Summary

LOGLINE: As a young girl Pokémon Trainer finds out what it means to become the very best, her father tries to connect with her through her newfound ambition.As the generation of millenials whose childhood was defined by the Pokémon franchise is reaching the age to have children of that very same age, this tale brings these generations of people and Pokémon together with heartfelt nostalgia and the inherent calls of childhood that Pokémon evokes.While writing this, I tried to accomplish several things:1. Work every single line of the TV version of the Pokémon theme song, also known as 'Gotta Catch 'em All', into the dialogue.2. Explore how injecting mystical creatures that Pokémon are would interact with real world power dynamics like wealth, fame, race,...3. Setup multiple layers of subtext (read: subtext of subtext of subtext,...).4. Tie older generations of Pokémon to older generations of characters, and the same for younger generations.5. Combine slice of life comedy with drama.6. Design the entire script as a funeral.
