I've only seen the first movie, and that was ages ago and I barely remember any of it.
I don't have any desire to see any of the others, although the Entei and Keldeo ones sound interesting.

You know, it's a shame that Smogon's writeups aren't as funny anymore.
Back in Gen IV we had hilarious entries for Luvdisc and Unown. But my favorites were all of Arceus's assorted forms, like this.

Those Arceus overviews. They are things of beauty.
Heart of Stone
The Arceus overviews are the best, but I do also like this sentence from Fighting Arceus's actual set details.
"Fighting Arceus is one of the only Arceus formes capable of using a specially-oriented set without being completely walled by the fat blob known as Blissey."
Poison Arceus has the best overview by the way.

Fat blob is a pretty common nickname for Blissey and Chansey.

Man, I was scared that your Cradily would get taunted or run out of PP for Ancient Power

The thing I love about Mega-Gyarados is being able to turn off the Flying weaknesses in a pinch.
Nice.

@Smogon writeups: Inorite?
Eating a Vanilluxe will give you frostbite.
Is there a viable set for Giratina that uses Aura Sphere?

In past Gens yeah, but not in ORAS. It doesn't hit anything.

Not Dialga or Arceus?

What a shame. 90% of things that get Focus Blast with they had Aura Sphere.

Finally got around to cleaning up the Pokemon Ranger characters subpage.
Was tough undoing the damage some guy did by removing the linebreaks...

Giratina is best as the wall that blocks Extreme Speed sweepers (SD-Arceus) and Speed Boost Blazikens (immune to Fight, resistant to Fire).

Giratina probably doesn't carry Aura Sphere anymore because Steel doesn't resist Ghost anymore.

You know what's great? Letting your enemy pull off a couple Dragon Dances on their Salamence, then sending out Ditto with Quick Claw.

Darkrai resists Ghost still and is the common enemy for Giratina.

Why not give Ditto choice scarf? It'll probably die quick anyway, and that way you know that you'll go first.
Quick claw just seems too unreliable.

Ditto needs a Choice Scarf (Quickpowder doesn't work when Transformed), because otherwise you're banking on winning the Speed tie.

Also, never set down a Sticky Web if your opponent is running Bisharp.
-PTSD intensifies-
also with quick claw, instead of being a 50%/50% chance, or 100%/0% with only one move, it's a 70%/30%.

Quick Claw's chance to activate is actually 23.4375%. Regardless still not a reliable item.
Also don't set up Webs when they have a Serperior.

I guess I'll say more about my list earlier.
I thought the Entei, Lucario, and Zoroark movies were the best 3. They all made good use of their characters, Pokemon, and villains and didn't waste time.
Mewtwo, Lugia, Deoxys, and Shaymin/Giratina were all the other good movies. Mewtwo in particular had a pretty well written plot for a Pokemon movie, though it was changed the most in the English dub.
I thought the Darkrai movie was just average in every way. I don't even really remember it that well. The Arceus movie was also pretty forgettable, and I thought the villain and handling of Arceus were pretty lame. Manaphy was better then the previous movies in its style, but still had a lot of wasted filler and a mediocre villain.
The Celebi, Lati@s, and Jirachi movies all have the same problem of wasting a lot of time on the characters playing with the legendaries, and the human villains being generic and forgettable. The Victini movie I just barely remember at all.
The Genesect movie was just bad. And the Keldeo movie was terrible in every way, easily the worst movie.
