As they look for clues around the fictional Ryme City, they get caught up in trouble bigger than they had ever imagined.

The film is based on a game for Nintendo 3DS, which also gave the Pokémon a voice as previously reported by  Deadline. Rob Letterman, who has previously helmed Goosebumps and Monsters vs Aliens has directed the film. Produced by Legendary Pictures, Detective Pikachu is scheduled to release on 10 May by Warner Brothers and Universal Pictures. Watch the video here.
