M12
(Japanese: 超克の時空へ To the Conquering of Space-Time) is the third Diamond & Pearl series movie and the twelfth Pokémon Pokémon movie overall. It is the last movie in the trilogy that started with The Rise of Darkrai and continued with Giratina and the Sky Warrior.
The movie was confirmed in Japanese cinemas in July 2008 at the end of the credits of its predecessor, Giratina and the Sky Warrior, with a teaser that showed Giratina, Dialga and Palkia ready to battle over ruins that resemble Spear Pillar. The same teaser was featured in the credits of the one-hour special of DP096 and DP097. The teaser can be seen on the Japanese website of the movie.
The producers went to Greece in August 2008 to use the country as a basis for the movie's fictitious setting.
A new trailer aired on December 4, 2008, which included a mysterious Pokémon hidden behind a question mark graphic. A week later, on December 11, 2008, a leaked photo from the December 15 (January) issue of CoroCoro revealed the Pokémon was a Pichu with a spiked ear. This leak also revealed the movie's title.
