The trailer for a brand new stay motion Pokémon present has debuted but it surely’s nothing like Detective Pikachu.
First launched in 1996, in Japan, Pokémon mania slowly took over the world, with the buying and selling card sport showing just a few months later and an anime present beginning in 1999.
The stay motion film in 2019 was solely a minor hit however now an actual life collection is coming to streaming, from October 19. It’s known as PokéTsume, or Pocket Crammed With Journey in English and it’s… not what you’d count on.
When you’re hoping to see CGI Charizards, Snorlaxes, and Pikachus within the wild, you’ll be upset, but it surely is perhaps enjoyable anyway.
The present follows a college graduate who strikes to Tokyo to start out a brand new, worrying job. Sooner or later she receives a parcel along with her previous Recreation Boy and Pokémon Crimson in it, and he or she begins to see parallels in Pokémon and her actual life.
The trailer makes the present appear like a light-hearted love letter to the unique Pokémon video games, though it’s tough to inform for positive as all the pieces is in Japanese.
Nonetheless, the audience will certainly be those that grew up with Pokémon on their Recreation Boy or amassing the playing cards.
Apparently a few of the characters on the present are based mostly on pokémon. For instance, there’s a lazy employee based mostly on Magikarp (possibly he has the towering potential to evolve into Gyarados?).
So it received’t be just like the 2019 Pikachu Detective movie, the place a furry Pikachu is voiced by Ryan Reynolds. As an alternative, it’s seemingly a narrative concerning the sport itself and its parallels to the true world.
The collection shall be proven on Tokyo TV from October 19, however no date appears to have been set for a UK or US launch but.
