Audience Consensus

The short film is appreciated for its unique artistic collaboration and accessibility with official English subtitles. However, some viewers may find the localization choices distracting, and the inability to remove the baked-in subtitles could be a minor inconvenience. Overall, it seems to be a well-received short, primarily due to its novelty and accessibility.

Strengths

  • Officially released with English subtitles for worldwide streaming.
  • Unique collaboration between Pokémon and Daniel Arsham.

Weaknesses

  • Localization choices might bother some viewers (English names instead of Japanese).
  • Subtitles are baked into the video, which cannot be turned off.
