The film's central conflict revolves around the displacement of a species due to habitat loss, with the narrative strongly advocating for environmental protection, empathy for the displaced, and peaceful coexistence, aligning with left-leaning values.
The movie features a diverse cast of established anime characters, consistent with the Pokémon franchise, without explicit race or gender swaps of traditionally white roles. Its narrative focuses on themes of coexistence and environmentalism, rather than engaging with or critiquing traditional identities or explicit DEI themes.
Mewtwo, a character previously established with a masculine-coded voice and persona in earlier installments (e.g., Pokémon: The First Movie), is portrayed with a distinctly feminine voice and referred to with female pronouns in this film.
Pokémon the Movie: Genesect and the Legend Awakened does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative centers on Pokémon battles and the conflict between Genesect and Mewtwo, without incorporating elements related to queer identity or experiences.
The film's combat primarily involves Pokémon. No human female characters engage in direct physical combat. While Mewtwo, depicted with a female voice and form, participates in battles against the Genesect, its victories are achieved solely through its psychic superpowers, which fall outside the scope of physical combat as defined.
This animated film is an installment in an existing animated franchise. Established characters maintain their consistent visual designs, and no characters originally depicted as one race are portrayed as a different race within this movie.
