Pokestar Studios, located in Virbank City, is a unique and engaging side activity where you can star in your own Pokémon movies. This feature allows you to battle using rental Pokémon and follow a script, making choices that affect the movie's outcome and critical reception. Successful movies earn you money and unlock new movie scenarios and props.

To participate, simply talk to the receptionist inside Pokestar Studios. You'll be given a script and a set of rental Pokémon. During filming, you'll make choices in battle, such as which move to use or whether to switch Pokémon, to match the script's narrative. Achieving a 'hit' or 'smash hit' rating requires understanding the script's goals and making strategic decisions. There are many different movie series, each with multiple endings and challenges. Completing all movies with a 'smash hit' rating is a significant undertaking and a rewarding experience.
