What The Internet Is Saying About The Detective Pikachu Trailer

There’s going to be a Detective Pikachu movie coming out next year. And truth be told, I’m actually looking forward to it.

Ryan Reynolds voicing the only Pikachu who can converse with a human with actual sentences and words? Brilliant. And that realistic fur and Pokémon coming to life; I had to double-check if I was on my meds at one point.

Anyway, the internet reacts to the trailer in interesting ways. Let’s go take a look. First, the positive ones…

"The kids call it Ass Koffing. They catch poison-type Pokemon and huff the gas out of them to get high. Too bad the morgue says the comedown ain't pretty." pic.twitter.com/E1Xzig1Kpb

When the Sonic movie gets revealed, it’s pretty much going to be the same as Detective Pikachu but fans are going to be more pissed for some reason

To be fair, Mr. Mime does look freaky.

I’m gonna go with “Team Rocket shenanigans” on this one…

My biggest issue with the Detective Pikachu trailer…

WHO LOST THEIR SQUIRTLE?
WHY IS THIS PANCHAM STILL MISSING?
WAS IT TEAM ROCKET?!

I look forward to the obvious cop typecast guest cameos featuring Dean Norris, Michael Chiklis, and Andre Braugher.
