New Pokemon movie "Pokemon I Choose You"

These last years, every December there is an announcement about a new Pokemon movie that will make its premiere in Japan on July. This happened again. On children's program Oha Suta (=Goodmorning Star) on Thursday December 15 on TV Tokyo channel the 20th Pokemon movie's title was revealed. It is called Gekijoban Pocket Monster: Kimi Ni Kimeta (=Pokemon The Movie: I Choose You) and will make its premiere on Saturday July 15, 2017. After that, a small trailer was shown followed by a poster.

In the trailer we can see a variety of different places, including Pallet Town and protagonist Satoshi's home, known to most of us as Ash Ketchum, who takes a pokeball, puts on his hat and leaves to begin a new adventure. After that we can listen to the begining of Pokemon's first japanese opening. Of course, a Pokemon movie trailer couldn't end without our beloved Pikachu, saying "what" in his language, the pikalanguage.

Translation:

Narrator: A world you haven't seen yet. Friends you haven't met yet. Your journey begins now. Pokemon The Movie: I Choose You. 

Text: Your adventure. Are you ready? 

On the poster, we can see Ash with his clothes from the first generation with Pikachu looking at the legendary Pokemon Ho-oh.  For the record, Ho-oh is the legendary Pokemon that they met at the end of anime Pokemon's first episode, right after the Spearow's attack. Even the movie's title is the same as the first episode's.
