Gotta Catch 'Em All - Rumble Trailer (Unofficial)

*Originally posted to the AAVF Studios Youtube Channel on Mar 3, 2024*

With the start of the year 2024, the legendary mouse from the house of Disney, Mickey Mouse became public domain (albeit in the form of Steam Boat Willie). With this relinquished IP came a slurry of creative and defiling creative projects, all trying to put their own personal branding on it. Looking at this particular new wave of parodying material for inspiration on new content, I decided to make a horror movie caricature of a well-established IP (which had been done before to varying degrees of success), in concept only anyway. Here is my idea for a Pokémon horror movie, utilising a franchise-related Pokéball as a weapon! It was a tiring minute-and-a-half clip to make (via rounding up), but I view this part of my history very fondly as one of my finest creations. Enjoy!

P.S.

Yes, I know the animation's not perfect and some cracks in the paint are showing, but hey, I assure you this is one of the best things (over-exaggeration) unpaid hobbyist animation can accomplish. This is done entirely without funding or financial backing and by one free-spirited man - me. If anything, go make your own version of this video, I'm just simply a conduit for putting untapped ideas out into the world. Go nuts, get messy, and spread happiness throughout the internet.

P.P.S.

The Pokémon Company, if you see this video, please don't sue me.
