It was released in movie theaters in Japan on July 18, 1998. The English version, produced by 4Kids Entertainment and distributed by Warner Bros. (on behalf of Kids' WB) in association with Nintendo Co. Ltd., was later released in the United States on November 12, 1999.

Pokémon: The First Movie has two parts: the feature presentation and a 20-minute short. In the United States, this film was rated G by the MPAA.

A 64-page art book has also been released. A remake of this movie was announced to be released on July 12, 2019.

The movie earned less at the box office than its predecessor, Pokémon: The First Movie, despite increased promotion and better critical reception, which made up for this minor loss.

In the United States, this film was rated G by the MPAA. Pokémon The Movie 3 - The Spell of the Unown (劇場版ポケットモンスター 結晶塔の帝王 ENTEI Gekijōban Poketto Monsutā Kesshōtō no Teiō ENTEI literally Pocket Monsters the Movie: Emperor of the Crystal Tower ENTEI; officially POCKET MONSTERS Lord of the "UNKNOWN" Tower in Japan) is the third feature-length Pokémon movie. The original Japanese version was released in theaters on July 8, 2000, and the English adaptation, entitled Pokémon 3: Spell of the Unown was released on April 6, 2001. This adaptation was produced by 4Kids Entertainment and the last one distributed by Kids' WB and Nintendo. Kids' WB is just a TV programming block, not a movie studio.

Like its predecessors, it is preceded by a 20-minute short film titled Pikachu & Pichu, which marks the debut of the mischievous Pichu Bros., who help Pikachu reunite with his trainer after being separated (without Ash even knowing, due to him preparing a party to celebrate the day Pikachu and he first met).

It was also the last Pokémon movie released theatrically in the UK, in Sweden and in Latin America.

According to IMDB, the movie was released before the airdate of "The Totodile Duel" episode on Kids' WB (5 May 2001). This created continuity errors for the audience, such as Ash suddenly having a Totodile and a Shiny Noctowl and Misty having a Poliwhirl instead of a Poliwag. Pokémon 4Ever (劇場版ポケットモンスター セレビィ 時を越えた遭遇, Gekijouban Poketto Monsutaa Serebyi Toki o Koeta Deai, lit.

It was the first one to be distributed by Miramax Films and fourth Pokémon film to be released in wide theaters outside of Japan in 2002. The original Japanese version was released in theaters on July 7, 2001, and the English adaptation saw limited theatrical release on October 11, 2002.

Although Cartoon Network has numerously aired the film, it aired on Toon Disney (now known as Disney XD) on May 21, 2007 (due to the fact that Miramax, which was still owned by Disney at the time, released the film), being the third Pokémon film to air on Toon Disney Pokémon Heroes (劇場版ポケットモンスター 水の都の護神 ラティアスとラティオス, Gekijōban Poketto Monsutā Mizu no Miyako no Mamorigami Ratiasu to Ratiosu, lit. "Pocket Monsters the Movie: Latias and Latios, the Guardian Gods of the Water Capital") is the fifth movie in the Pokémon series, complimenting the subtitle Pokémon: Master Quest in the dub.

It was distributed by Miramax Films, not Warner Bros. Pictures.

Heroes is the shortest Pokémon film, and just under 20 minutes for Camp Pikachu. In America, it is also the lowest-grossing of all the Pokémon films, and the only one not to make one million dollars at the American box office. This is likely because it was only released in 196 theatres (compared with 3,043 theatres for the first movie, and 2600+ theatres for the second and third movie) and was as much of a disastrous flop as Super Mario Bros. As a result, the films in the Ruby and Sapphire series and beyond were direct-to-D.V.D. in the U.S. and Europe.

Although Cartoon Network had numerously aired the film, it also aired on Toon Disney (now known as Disney XD) on November 27, 2007, being the fourth Pokémon film to air on Toon Disney Pokémon: Advanced, also known as Pocket Monsters: Advanced Generation (ポケットモンスター アドバンスジェネレーション Poketto Monsutaa Adobansu Jenereeshon) in Japan and Pocket Monsters AG (포켓몬스터 AG Poketmonseuteo AG) in South Korea, respectively, is the sixth subtitle of the Pokémon anime, and the first subtitle of the Ruby and Sapphire series. It features 40 episodes of Ash Ketchum and his friends May, Max and Brock's adventure through Hoenn from Littleroot Town to Mauville City. The subtitle refers to the Hoenn episodes that were dubbed as part of Season 6, which began with the first 12 episodes (starting from "Address Unown!") of "Pokémon: Master Quest". Pokémon: Advanced Challenge, also known as Pocket Monsters: Advanced Generation (ポケットモンスター アドバンスジェネレーション Poketto Monsutaa Adobansu Jenereeshon) in Japan and Pocket Monsters AG (포켓몬스터 AG Poketmonseuteo AG) in South Korea, respectively, is the seventh season of the Pokémon anime, and the second season of the Ruby and Sapphire series.

However, the Australian DVD has a widescreen presentation while the American release does not. This is also the last film to have been dubbed in English by 4Kids Entertainment, with the original cast.

The background for Pokémon: Lucario and the Mystery of Mew was based on visits by Yuyama to Bavaria, Germany. Neuschwanstein Castle and Linderhof Palace were used as the basis of the film's setting.

Hajimari no Uta", the ending theme for the Japanese version of the movie, is performed by Puffy AmiYumi. The ending theme for the English dub was "We Will Meet Again" performed by John Siegler and Eric Stuart.

Pokémon: Lucario and the Mystery of Mew was one of the four nominees for the American Anime Awards' "Best Anime Feature" award, but it lost to Final Fantasy VII Advent Children.

The preview was shown during Cartoon Network's Fried Dynamite, and indicated the possibility that The Rise of Darkrai may be the first Pokémon film to have a cinematic release since Pokémon Heroes. This was later proven false when Pokémon.com announced a direct-to-DVD release following the premiere on Cartoon Network. This is the first English dub done by DuArt Film and Video instead of TAJ Studios. This is also the final Pokémon movie to be distributed by Viz Media in the United States; the next two films are/will be distributed by Universal Pictures.

This is the first time an English song was sung in a Japanese dubbed Pokémon film.[citation needed]. The song was replaced by "I'll Always Remember You" by Kristen Price (who would also sing the theme for the next season) most likely due to the rights to the song are too expensive, and another song called "Living in the Shadow" followed afterwards.

This movie was released on British Region 2 DVD, which was surprising as it was the first since Jirachi: Wish Maker to have been.
