>>56038119Only Lucario had a long production cycle circa 2002 according to Sonoda's blog.
>>56043607Only partially. Some scenes featuring cgi and complex rotating shots use digital for M08 and 09 but alot of scenes still use cels. The key tell-tale sign is simply looking at the backgrounds.
>>56037369OLM took the transition pretty harshly, the Japanese DVDs and airings for the AG eps up to AG104 add a grain filter to make look like they were made on cels.
M05-09 were done at Tatsunoko iirc, but nobody has ever publicly said why these films as well as Gotta Dance and the night-time scenes of the gen 3 shorts still used cels. Interestingly, I've never seen cels of those stuff appear in auctions and the like.
