Butler the magician and his assistant Diane introduce them to Jirachi, a wish-granting Pokémon that emerges every thousand years, when the Millennium Comet appears in the sky. Max and Jirachi quickly bond. Butler tries to exploit the energy Jirachi receives from the comet to regenerate an extinct Pokémon. He accidentally creates a monster that Ash, Max, and Jirachi have to defeat, but it's not the kind of world-threatening menace that throw the previous Pokémon features out of balance. Adults may find the film tedious, but Pokémon-playing children will enjoy it. (Not rated, suitable for ages 6 and older: minor cartoon violence) --Charles Solomon

    out of all the direct to video sequels this was by far the best, it had the best plot, best drama, best action, and best entertainment value

    This was probably the best Pokemon movie. The music in the background was pretty good as well. Jirachi's voice fit it perfectly and the friendship between it and Max was nice.

    My friend decided to play this when I was at his house for some reason. The fact that I didn't even remember watching the movie until just now seeing the title makes me think it wasn't that great.

    This is a good film and one where the story of how an acient pokemon had the power to supposedly grant wishes. But it has power to create powerful evil creatures according to one man's evil will. The story has good characters and great effects, with great Pokemon to boot!

    (Viewed Japanese Version) Even though it covers much of the same ground as the 3rd and 4th movies, there are some nice storytelling moments here.
