The official Movie 13 Taiwanese website updated the other day to announce the release date of Movie 13 in Taiwan. The Ruler of Illusions Zoroark (神奇寶貝 幻影の霸者 索羅亞克) will begin screening in Taiwanese theaters on July 30th, 2010. This marks the fastest time that a Pocket Monsters movie has been released in Taiwan after the Japanese debut with less than three weeks difference. The 30 second trailer dubbed in Mandarin Chinese is available on the site. Taiwan is currently the only announced country outside of Japan that will show the latest Pocket Monsters movie in theaters.

With the announcement of the movie came the official Taiwanese names for Zoroark (索羅亞克) and Zorua (索羅亞).

Appears the rest of the world is going to get owned again with this movie. If this movie was marketed like it is in Taiwan and Japan, it would get a lot of people in the theaters in North America. Have download stations to distribute the legendary Pokemon right at the theaters. A DS sent to all the theaters to distribute the Pokemon wouldn't cost much.

I remember when Movie 1 and 2000 were in theaters here in Canada. The theater was busy. Promote it as like the first time to see new Pokemon from Black and White. PUSA has really dropped the ball on this as well as Arceus DVD distribution.

Indeed, they seem to treat the anime as if the fad is long dead. Apparently right holders for the movies (CN and Disney-XD ?) got no clue at all about game sales. Too bad Pokemon Inc. doesn't realize the harm done either.

Makes me think that Pokemon isn't popular in Hong Kong that much as far as I'm concerned(I don't know much). DP started to air in HK in June this year but they did screen the 10th movie on TVB(I'm not from HK, btw).

The Ruler of Illusions Zoroark will be in South Korea this month.
