Pok\u00e9mon<\/em> has been a global phenomenon for almost 30 years now, spawning more than 70 games, a TV animation series with 27 seasons, 24 feature length movies, and an immeasurable amount of merchandise around the globe. <\/p>

Whether you grew up with the first generation of Pok\u00e9mon<\/em>, memorized all 151 Pok\u00e9mon and begged your parents to take you to the cinema to see Pok\u00e9mon: The First Movie<\/em>, or you joined the hype train later and got your introduction to the world of Pok\u00e9mon movies with I Choose You!, Zoroark – Master of Illusions<\/em>, or even Detective Pikachu<\/em>, there\u2019s a movie out there for everyone. <\/p>

It\u2019s safe to say that you\u2019ll need to set aside a few hours of time to watch every Pok\u00e9mon <\/em>movie out there. They\u2019re available in their native Japanese, as well as with English dubs, so they\u2019re easily accessible even if you find subtitles off-putting. Movies have often been released to coincide with the introduction of new legendary Pok\u00e9mon. <\/p>

Here are all of the Pok\u00e9mon <\/em>movies in order of release, along with their Japanese name (which more often than not offers more insight into the content of the movie itself), and the run time for each. Don\u2019t worry, I\u2019m not expecting you to whip out a calculator to work out how long a Pok\u00e9mon movie marathon would take, I\u2019ll add it all together for you when we\u2019re done. <\/p>

Now, to watch all of these movies in an epic Pok\u00e9mon <\/em>marathon, you\u2019d need to set aside a total of 2,224 minutes. In simpler terms, you\u2019ll need a span of 37 hours in which you were planning on doing nothing else, and you\u2019ll be very tired by the end of your viewing experience.\u00a0<\/p>

Breaking it down into more manageable chunks may be more palatable for most, but if you\u2019ve got the stones than a marathon might be worth it if you weren\u2019t going to be doing anything anyway and happen to be a Pok\u00e9mon <\/em>super fan.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

They\u2019re available in their native Japanese, as well as with English dubs, so they\u2019re easily accessible even if you find subtitles off-putting. Movies have often been released to coincide with the introduction of new legendary Pok\u00e9mon.\u00a0 Here are all of the Pok\u00e9mon movies in order of release, along with their Japanese name (which more often than not offers more insight into the content of the movie itself), and the run time for each. Don\u2019t worry, I\u2019m not expecting you to whip out a calculator to work out how long a Pok\u00e9mon movie marathon would take, I\u2019ll add it all together for you when we\u2019re done.

In simpler terms, you\u2019ll need a span of 37 hours in which you were planning on doing nothing else, and you\u2019ll be very tired by the end of your viewing experience.\u00a0 Breaking it down into more manageable chunks may be more palatable for most, but if you\u2019ve got the stones than a marathon might be worth it if you weren\u2019t going to be doing anything anyway and happen to be a Pok\u00e9mon super fan.","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/secrets-jungle.jpg?fit=1200%2C675","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/990725"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/906"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=990725"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/990725\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":990734,"href":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/990725\/revisions\/990734"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/990733"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=990725"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=990725"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=990725"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=990725"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=990725"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=990725"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=990725"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
