@legendarypokeman: This is the real reason why Ash got Pikachu as his starter Pokemon. Having a choice is nothing but an illusion… #pokemon #legendarypokeman #pokemongames #videogames
Funny how celebi was never considered part of the pokedex of the original 151 pokemon

assuming he slept in in the first place, otherwise waking up on time would in fact have given him the choice

I don’t want to admit it but I’m today years old when I realized that Sammy is professor Oak 😅

And I believe that’s what we call a bootstrap paradox!

Isn’t there also a scene with Oak holding the same sketchbook?

not to mention AFTER the phone call ash questions how professor oak knew sammy's nickname. then it goes to oak's lab where someone asks about a drawing professor oak has and oak literally says "oh thats my old sketchbook" and it shows the drawing.... the one sammy made of celebi and pikachu snoozing together. movie literally spells it out at the very end.

Prof Oak can't even remember the name of his own grandson...

Tylor Priest :
I have a theory that ash wasn't technically late. oak purposely told him the wrong time so he would think he was late. Ash was clumsy and lazy so it's possible he just forgot what time oak told him and oak just gaslighted him into thinking he was late.

not to mention after the call ends it shows Oak with the faded sketch and saying he remembers it like it was yesterday

honestly, he did him a favour because that Pikachu was built different 😂 ,a first stage going toe to toe with legendaries is something else

also, anyone who didnt notice that it showed the Pikachu/Celibi drawing in Oak's lab after that phone call really missed the hint

Well I mean if he didn’t it would cause a paradox, and the movie wouldn’t happen

How many times do we need to remind people that the movies aren't canon to the series. That was a what if scenario.
