I’ve still got the rest of my TLJ: Stoic Edition and TROS novelisation edits to finish first, but I wanted to make a post for this because it keeps bouncing around in my brain and I want other people’s ideas.

Based on these posts in the Worst Edit Ideas thread, Pokémon: The Last Jedi is an (obviously) not-too-serious edit of TLJ, replacing the John Williams soundtrack with appropriate music from the Pokémon games, replacing all of the fight scenes with Pokémon battles, and adding a few Pokémon into the regular TLJ footage. I can’t stop thinking about it.

This is the kind of edit that I figure is probably more fun to let everyone have a say in, rather than just me running the show. Right now, I wanna figure out:

Which Pokémon do different characters have? I’d like to give each of the main cast a “walking Pokémon” that follows them around, which I’ll add to the actual TLJ footage.
Which music tracks from Pokémon fit each scene?

Maybe Rose has an Aipom riding on her shoulder all the time. Maybe BB-8 is replaced with an Electrode that rolls around, and his beeps and whistles are replaced with “ELECTRODE!” from the cartoon. Maybe BB-9E is a Gastly. I have no idea what Pokémon Rey would have - Trapinch?

I know Luke at the start has got to have the “…” text at the bottom of the screen, and have Red’s team from the top of Mount Silver. And when Rey smashes the Ahch-To fish nun’s wheelbarrow it initiates a battle where the fish nun has six Magikarp.

Right now the only boring technical thing worth thinking about is how I’ll remove the music from TLJ; the only 5.1 channel version I have is Hal’s edit, and I’d prefer to use the theatrical cut for this.
