I saw this movie this Wednesday, and it was actually better than I expected! The semi-realistic Pokémon designs weren't even close to as repulsive as I thought they would be. And no adult or dirty jokes either. That's a definite plus for me.
Also, all the little Pokélore references here and there show that the creators of this movie knew exactly what they were doing. It wasn't just a cashgrab. This is a genuine love letter to all Pokémon fans.
A special mention has to go to Pikachu saying "Sweet mother of Arceus". Replacing "God" with "Arceus" in a saying is no longer just a fan thing. It's something done in a piece of official Pokémon media.
