Production Background
Gekijouban Pocket Monsters: Kimi ni Kimeta! Remix is a finished manga compilation of new stories connected to the Pocket Monsters: Kimi ni Kimeta! movie. Its four chapters cover Satoshi and Pikachu's meeting, Marshadow, Ho-Oh, and Pikachu and Satoshi's hat.
The manga was published in one volume in 2017. Three chapters appeared in CoroCoro Comic issues dated May, July, and August 2017, while the fourth was newly written for the collection. The record lists a July 15, 2017 release date.
Franchise Context
Gekijouban Pocket Monsters: Kimi ni Kimeta! Remix is a finished manga companion to the Pocket Monsters: Kimi ni Kimeta! film, rather than the beginning of a new series or a separate franchise. Published as one volume with four chapters in 2017, it revisits the film’s setting through newly presented stories connected to Satoshi and Pikachu, Marshadow, and Ho-Oh. Its placement is therefore best understood as a manga expansion of a movie entry within the broader Pokémon franchise.
The volume is not identified as a remake, sequel, or spin-off with an independent continuity. Instead, its chapter-based format gathers several related pieces, including material focused on the central human and Pokémon partnership and additional legend-oriented perspectives associated with the film. Readers looking for the movie’s surrounding manga material should treat Remix as a compact, self-contained companion release, while recognizing that it does not replace the film or represent the complete Pokémon franchise. The record lists the work as finished, with four chapters and one volume.
