Overview
In the hillside town of Eindoak, the power of an ancient kingdom still lingers in the Sword of the Vale, and a small Mythical Pokémon named Victini is tied to the town in a way no one fully understands. When Ash, Iris and Cilan arrive during a harvest festival, they befriend Victini — a cheerful Pokémon said to bring victory to anyone it shares its power with.
Their visit turns serious when Damon, a descendant of the People of the Vale, sets out to restore his lost kingdom by drawing on Victini’s strength and awakening the Legendary Pokémon Reshiram. Ash must decide how far he will go to protect a friend who cannot simply leave, in a story about loyalty, freedom and the price of chasing power.

Frequently asked questions
Who is Victini? Victini is a small Mythical Pokémon that is said to bring victory to the Trainer it befriends, and in this film it lives in Eindoak Town, where it shares food and games with Ash and his friends.
What is the Sword of the Vale? It is the ancient structure at the heart of Eindoak Town, left behind by the People of the Vale, whose kingdom once drew its power from the land around it.
Why can Victini not leave Eindoak Town? Victini is bound to the town by an ancient barrier, so it cannot travel beyond its borders even though it longs to see the world outside.
Is this the same film as White — Victini and Zekrom? No. The two films share the same setting and opening, but this Black version centres on the Legendary Pokémon Reshiram, while the White version centres on Zekrom.
