Mononoke is so much more superior, in story, animation, and overall imagination, than Pokemon . Look, I know this is supposed to be targeted to a juvenile audience. But let's not forget that parents and guardians have to take their kids to see this mess, usually more than once. They either sit there with their kids, or they do the Great Evil and leave the kids unattended in the theatre while they watch a better movie. Even by the lowest standards possible, this is pure dreck, thrown together as a blatant scam to rip money from parents' pockets.
Commercialism is competitive, and forces the quality to get better and better.
This is just a mugging in a dark alley. Not by a long shot. Talk to your kids. Your kids want to see this miserable piece of human waste, I guess you have to take them. But do me a favor when you get home.
