Okay, Pokémon doesn't really have story beats or really an overarching plot, how the heck do you condense it down to its "important bits?" There's not big bad beaten at the end of the Indigo league, our hero loses before the Semi-Finals, which doesn't seem like something you want to end a movie on.

Make Gary a relevant figure. Have Ash lose to him instead of Ash 2, I mean New Ash, I mean...Ritchie.
I get the point of why Ash lost to Ritchie (It was to show that he's kind of a bad trainer), but it made Gary kind of irrelevant to even appear during the league.

Honestly, there are 8 "Important bits" in the anime, those being the gyms (Well...7, since the final gym was just another Team Rocket fight). I just don't know how they'll show them off.
If anything, I desperately pray they don't pull an Origins and go "Oh yeah, he beat them, too" and move on.
