Detective Pikachu (2019) is a live-action/CGI hybrid film that brings the Pokémon universe to life in a bustling metropolis where humans and Pokémon coexist. The story follows Tim Goodman, a former aspiring Pokémon Trainer, who teams up with Detective Pikachu, a wisecracking, amnesiac Pikachu voiced by Ryan Reynolds, to unravel the mystery behind his father's disappearance. Set in Ryme City, the film features a diverse array of Pokémon, blending nostalgia with new interpretations.
Main Pokemon in the Movie:
Detective Pikachu
The main character and Tim's partner.
Pikachu is the film’s heart and guide, serving as both comic relief and investigative partner to Tim Goodman. Though only Tim can understand him unlike typical Pikachu, this one talks and brings a sarcastic, witty personality that contrasts Tim’s straight-laced demeanor. Pikachu’s sharp instincts, intimate knowledge of Ryme City, and unusual ability to communicate with humans make him indispensable in unraveling the mystery of Harry Goodman’s disappearance.
Mewtwo (Psychic type)
Mewtwo is the film’s pivotal force, a genetically engineered psychic Pokémon whose powers are central to the story’s conflict. As a creature torn between loyalty, fear, and the manipulation of others, Mewtwo embodies both the threat and the hope of the Pokémon world.
As a Legendary Psychic Pokémon, Mewtwo was genetically engineered from Mew’s DNA to surpass all others in strength.
Psyduck
Psyduck, Lucy Stevens’ companion, provides both humor and heart.

Snubble is a small, Fairy-type Pokémon with a playful and curious nature and a grumpy face.
Charizard (fire-type)
When Tim goes to the fighting arena, the only way he can get the info he needs is by accepting a rematch between Harry’s Pikachu and the arena’s owner Charizard. This is the only proper Pokémon battle in the movie and features Charizard’s signature moves.
Charizard is a Fire / Flying-type Pokémon resembling a dragon, famous for its fierce flames and flying ability. It’s strong, proud, and often acts independently, capable of unleashing devastating fire attacks in battle.
