This trailer amps up the action, and has cameos by some familiar Pokemon, including the Legendary Mewtwo! Ryan Reynolds stars as the voice of Detective Pikachu, who is determined to find Harry Goodman, his former partner, to help figure out why he has amnesia. But Harry has gone missing, and his son, Tim, is also searching for him. And he does not want a talking, caffeine addicted, wise-cracking Pokemon to tag along.
The film opens in theaters on May 10. The first trailer can be seen here: “'Pokemon Detective Pikachu' Trailer.” The Pokemon Company International has already unveiled merchandise and Pokemon TCG product tie-ins for the film (see “See the First Wave of 'Detective Pikachu' Merch”).
