The Power Of One: The Pokémon 2000 Movie Special was a television special that aired on The WB network in the United States on July 16, 2000. The TV special was created to promote the theatrical English dub release of the second Pokémon movie, Pokémon the Movie 2000: The Power of One.

The special featured live performances of songs from the movie's soundtrack and included segments that went behind-the-scenes on how the soundtrack's music was produced, with interviews of artists whose music was featured. Guest appearances included Kobe Bryant, Christina Aguilera, 'N Sync, and David Gallagher, all of whom told inspirational stories centered around the theme of "the power of one".
