In the first place, the sceneries and the bso are the same as the game. Unfortunately, you can’t enjoy them very much because 80% of the story is told in less than five minutes.
The animations are well done, and the way the battles are developed are more realistic than the main anime. However, the few fights that this special shows us are very short, and I couldn’t get enough of it, because the battles were my favorite parts.
But hey, we can’t complain about the brevity of this anime, because the objective of it is not to do a parallel show of the existent but to go fast to the final in which they can explain to us the Mega Evolution of Pokemon XY.
So, finally, watching this special has been a great injection of nostalgia. Therefore, if your situation with Pokemon has been the same as mine, I recommend this one to you. You will feel huge excitement with the first images, and who knows, maybe your interest in Pokemon will be born again. However, it's also frustrating because an anime that is based on a game in which I spent more than 1K hours and has so much potential, it's summarized in only 4 episodes. Despite the bad things, it is worth watching it.
