From May 2nd to May 8th, the theater will showcase a special selection of three beloved short films from the Pokemon franchise, emphasizing the nostalgic ties between the classic animated stories and the big screen experience.

Jinbocho Theater has long been cherished for its dedication to screening classic Japanese films. Originally opened in 2007 with the premiere of 'Pokémon: Dialga vs. Palkia vs. Darkrai', it reflects the theater's commitment to nostalgic cinema. Now, given this unexpected yet fitting connection, they have curated an event that brings together fans old and new to enjoy the magic of Pokemon this year.
