Short Synopsis
FROM THE BACK OF THE VHS/DVD
Fall under the SPELL OF THE UNOWN!
Get set for an action-packed adventure unlike anything you've seen
before! A crystal catastrophe is unleashed upon Greenfield - and
Ash, Pikachu and friends must figure out how to undo the damage
to the once-beautiful town. But the unthinkable happens when
Ash's Mum is kidnapped by the powerful Entei, a Pokémon thought
to have existed only in legend. Now Ash must go to rescue
her. Uncertain of what he'll uncover, he unlocks the real
power behind the unbelievable turn of events: a young girl whose
dream world is being turned into a nightmarish reality by the most
unstoppable Pokémon ever - the Unown!
Includes mini-movie: Pikachu & Pichu
It's double trouble in the big city! Pikachu is lost,
and the Pichu Bros. must help their new pal get back before Ash
notices his Pokémon missing. It's a race against the
clock that has the duo dragging Pikachu into one disaster after
another! Dozens of Pokémon make their animated debut
in this hilarious adventure.
