The recent YouTube trailer for the gritty movie Pokemon Apokelypse left fans in joy...and then in disappointment shortly thereafter when it was discovered to be a (unusual) homage to Nintendo’s beloved franchise.

Sometimes things get made in a certain medium because that's the best medium for them.
