Look at my beautiful robo-golem boy.

I gotta admit, I didn’t expect them to have this big of a variety of Pokémon in the movie. Good to see they’re adding Pokémon from almost all the generations into the movie.

It's Beautiful...

Same energy

 

[Gentlepanda]

I know it won't happen because Mewtwo is the big bad of the movie, but could we get something like Tyranitar and Hydreigon to have a Godzilla style Pokemon battle in the city?

tyranitar is 6'1"

It'd be so easy to just lean on Gen 1, but instead they made it a love letter to the Pokemon series and those who love it.

Oh my god I'm taller than a literal kaiju what is life.

if detective pikachu is so good then why can't he find my ****ing serotonin

 

[Diem]

Man you can just feel the love and creativity bursting out of that movie. Compared to the upcoming Monster Hunter movie, which is taking the Transformers approach to the series because the people behind it are creatively bankrupt and don't know or care at all about the source material. And then there's the Sonic movie, where... who knows what they're doing.

Thank God we're finally going to have a good video game adaptation to prove that yes, it can be done if you actually care about the source material and work hard to faithfully represent it on the big screen.

When you see Palkia, the movie ought to flip upside down.

This actually makes me so happy. I didn't notice this the first time I watched. My favorite Pokemon, 10/10 movie.

 

[Opossum]

I know it probably wasn't, but damn it all, I WANT to believe Mewtwo and Pikachu fighting on the balloons was a Poké Floats reference.

 

[Gyrom8]

Have we seen Lucario yet? Feel that's the only big-name Pokemon that's missing so far

If a remix of this starts playing during that scene, then whoever made that decision is a goddamn hero.

 

[Deleted member]

when do we get Fennekin in the movie tho

 

[Admiral Pit]

So I come here to find Ludicolo look like some derpy Furby wearing a straw hat. and Golurk being a stone magma robot with a bandaid on it. The Growlithe are pretty accurate.

Such images might be interesting after all and good for my creative brain.

Y'all already forgot about Endgame huh smh

I could see it going either way, frankly. Endgame is probably gonna clear $2 billion, easy, but Pokemon is the most profitable media franchise in the world. Bigger than Star Wars or any other superhero. And that's just in its relatively short 23 year lifespan. The games, cards, anime, and everything else are all massively popular even to this day.

So take that 23 years of historic popularity and profits, and now give it a genuinely promising and good Hollywood movie to finally cash in on it. And compared to many other Hollywood movies that compete against other similar movies, Detective Pikachu has no direct competition. It's not a superhero movie, it's not a straight action movie, not a thriller, not a comedy, not anything that fits into any easily defined genre. It's completely unique and something that hasn't really been done before.

It all depends on the final product; if reviews come in and it's actually a mess somehow, then that'll wound it. But from all appearances, it looks like the plot is fairly straightforward, being a detective story (which is a pretty genius move to keep things simple), while putting most of the energy and creativity into the world, which is going to be the most interesting depiction of the Pokemon world ever.

I'm gonna see it.

The one where hell exists in Pokemon at the same time as the Distortion World even though the DW is just kind of an antimatter thing

So am I on a good day, fun fact.

I'm not nearly as good-looking as that beast of a pokemon though.

Oh yeah, this movie is gonna be ****ing huuuuuge
This is definitely a top 5 grossing movie, probably #2 or #1
I just think that considering how huge the MCU is, and specifically how huge Infinity War was and Endgame being a direct sequel to it resolving a huge-ass cliffhanger where everyone ****ing died? It's gonna be hard to beat.
