‘Zoroark: Master of Illusions’ to Air on Cartoon Network in February

Pokemon.com has just announced that Zoroark: Master of Illusions, the thirteenth Pokemon movie, will air on Cartoon Network sometime in February. The website has also posted an English trailer for the movie along with a brief plot synopsis, the latter of which you can read below. We first learned of the Zoroark movie’s English release back in October when its poster appeared on eBay.

The Fury of Zoroark Has Been Unleashed!

The Pokémon Baccer World Cup.

It is the most anticipated event of the year, and as hundreds flock to Crown City to watch the exciting competition unfold, Ash, Pikachu, and his friends encounter a mysterious new Pokémon they have never seen before.

But when the three Legendary Pokémon Raikou, Entei, and Suicune suddenly arrive and begin rampaging through the streets, it’s up to Ash and his companions, along with their new Pokémon friend Zorua, to uncover the secret behind the immense and powerful forces at work.

What strange and dangerous powers are afoot in Crown City? Why did Celebi suddenly return after vanishing for twenty years? And why is the mighty Zoroark unleashing its fury upon the town? The quest for these answers leads down an uncertain path filled with peril—can Ash and his companions find enough courage, strength, and friendship to unearth the mystery in time to save Crown City?

Release Date: February 2011
