I thought it's gonna be released in both Dub and Sub versions? But it looks fantastic!

That new title is a nice callback to the Orange Islands movie, but I don't even think the review at Dogasu's Backpack, or this site, even bothered to mention what Lugia does in this film.

Hopefully Nintendo adds this movie to eShop. I would love to watch this on my Switch.

It's too bad Pokemon movies don't get wide releases in US theaters anymore. But they played the I Choose You movie at my local theater though I wasn't able to make it to see it, so maybe they'll play this movie too.

I hope they actually use Lugia's English theme in the movie, since i find it to be much better than the Japanese one

The Pokemon Movie 21 should named The Story of Everybody, not The Power of Us though. Still, it going to be really nice to be dubbed on English.

The new title is almost certainly a play on the second film's dub tagline, "The Power of One."

Exactly, the dub is just trying to lean into people's nostalgia for the 2000 film, though if they wanted a name closer to the Japanese, they could have used "Our Story" or "The Story of Us".

It will NEVER get an official subbed release.

Yeah, well, that is, just like, you know, your opinion man. It will happen one day.

It's actually not an opinion, it's the reality of the business. Kids' anime usually never gets a subbed release. What will it take for you to wake up and smell the coffee?

Honestly man, it is an opinion for me and yes, it SHOULD be in both Dub and Sub versions for sure!
