Posted by Warner Bros. just dropped a trailer today that is sure to send fans of the Pokemon franchise into a whirlwind of emotions. That trailer is Detective Pikachu. I did not know how I was going to feel about this movie when they first announced it, but this trailer just squashed any doubts I had. This movie looks absolutely amazing! See for yourself below.
OFFICIAL SYNOPSIS
The world of Pokémon comes to life!
The first-ever live-action Pokémon movie, “POKÉMON Detective Pikachu” stars Ryan Reynolds as the titular character in the first-ever live-action movie based on the iconic face of the global Pokémon brand—one of the world’s most popular, multi-generation entertainment properties and most successful media franchises of all time.
Fans everywhere can now experience Pikachu on the big screen as never before, as a talking detective Pikachu, a Pokémon like no other. The film also showcases a wide array of beloved Pokémon characters, each with its own unique abilities and personality.
The story begins when ace private eye Harry Goodman goes mysteriously missing, prompting his 21-year-old son Tim to find out what happened. Aiding in the investigation is Harry’s former Pokémon partner, Detective Pikachu: a hilariously wise-cracking, adorable super-sleuth who is a puzzlement even to himself. Finding that they are uniquely equipped to communicate with one another, Tim and Pikachu join forces on a thrilling adventure to unravel the tangled mystery. Chasing clues together through the neon-lit streets of Ryme City—a sprawling, modern metropolis where humans and Pokémon live side by side in a hyper-realistic live-action world—they encounter a diverse cast of Pokémon characters and uncover a shocking plot that could destroy this peaceful co-existence and threaten the whole Pokémon universe.
“POKÉMON Detective Pikachu” is set for release on Friday, May 10, 2019.
WHAT ARE THE FANS SAYING
Detective Pikachu looks like it will be very interesting to say the least. I mean the pokemon look either fuzzy or scaly and then theres Mr. Mime that is straight up nightmare fuel. And I find it funny that the movie shows more Pokemon then Lets go is doing at all.
