The Pokémon version of the video premiered during primetime on The WB on October 24, 1999 during an episode of the show ''7th Heaven'', and was later included as a bonus feature on the first movie's initial DVD release. Like some of the other promo material used to promote the movie's US release, one of the clips used (the scene of Ash and the non-clone Pokémon walking out of the smoke) was from the original Japanese theatrical release, rather than the remastered ''Kanzenban'' version.
