Movie Special: I'm Not Pikachu! (Japanese: 映画公開記念'98 ピカチュウじゃないってば! Movie Premiere Special '98: I'm not Pikachu!) is written by Junko Wada and illustrated by Toshinao Aoki. It is a special tie-in to the first movie and part of the Pokémon Tales series. This book has 18 pages in total.
Plot
A boy goes to see an unidentified movie starring Pikachu, Mew, and Mewtwo (possibly Pokémon: The First Movie), but for some strange reason when he leaves the cinema, he finds that he had transformed into a Pikachu (still wearing his red baseball cap) and is chased by the people coming out of the theater. He tries to escape the fans, and among doing so, he finds a girl who similarly transformed into Mew, and another boy into Mewtwo. The three decide to head back to the boy's house, where his mother lets them in and comments on how her son would have loved to meet Pikachu. After that they head back to the movie theater in an attempt to find a way to transform back, only to see that everyone who had watched the Pokémon movie has transformed into a Pikachu, Mew, or Mewtwo. The book ends with a mirror intended to reflect the reader, saying that if they'd transformed into a Pokémon, they could turn back to normal with a good nights sleep- until the next time they watch a Pokémon movie, at least.
Blurb
Based on the forthcoming Pokémon movie, this special edition of Pokémon Tales stars the reader! Changing from human to Pokémon - fuzzy, electric, and two feet tall - is simple enough, but how about changing back? The rare Pokémon Mew and Mewtwo join in the fun.
After seeing the Pokémon Movie, a young boy is amazed to discover he has turned into the star!
