It was the magic mechs wasn't it?
"Magitech" the core thing of Kefka's army in FF6.

Also.

Hey You, Pikachu! 3 ft. Detectives is going to be a thing.

And isn't Keldeo already confirmed to be an assist or am I just thinking of his pokeball usage in Smash 4?

Edit:
I'm surprised no one mentioned Detective Pikachu being a bit of a perv, he's a skirt chaser lol
Meanwhile.

Upskirt grimer

Don't play with my heart like this!


Why is Christopher Robin acting as a detective with a talking Pikachu?
Well Pikachu is basically hardcore Winnie The Pooh in terms of color scheme and general design anyway, so. . .

Lizards becoming weaboos after being exposed to the internet?



*puts on hipster glasses*

I had the lizardboo idea BEFORE it was cool! :4megaman:

Bit too late for that train:
(If it doesn't skip, go to 0:44)

We never did figure out who that girl was too.


Edit: Changed the picture.

I wonder if they decided to just use
instead of that blue Pikachu mentioned during development of the game. Probably not knowing the Pokemon company's obsession with Pikachu variants that are Pikachu...

I was not expecting such a thorough and in-depth analysis on the whole Rosalina situation but man did you go for it. You have definitely put my foot in my mouth, didn't realize Rosalina really was that big of a deal overall. Thanks for informing me, that was a really nice read. Honestly I'd say that this is the kind of thing that oughta go on Source Gaming or whatnot as some history of Rosalina article or w/e cause it's really well done.
Thanks!

I was afraid of it coming off as a bit rude towards you so I hope I didn't give that impression, and apologies if I did.

FE7 manages to make me feel sad for Eliwood
FE7 continues to make me sad that Eliwood's useless son is in Smash
FE7 is a curse and a blessing at the same time

About tge Pikachu Detective gane
That is the most weird route they could have taken with Pokemon, yet I love what I see

I mean, if you're a cute small talking Pikachu, you better take advantage of that

I'm fine with the character design being plain. The settings of the world looks more or less to be an everyday life world but with Pokemon. Doesn't seem to be taking place in the same universe as the main Pokemon stuff, so he fits IMO.

Could they have given the human character a more generic design?


Also, Pikachu has teeth.
It's not like Pikachu is a bird or an insect. Having teeth is kind of expected, even if it's a little Uncanny Valley in this instance.

You ever look into a cat's mouth? It's not an exact match to a human mouth by any means, but the front teeth are still little flat teeth (ableit far tinier) and the back teeth are still at least vaguely like molars even if they're more mountain shaped than crater shaped.

Pikachu always struck me as being slightly feline somehow, despite being a mouse.

You know, I couldn't help but think "stranger danger" watching the first bit of that. :skull:

Also, narration. *ding*
I mean, the game has gotten nothing but praise from the japanese release iirc
Last time I've been excited for a Digimon game in the last like 8 years.

Edit
You can't spoil everything with just the trailer :O

INB4 Pikachu is looker but was turned into a pokemon by Bill's machine
There's an issue.
Pikachu actually seems competent.

The very stupidest? Mind explaining why you think that? His movie was crap BTW.

:094:
I mean.

Does it need to be explained?
His colors, his proportions...
He looks like a bad My Little Pony recolor IMO.
And I can't get over how his nostrils are red. Why are they red? Are they stuffed with pizza sauce or something?

I was actually about to post that, Pikachu has teeth in the anime too.

But it's strange because in the games, he never has teeth when he should.

That and that smile and set of teeth are just nightmare fuel.

I'm literally laughing my butt off at that Detective Pikachu thing. I mean even Meowth talking had NOTHING on how jarring this is.

If it makes it to the states I'm seriously going to have to get it solely on the absolutely insane premise alone. Of course, knowing America, they'll give him a more fitting childish voice if they do bring it here... :V

One thing that I don't like about Detective Pikachu. WHERE THE **** IS LOOKER?
Which is exactly why I came on to post here. The game looks interesting and I kind of want it. I hope it comes to the states.

But I'm making an outlandish prediction right now:

The Pikachu is somehow going to be looker, he'll be like Bill but something else would have made him a pokemon.

Thoughts? I think it's absurd enough to work.
