40 years ago, a Celebi was being attacked by a Pokemon Hunter. Luckily, a young boy named Sammy saved Celebi. Using its Time Traveling power, Celebi transported himself and Sammy 40 years into the future. There, Ash, Misty, and Brock assist Sammy to the healing lake in the forest so they can heal the wounded Celebi. Unfortunately an evil Team Rocket member, Viscious a.k.a. "The Iron Masked Marauder", tries to capture Celebi using his technology. As Ash and Co. try to get away from Viscious, they also run into Jessie, James, and Meowth, who also want to capture Celebi. Soon it becomes a race against time to get Celebi and Sammy back to the forest before Celebi is caught and is used to destroy the forest and themselves.

This Pokemon movie is structured no differently from other movies based on an ongoing TV anime as Ash and pals come across a Celebi and a young boy who time travel and are being attacked by a Pokemon hunter desiring the rare Pokemon for his own ends. The motivations of the hunter are as typical as you'd expect from his character type and his existence makes up the main conflict of the film, which isn't really too compelling. The film does try to make a bond out of Ash and the boy, though it doesn't come across feeling compelling compared to the bond he develops with Latios and Latias in Pocket Monsters: Mizu no Miyako no Mamori Gami - Latias to Latios and who the boy's revealed to be felt rather hollow. Like prior films, the animation quality is better compared to the TV series. But even with this, Pokemon 4Ever still stands as one of the more underwhelming films in the Pokemon franchise.
