A Really Great Video Game Movie
Pokemon: Detective Pikachu is a 2019 video game film adaptation directed by Rob Letterman with screenplay written by Letterman, Dan Hernandez, Benji Samit and Derek Connolly from a story by Hernandez, Samit, and Nicole Perlman. The movie is produced by Warner Bros. Pictures, Legendary Pictures and The Pokemon Company, in association with Toho Co., Ltd. It's based on the Pokemon franchise created by Satoshi Tajiri and the 2016 video game Detective Pikachu. The movie stars Justice Smith, Kathryn Newton, Suki Waterhouse, Ken Watanabe, and Bill Nighy.
Tim Goodman (Justice Smith) is a 21-year-old insurance salesman who gave up on training Pokemon at a young age. While hanging out with his friend Jack, he receives a call that his father Harry died while investigating a case. He travels to Ryme City, where his father was a detective and where Pokemon fighting is outlawed. It is a metropolis that pushes the bonds of humans and Pokemon by not conforming to some of the usual Pokemon world rules, such as battles or pokeballs. Tim is there to collect his father's belongings and encounters a Pikachu that can speak and he can somehow understand it. And together they try to uncover why Tim's father was killed.
This movie was lots of fun and very enjoyable, even for people that might not know anything about Pokemon. Ryan Reynolds did a great job in portraying the coffee drinking Pikachu detective. The plot was a little weak and could have been better, but I didn't hold that against it too hard since its kind of a kids movie. The CGI was beautiful in a lot of ways, somethings like the city and the skin and texture on Pokemon were phenomenal, but kinda fell short in a few scenes. Some of the human actors were definitely better than others and it shows but doesn't kill the whole movie or vibe. I really liked seeing Ryme City though, it was just so awesome to see all the Pokemon and people interacting and the world building done to make it look real, like it could exist in real life. I think they could of used Ken Watanabe more in the movie, he's a pretty good actor I feel was under utilized. This was a really great video game movie though and I think one that breaks the stigma that video game movies aren't good or successful. I give this movie a 7.
I almost gave it an 8 but I feel that it's nostalgia and my love for the Pokemon games and cartoon movies that are behind that. But I do give it my seal of approval, that you should go see this movie in theaters, especially if you are a Pokemon fan or if you have kids who are.

Great fun
This game has the storyline plus extra places you can discover by flying with Pokemon and playing at different times of day or with different pokemon in your party. You need to google a guidebook to get the absolute most out of this game or just keep going by luck and having fun growing your pokedex.

Best video game adaptation ever
Watched this with my partner who is a huge pokemon fan, whilst I'm a fan but not as obsessed. We both loved the film, it's cheesy, it's incredibly funny and even with a predictable plot (It's a family film, I'm not bothered) I was still engaged with what was gonna on.

Very much fun and retro at the same time!
I remember watching my son play Pokemon Colosseum or Pokemon XD for Gamecube back when he was young and this game feels a lot like that.
The story mode is entertaining so far, the map pretty expansive and the characters you meet are entertaining. Let's face it though, it's all about the battles!
It is fun with the old style of turn-based RPG as you are used to with other Pokemon games.
I am probably not very far yet, but it takes a lot to keep my attention and this one has so far!

A bad choice of advancement for the Pokemon franchise.
I'm an avid Pokemon player. I started when Gen 1 first came out, and I have played every "Blue aligned" game since then, and all the third games as well (Yellow, Crystal, etc.).
That being said, this game was executed extremely poorly. Niantic ignores basic aspects of Pokemon (trading is notable here) in favor of fixes that are needed but not as crucial. Pokemon events around the world are a joke, leading to people paying money for travel or tickets and then leaving them high and dry. It was a great idea, but Niantic was a poor choice for execution. You only had to look at the way they ignored their other game, Ingress, to know it wasn't going to work out.
For a game that had such promise, I am extremely disappointed. Better luck next time.

Literally Pokemon Go for wizards
I would like to start by announcing that I am a die hard Harry Potter fan, so I am going to have patience for this app whilst it's going through its early stages.
It's literally pokemon go. If you're happy with pokemon go and you aren't obsessed with Harry Potter then you don't need this app. Particularly as it takes up so much phone space.
However so far I have been pleased. I like that there is a mixture of challenges available at fortresses to take part in. The portkeys are an interesting addition. I still can't work out what to do with my seeds.
In conclusion I think this app has great potential but I don't think it's worth it if you don't have a really good phone.
