On the distribution artwork it seems that there is a Phanpy and Heracross, which were once Ash's Pokémon and it has become increasingly likely they will be Ash's other Pokémon. There is also a possibility they will be wild Pokémon or Pokémon owned by other Trainers, which things like that have been seen on previous distribution artworks and it may be the case for Staryu on the poster, who isn't seen to be owned by anyone on the main cast.

It would be lovely if those really are his.
One of my major complaints about M20 was that it was basically just Pikachu and Charizard, yes Butterfree was there.... but he left cause apparently they couldn't let it be an entirely AU where Butterfree stayed. It'd be boring if it was just Pikachu and Charizard.... again.

Charizard didn't appear on that poster so it's unlikely it will appear anywhere in the movie. It will be more preferable if Charizard didn't appear in the movie at all so that we can have a break from that thing.

And in other news, the official website has had a few more updates:

On Thursday, a personality test section was added to the site where you can answer a couple easy question to learn what Pokémon suits you the best. All the questions are translated here, so follow the link in the article and try the test out

On Friday, the usual weekly list of upcoming magazines was added. They're starting to get some length to them now.

And finally, as mentioned in the tweets from the Hobby Fair, the drawing contest mosaic art can now be viewed on the official movie website. See if you can find entries from your favorite fan artists.

The mosaic is pretty cool. I'm assuming they made copies of some of the originals onto colored paper, and if they didn't, it's impressive they got that many yellow, brown, red, and black pieces of art.

Yeah I like the mosaic too seeing that there is Eevee wearing Lisa's glasses although that isn't really a new thing. It's quite amazing it took 10,000 people to make this mosaic.

Can we please get the older, old forum back?

It's quite easy to spot that they used a color enhancing overlay for the zoomed out version.

When you zoom in just left to the symbol on Ash's hat there's a drawing of just a Pikachu and a Ditto. When you zoom out you can see the black "edge-line" we are accustomed separating the Pikachu and Ditto - which isn't in the drawing at all. And a bit further down you can see a drawing with Pikachu and a Poipole with a completely white background. But when you zoom out it suddenly has a blue hue of the background. So the whites look whiter (and sometimes even a different color altogether) and the blues look bluer and the reds look redder and the browns look browner.
