Whereas it won’t be the announcement of a full film, The Pokémon Firm has launched a brand new quick movie centered on Ryme Metropolis’s prime investigator, as ‘Detective Pikachu and the Thriller of the Lacking Flan’ provides one other bite-sized increase of case-cracking goodness.
The brand new quick was shared on The Official Pokémon YouTube channel yesterday and it’s actually fairly candy. This one follows Detective Pikachu and Tim as they try to trace down the latter’s lacking flan — a criminal offense that we will all agree, is totally unacceptable. At solely six minutes in size, the thriller is just about an open-and-close case, however there may be sufficient story right here to maintain issues fascinating. And an adorable-looking Munchlax, which by no means hurts.
However who’s guilty? What occurred to Tim’s flan? And can Pikachu ever get to complete his espresso? You’ll have to try the quick to seek out out.
We had a wonderfully good time with the lately launched Detective Pikachu Returns, notably praising its writing, although we felt that the sport’s shoddy visuals let it down. Luckily, that has been improved massively for this quick, with crisp, nearly Dreamworks-looking animation accompanying the identical witty writing for which the video games are rightfully praised.
It is not a lot, however we might be pleased to see extra Detective Pikachu shorts sooner or later — if solely to face in for these ace Pikmin ones from 2014.
