Worth knowing. Almost every film is self-contained, so the order rarely matters. Three exceptions are worth knowing. Black and White are the same film with different legendary Pokémon — pick one. I Choose You!, The Power of Us and Secrets of the Jungle are set in a separate continuity from the television series. And Mewtwo Strikes Back - Evolution is a computer-animated remake of the 1998 original rather than a new story. Detective Pikachu is live action and unconnected to any of them.
