I feel like in the world of pokemon having a ghost type or dark type would almost be needed just in case of ghost type pokes being vindictive or just acting like jerks. :P
@@SilentHotdog28 A few of the Dark-type Pokedex entries are nearly as bad as the Ghosts'. If you can find one you'll trust with your kid, then sure, but if not? Something else with a Dark move or two.
@@user-CassRack4207 I thought the same, they should've traded with an experienced trainer who could control it, and get a normal type as a pet. (Normal so thay they can't deal nor get superefective damage with banette)
Ok from what I got from the newspaper clipping is that the mom Maggie was in a Pokémon battle with a fellow trainer but a stray Pokémon attack was accidentally thrown off course and was about to hit a bystander so she got in the way but lost her life instead. That’s why the dad doesn’t want his child to become a trainer he doesn’t want to lose her too and why he’s doesn’t really like Pokémon for he blames them for his wife’s death
This is legit the best Pokémon horror content out there: it's not overly edgy and doesn't rely on cheap tricks like gore and cursing (in the bad word sense, I mean), it's well acted, and it uses 100% canon facts. Great job!
If they make a series out of this they should defitnitely take you up on that idea!!! P.s I wonder how its Mega form would look like in this live action universe.
Well, they could do this, but then they would need a licence from Nintendo. But if you realy want one: No one can stop you from making one of your own. :)
Its epic, so lets share it all. But this is the only Poke-Content on this channel, so i kinda fear that it will stay so, which is sad. Lets hope they dive right into this.
@Jesus Santos Banette came out back when Ruby and Sapphire released. It's a pretty decent Pokemon in the last couple 3DS games due to its Mega Evolution.
There were episodes in the new season that shows that pokemon can kill people. Cofagrigus kidnaps a human and traps them in a coffin to mummify them. Trapinch hides in the sand waiting for prey and creates a whirpool of a quick sand with it on the center and gobbles them up. Eternatus is an appocalyptic pokemon that makes pokemon gigantamax and destroy everything on their path.
Won't understand the great ball... But with Bannette.... I can and will force my own kid to throw it away... Even if my kid will hate me for that... I don't care if I get reported... Its a GHOST not a animal... and not only that.. A kind of ghost who PLACES CURSES ON THEIR TRAINERS!!!!!!!!!!!
@@notluxpax1994 You do realise they do that to those who abandon it. If you keep it, it will not inflict its hate on you because it has no hate for you.
Very neat! Theres a couple things that prod at my brain though. Both Banette and the Mimikyu seem to act in decent contrast to what their lore suggests, with Banette being vengeful and seeking revenge, and Mimikyu being desperate for acceptance as well as not wanting to be seen as anything other than its disguise. Makes me wonder who damaged it or hurt its disguise. Also as far as the family goes, in a Pokemon world, one would hope they’d send that ball off to a center or something, instead of just whacking it into the woods, for someone to inevitably find and release a pissed off and abandoned Pokemon.
This was a really good film. I especially liked the juke you guys threw to make the audience think Banette is the one behind everything, when really it was an undisguised Mimikyu causing the problems, and Banette was actually trying to protect them because the girl started caring for it. The subtle hints that not everything was as it seemed really helped sell the story.

As a longtime Pokemon fan, I absolutely loved this! The conflict, the battle, and the conflict resolution were all written extremely well. Now, if youll excuse me, imma go make myself a Banette doll like the one shown here, cuz its too cool not to have 💕
I love how banette uses the needle which I think that’s really cool. They made banette really adorable for some reason. The sounds it made was so adorable.but the sound of it getting hurt is sad 😢. Plus it’s interesting how you guys took mimikyu’s direction. Really cool. Hope you do more of these in the future.
From one group of pokéfan filmmakers to another, this was great. Featuring Banette felt fresh, and was a perfect choice for a more horror-inspired pokémon story- well done!
@@howardjones1388 Not really. Banette was already thrown away, so it already had PTSD, but apparently not strong one. So no, the Banette is unlikely to attack cause its now Happy with a New Child.
Poor mimikyu was probably just playing a little too rough, seeing how she loved the banette it probably thought "I like this one, maybe it likes me, oh I know let's play!"
*Gets emotional seeing a menacing Mimikyu get caught. It's now an ally, and part of the family where he can find love and... (Gets yeeted by said family via baseball bat the next day) WTF?!?!? *2 Weeks later is found in another family who will likely take it in and give it love. Maybe having more than one ghost pokemon per house is a lot of trouble? Anyway, this is still great and I'd love to see more live action pokemon stuff from these guys.
The algorithm powera that be brought me to tbis video. I normally bash on RUclips's algorithic shenanigans, but this time they dis a good job. This was a phenomenal video. This literally puts most live action Pokemon vids to shame easily. The acting, effects, music, all of it was fantastic.
Poor thing just needs something to wear! Everyone knows Mimikyu prefer to be hidden from view. Banette could even help make a little costume for it and they could be ghost-type pals
Speaking of favorite Pokemon, my five favorite Ghost-type Pokemon are as follows (most to least): Lunala Froslass Chandelure (female) Aegislash (female as a reference to Fi from The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword) Sableye
I am a Japanese pokémon trainer living in Japan. My favorite Pokemon is Juppeta（Banette is Juppeta in Japanese）. For some reason, it suddenly appeared as a recommendation. Thanks to that, I am happy to have come across a video from three years ago. I am happy to meet a film in which Juppeta plays the main role. However, I was never able to fully understand this film. There are several doubts. Why was Juppeta in this house? Why did Mimikyu attack Amber? Why did Juppeta help Amber? I've come up with my own answers to these questions, but I don't really know the answers.
I can assume that Banette(Juppeta) helped Amber because at first she wanted to keep him. She thought he would cute, it was the dad who threw him out. I guess he wanted to protect Amber because she was nice to him.
bruh, throwing away a newly caught Pokemon and with a BASEBALL BAT?! That is ABANDONMENT, SIR! but for real, this film is so well made. the realistic depiction of Banette is so cute too
@@pumpkin7446 Mimikyu is evil in some Pokedex entries others not just like so many others. Don't think it's a species thing but individual like any creature can be good or bad depending on how their lives has been. This one definitely seemed evil I'd have sunk that ultra ball into quick dry cement then tossed it in the ocean to spend eternity imprissoned and gave bannette a Stern talking-to about being creepy we're on the same team now stop sneaking about just chill with us like a homie
@@historyofvideogamesandmyop2913 Pokedex entries are HILARIOUSLY inconsistent/over exaggerated and some even call themselves out on being inconsistent.
@@pumpkin7446 yes I totally agree but it's the only way we know they act in different regions. Just like real animals act differently to some extent in different wild places compared to others
This is absolutely (without a doubt) the best Pokémon story I've seen, in quite a long time. And the fact that it's live action and tells a wholesome story embodies everything I love about Pokémon.
Finds out the doll is a living breathing pokemon... puts it in the trash Captures a pokemon... bats it into the woods He was married to a trainer, you'd think he'd know how these things work. :/
@@reginlief1 We'll you see stranger, I've been watching over the two of you twins since you were babies. Think of me as Obi-Wan Kenobi. There is another "you" out there.
i think there is a tiny misstake the dad never trew a pokeball before he was a pitcher for a baseball team it says so in the news article about the wifes death as she was the pokemon trainer
I liked the subtext a lot... the previous owners likely had a lot of problems with mimikyu or other ghost pokemon and left banette behind to guard the house and the future owners. They must've loved and trusted it a lot.
Oh my God, my heart. I love this so damn much. I can FEEL the love that went into this project. It's so grounded, so well edited & the acting was great. Not over the top, no weird cuts, very grounded & detailed editing. I love this so much. THIS feels like such a love letter to Pokemon as a whole. Absolutely amazing.
This is something real, i mean if pokemon were real, our parents would have denied us the wish to be a pokemon trainer, and we will kinda feel forced of what they want us to do......
This has to be made into a series. I fell in love with the script. Im all for making this happen. Praise to your supporting cast for making it so suspenseful. And Nintendo has to cut y'all a check...
At first I thought this was a movie the way that opening scene went on but this is good like really good and if it was a movie I would totally go watch it digitally and physically
10:05 god damn that moment got me, i literally grabbed and my head with both hands and shook for a second honestly though this was an amazing project and exact proof that a live action pokemon series is doable while still being grounded in reality
@@briancasual6760 sorry dude it's not my attention, but for me commentary section is always AFTER the video cause people speak about the video herself ^^
Pokedex identifies mimiku Girl: "dad, it's a pokemon!" Really? What else would it be?? Aside from that and neither one of them knowing what to do with a captured pokemon, i really liked the graphics and effects.
Seriously. It's probably weird, but I get mad at the TV show every time a character says "is that a pokemon?" Im like what the heck do you think it is?

Uh no it’s don’t hurt ghost types thier all cute and if your a true Pokémon fan you would know the the captured Pokémon is mimikyu because it’s shadow claws are cries belong to this mimikyu Pokémon and yes I like mimikyu so I know a lot about it
I enjoy the fact you are not a screamer and you have a very relaxing voice. Your shiny reactions are always the best! I wish you more great hunt surprises like the Nacli one
Ok, firstly: Not saying anything negative to this, its really good. I just feel this needs to be said: In all seriousness, this man has NO survival instinct. If you care enough to not want spoilers, go no further. 1. If I were to live in a world where dangerous ghostly entities and their typical behaviors were SCIENTIFICALLY documented, OFFICIALLY compiled, and made available to CHILDREN, then ANYONE who's looked into that section of the pokedex will see that doll's face and know the danger! 2. The man's wife was a trainer, and he never thought: "Oh I'm curious, I'll skim through this and see what I find." I guarantee that he'd eventually stumble on a ghost entry and get at least some idea about the danger here. 3. Amber even pulled up her dex, the aforementioned OFFICIAL SCIENTIFIC DATABASE of pokemon, and he completely dismisses it without even a ponderance of "Hmm, this might mean something..." 4. If nothing else I always thought that maybe there were public safety announcements or something that would warn people about this stuff. 5. I'll give him some points for realizing that Banette hadn't actually done anything and that it might be willing to help them.
That makes sense, but being it's a short film, it isn't going to be perfect. If they decided to expand on it and go full feature or a mini series even, they could iron out those details. As you said, it doesn't make sense for the father not to be aware of such danger. Hell, I'm a bit surprised he didn't own a Pokemon. Owning one doesn't mean you're necessarily a trainer. You can have one solely as a pet or something than using it for battles and participating in league challenges.
I'm just going to assume that it isn't exactly like that. My thing is, if you capture a bloodthirsty tiger in your house, you don't just drive into the middle of nowhere and dump it there like it's not going to eat someone.
@@ohnowhyme5723 stop being silly the whole badge thing is a game mechanic so your friends don't trade you level 100 pokemon in the begining and you beat the game easily.
Idk why, but it made me tear up a little bit when the daughter looks at her dad as he slowly comes to the realization that he's got to be the pokemon trainer now and catch that mimikyu to protect his family. Very well done.
I loved this short film. The actors were great and the effects were top notch. Also, the world detail, wow. I love how you fleshed out the characters with supporting elements, like the hat, mom photo and newspaper clippings. Lastly, I thought it was awesome that you left it open ended with what happened at two weeks later. Is there any possibility this could develop into a miniseries? It seemed like a great pilot episode. 🤞😀🤞
Thanks for all the kind words William! We are SO stoked you enjoyed it! We have a few things in the pipeline this year. Hopefully some more stuff like this that you'll enjoy! We won't rule out any possibilities. 😊 Thanks again for watching and commenting!

Sir, that's the *only* box
Not to mention, its the box with her dead moms stuff in it. Not exactly the most aware father, is he?
Dayuuummmm
Amen
As a 40yo father of 3, 'no more pokemon' is NEVER the answer
LOL
You are raising them well.

Plot twist/sequel: the mimikyu is cared for and loved by the family that found it
The happy ending
And then they accidentally look at it and die
Never
Awww
I think it´s safe to say that everyone assumed that Banette was gonna be the villain of this story
probably because of its Pokedex entry
I think that was the point. It was a very good plot twist.
I see the hood in banette always. I didn’t think it would be the villain. Probably because it’s my fave ghost type
Yea I wonder why? Couldn’t have been the name “ Banettes curse “ that gave you that conclusion
It's also said that caring for them can calm them. So when the girl really wanted to keep it, I think it formed an attachment to her.
When they yeeted the ultra ball he should of said "Consider yourself released."
Nnyhjh h
competitive players were screaming when they homerunned that mimikyu ultra ball

As a longtime Pokemon fan, I absolutely loved this! The conflict, the battle, and the conflict resolution were all written extremely well. Now, if youll excuse me, imma go make myself a Banette doll like the one shown here, cuz its too cool not to have 💕
jaja
I love how banette uses the needle which I think that’s really cool.
They made banette really adorable for some reason. The sounds it made was so adorable.but the sound of it getting hurt is sad 😢.
Plus it’s interesting how you guys took mimikyu’s direction. Really cool.
Hope you do more of these in the future.
From one group of pokéfan filmmakers to another, this was great. Featuring Banette felt fresh, and was a perfect choice for a more horror-inspired pokémon story- well done!
Until you read how Banette is formed... that family is doomed.
🙏thank you!! That means a lot!!
Jg
@@howardjones1388 Not really.
Banette was already thrown away,
so it already had PTSD, but apparently not strong one.
So no, the Banette is unlikely to attack cause its now Happy
with a New Child.
Your films are trash
Poor mimikyu was probably just playing a little too rough, seeing how she loved the banette it probably thought "I like this one, maybe it likes me, oh I know let's play!"
I think it was being rude because of the Pikachu in her cap. 🤔
@@ivandelgado4594 oh that too, probably feeling a little envious
Basically just a set up for part 2
Mimikyu used PLAY ROUGH...
It's a Little Bit TOO Effective... 😬
@@snaggletoothfps8904 lol
*Gets emotional seeing a menacing Mimikyu get caught. It's now an ally, and part of the family where he can find love and...
(Gets yeeted by said family via baseball bat the next day) WTF?!?!?
*2 Weeks later is found in another family who will likely take it in and give it love.
Maybe having more than one ghost pokemon per house is a lot of trouble?
Anyway, this is still great and I'd love to see more live action pokemon stuff from these guys.
I was going to say the same thing if they couldn't help it out at all maybe they could have sewn it one of the covers 🤦🏼♀️
That's a really good point actually.
The algorithm powera that be brought me to tbis video. I normally bash on RUclips's algorithic shenanigans, but this time they dis a good job. This was a phenomenal video. This literally puts most live action Pokemon vids to shame easily. The acting, effects, music, all of it was fantastic.
The sequel should be a drama-comedy about Mimikyu’s therapy session and soul-searching
Oh... It's searching for souls alright.
How about a sequel those three people befriending mimikyu and keeping it
How about driftloom read the dex about it
Would have been cool if Amber kept Mimikyu and started a Ghost-type team. Would have been an awesome plot for the start of a mini series
Poor thing just needs something to wear! Everyone knows Mimikyu prefer to be hidden from view. Banette could even help make a little costume for it and they could be ghost-type pals
@@ShiftFU id watch it
Prepare for trouble
"We need to throw it (Banette) away"
Hey, don't do this to my second favorite pokemon!
Speaking of favorite Pokemon, my five favorite Ghost-type Pokemon are as follows (most to least):
Lunala
Froslass
Chandelure (female)
Aegislash (female as a reference to Fi from The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword)
Sableye
I am a Japanese pokémon trainer living in Japan.
My favorite Pokemon is Juppeta（Banette is Juppeta in Japanese）.
For some reason, it suddenly appeared as a recommendation.
Thanks to that, I am happy to have come across a video from three years ago.
I am happy to meet a film in which Juppeta plays the main role.
However, I was never able to fully understand this film.
There are several doubts.
Why was Juppeta in this house?
Why did Mimikyu attack Amber?
Why did Juppeta help Amber?
I've come up with my own answers to these questions, but I don't really know the answers.
My favorite pokemon is Huzumatika... 👍😇
I can assume that Banette(Juppeta) helped Amber because at first she wanted to keep him. She thought he would cute, it was the dad who threw him out. I guess he wanted to protect Amber because she was nice to him.
The girl in the beginning be like: hey, I wonder if there are any battling beasts that can kill many things and have god like powers in here
I think we all would like that though
bruh, throwing away a newly caught Pokemon and with a BASEBALL BAT?! That is ABANDONMENT, SIR! but for real, this film is so well made. the realistic depiction of Banette is so cute too
Well the pokemon that attacked his daughter deserved it and banette (my fav) deseverd love (sorry if my spelling bad)
@@glitchedbread5746 wild Pokemon aren't evil(usually), just territorial.
Mimikyu just wants love, which is why it wears a Pikachu disguise
@@pumpkin7446 Mimikyu is evil in some Pokedex entries others not just like so many others. Don't think it's a species thing but individual like any creature can be good or bad depending on how their lives has been. This one definitely seemed evil I'd have sunk that ultra ball into quick dry cement then tossed it in the ocean to spend eternity imprissoned and gave bannette a Stern talking-to about being creepy we're on the same team now stop sneaking about just chill with us like a homie
@@historyofvideogamesandmyop2913 Pokedex entries are HILARIOUSLY inconsistent/over exaggerated and some even call themselves out on being inconsistent.
@@pumpkin7446 yes I totally agree but it's the only way we know they act in different regions. Just like real animals act differently to some extent in different wild places compared to others
This is absolutely (without a doubt) the best Pokémon story I've seen, in quite a long time. And the fact that it's live action and tells a wholesome story embodies everything I love about Pokémon.
ruclips.net/video/Fds0jAFvYs8/видео.html
This is the only one I've seen so I agree
Who is Banette's opponent in this film?
Gotta say, I did not expect the mimiku, thought it would be Bennet that went bad...... What a surprisingly wholesome video
Finds out the doll is a living breathing pokemon... puts it in the trash
Captures a pokemon... bats it into the woods
He was married to a trainer, you'd think he'd know how these things work. :/
Her ghost is gonna come back and kick her husband’s Mudbray
He thought it was a doll untill the very end when the box started shaking.
How are you the only other person who thought these exact same things as me...
@@reginlief1 We'll you see stranger, I've been watching over the two of you twins since you were babies. Think of me as Obi-Wan Kenobi. There is another "you" out there.
@@0001captainawesome lol
The part when the dad throws a pokéball again after so many years... that hit me where it hurt bruh 😢
Yeah bro 😢
Yes 😭
i think there is a tiny misstake the dad never trew a pokeball before he was a pitcher for a baseball team it says so in the news article about the wifes death as she was the pokemon trainer
That bedroom scene when it appears on the bed scared the crap outta me 🤣🤣🤣🤣
haha! Thanks for watching!
LOL same
Same haha😂
Sameeee
That was awesome! :D (and the Banette doll is adorable! I want one!!)
This was absolutely a blast to direct! So many talented people coming together to make something meaningful and fun!
The wedding picture at 8:20 👌 clutch focus pull.
Did you watch or play Pokémon? It seems like you didn’t.
@@trhart6 yes I did:) sorry you feel that way.
@@trhart6 all these flavours and you choose salty! 🧂
Amazing work buddy! Thoroughly enjoyed it
I liked the subtext a lot... the previous owners likely had a lot of problems with mimikyu or other ghost pokemon and left banette behind to guard the house and the future owners. They must've loved and trusted it a lot.
OR the mimikyu murdered the previous owners.
@@brandonweh also possible. Still, banette choises to help the new ownere and was in the house, so chances are that it was loved and cared for.
The best short film I have ever seen please bring more pokemon short films
I love the custom made doll for them.
It’s so much better than just using one from target or the substitute doll like in the anime.
Oh my God, my heart. I love this so damn much. I can FEEL the love that went into this project. It's so grounded, so well edited & the acting was great. Not over the top, no weird cuts, very grounded & detailed editing.
I love this so much. THIS feels like such a love letter to Pokemon as a whole. Absolutely amazing.
Thank you for your kind words!
Not sure I'd say the acting is great, has great production though.
I was fully expecting the banette to be her mother the whole time
This is something real, i mean if pokemon were real, our parents would have denied us the wish to be a pokemon trainer, and we will kinda feel forced of what they want us to do......
Play Pokemon Go
@@ChroniclesAcex7191 bad joke. Literally
😅
@@ChroniclesAcex7191 i mean, do u really think ur parents will let u go easily to be a pokemon trainer if there were real pokemon?
Just wait till we become 18 and start becoming pokemln masters
Banette was cool lookin. Glad somebody picked up the abandoned pokemon. That poke could have been trained and treated properly...
This has to be made into a series. I fell in love with the script. Im all for making this happen. Praise to your supporting cast for making it so suspenseful. And Nintendo has to cut y'all a check...
At first I thought this was a movie the way that opening scene went on but this is good like really good and if it was a movie I would totally go watch it digitally and physically
Thanks David!! We are so glad you liked it!!
I hope they make a actual movie out of this
Did everyone forget that the mimikyu attacked a child
Wait whaa
Honestly I thought that was Banette
It is a banette
Pix L did you not watch the entire video?
I forgot about that pokemon 💀
Mimikyu is one of my favorite pokemon and i love what you did with it here. You also made me remember how much i liked Banette. Thanks and great job.
this movie is worth watching.it feels like there actually pokemon out there
and living among us.i wish it was true
the Dream of everyone who is a Pokémon trainer on his heart
Lol get a jirachi
Even though it can only teleport existing things and can’t make stuff
And that's how Phoebe started her journey to end up as a Hoenn elite 4
This needs more attention
10:05 god damn that moment got me, i literally grabbed and my head with both hands and shook for a second
honestly though this was an amazing project and exact proof that a live action pokemon series is doable while still being grounded in reality
The fact Banette is not the vilain is actually surprising. Good job btw
It kinda sucks that the top comment is a major spoiler. This is the first comment for me on mobile.
@@briancasual6760 sorry dude it's not my attention, but for me commentary section is always AFTER the video cause people speak about the video herself ^^
That's the most tense ball shake I have ever witnessed. Great film.
Pokedex identifies mimiku
Girl: "dad, it's a pokemon!"
Really? What else would it be?? Aside from that and neither one of them knowing what to do with a captured pokemon, i really liked the graphics and effects.
Seriously. It's probably weird, but I get mad at the TV show every time a character says "is that a pokemon?" Im like what the heck do you think it is?
It could be a curse
Very intimate! This was very good. Simple but the conflict and relationship with the pokemon was nice
Dude. This brought tears to my eyes. The nostalgia and pure wonder of adventure Pokémon brings is like nothing else.
Its epic,
so lets share it all.
But this is the only Poke-Content on this channel,
so i kinda fear that it will stay so,
which is sad.
Lets hope they dive right into this.
This could be an Extra on the "Detective Pikachu" movie disc.
@Lola Dunlap is it not realistic enough?
I think so too
Ikr
We need this to be a real live action Pokémon movie
Epic.
But i hope they add a single Second to the overall V-Length,
so its not such a dumb number.
We need more Real Life Pokemon made by People;
not Hollywood (duh, cause they are very woke now).
So i hope they dive into Pokemon,
seeing as this channel barely does so.
This channel and one of the top-comment also saying to be moviemakers, have barely any Pokemon-Content. Which is sad.
Very. We need much, much more, even if it needs Kickstarter and such to do so!
I also like how smart the Little Girl showed herself to be;
but then in the same second, the Father sure reacted weirdly.
After all, she has totally proven ist a Pokemon and not a Doll - so what was
that?
No way this video made me cry when dad throwing the pokeball at Mimikyu loool 😂😂 loved it ❤
That was so scary but really captures what i think real life pokemon would be like 10/10 stars 🌟
"Mom said when I turned 12." I love how this kept up with the logic in pokemon where yeah young children know what they want and are adult enough to decide in this world.
Well,
'owning' a pokemon should be something you do at 5-8, I'd say.
Get used to them; you have to share a World with them, after all!
Amber: I want to be a pokEmon trainer.
Dad: pOkEmOn ArEnT rEaL kId

I think the banette doll is adorable and I’d love it even if it’s old and dirty.
I’m just saying throwing a ghost type out isn’t the smartest

Ok, firstly: Not saying anything negative to this, its really good. I just feel this needs to be said:
In all seriousness, this man has NO survival instinct.
If you care enough to not want spoilers, go no further.
1. If I were to live in a world where dangerous ghostly entities and their typical behaviors were SCIENTIFICALLY documented, OFFICIALLY compiled, and made available to CHILDREN, then ANYONE who's looked into that section of the pokedex will see that doll's face and know the danger!
2. The man's wife was a trainer, and he never thought: "Oh I'm curious, I'll skim through this and see what I find." I guarantee that he'd eventually stumble on a ghost entry and get at least some idea about the danger here.
3. Amber even pulled up her dex, the aforementioned OFFICIAL SCIENTIFIC DATABASE of pokemon, and he completely dismisses it without even a ponderance of "Hmm, this might mean something..."
4. If nothing else I always thought that maybe there were public safety announcements or something that would warn people about this stuff.
5. I'll give him some points for realizing that Banette hadn't actually done anything and that it might be willing to help them.
That makes sense, but being it's a short film, it isn't going to be perfect. If they decided to expand on it and go full feature or a mini series even, they could iron out those details.
As you said, it doesn't make sense for the father not to be aware of such danger. Hell, I'm a bit surprised he didn't own a Pokemon. Owning one doesn't mean you're necessarily a trainer. You can have one solely as a pet or something than using it for battles and participating in league challenges.
I am so happy to have been a part of this! :) It's my childhood come to life! The terror and everything.
Who throws away a pokemon like that tho, after u catch it they listen to u. poor mimikyu 😥
I thought that at first, then I remembered that if you don’t have enough badges some won’t. And it doesn’t sound like either of them have any.
I'm just going to assume that it isn't exactly like that.
My thing is, if you capture a bloodthirsty tiger in your house, you don't just drive into the middle of nowhere and dump it there like it's not going to eat someone.
@@reginlief1 and if they didn't have the badge took control its level?
@@ohnowhyme5723 stop being silly the whole badge thing is a game mechanic so your friends don't trade you level 100 pokemon in the begining and you beat the game easily.
@@ohnowhyme5723 They could have just zapped it back in the ball if it went crazy again.

Idk why, but it made me tear up a little bit when the daughter looks at her dad as he slowly comes to the realization that he's got to be the pokemon trainer now and catch that mimikyu to protect his family. Very well done.
I loved this short film. The actors were great and the effects were top notch. Also, the world detail, wow. I love how you fleshed out the characters with supporting elements, like the hat, mom photo and newspaper clippings. Lastly, I thought it was awesome that you left it open ended with what happened at two weeks later. Is there any possibility this could develop into a miniseries? It seemed like a great pilot episode. 🤞😀🤞
Thanks for all the kind words William! We are SO stoked you enjoyed it! We have a few things in the pipeline this year. Hopefully some more stuff like this that you'll enjoy! We won't rule out any possibilities. 😊 Thanks again for watching and commenting!
I agree it could start with this family finding this Pokémon and one of them being a trainer have their Pokémon battle it.
