New Pikachu Spin-Off Announced

NHK has finished airing and revealed a mysterious new Pokémon game, starring Dr Watso Pikachu! This spin-off seems to be some creepy detective game. Not much is known, except that it will feature a Blue Pikachu that apparently can talk (must be due to Fukushima) and who is the villain. The developers used motion capture to give Pikachu better facial expressions, but I have no idea where they got the Pikachu to do that from. More details will likely be released in the following months/years.

Also mentioned was a Pokémon Trozei (Link) sequel, but it appears to be abandoned, or maybe it will see life as an eShop only title. Stay tuned for that too!

 

OLD: The teaser trailer released last week and has teased an all new game with Tsunekazu Ishihara appearing on the show sharing some details on the game that is currently in development. We’ll provide details ASAP!

  1. oh man i said i be back in a week wind being gone lol, seriously so much to talk about good and bad about x and y but have to wait a little longer as i stop playing felt like i breeze through it too fast( i was warn about exp share but kept it on lol) so i stop right before meeting yveltal, plus had to stop everytime i was training kept getting battle request seriously what’s up with that i am not ready lol. but a little back theat new pikachu game does sound and from what little was shown looks weird too but its early stage so can’t judge, but i would love to see pikablue finally realize( ahh the good ole days), as for that marrialnd theroies i been hearing, he brings up good but i would take it all with a grain a salt especially the strategy guide mentioning new regions, strategy books have been known to misprint and in fact mislead those who buy them so i wouldnt use that to say something new is definetly coming and even if it is true it could be anything, could be one new region that still count as plural, regions could be one more or many.

  2. Anyone want a Technician Breloom? I have a whole box full of them from when I was catching them looking for differing perfect IVs.

  3. Wow I just realized the Bulletproof Chesnaught completely walls Mega Venusaur.
    It’s immune to Energy Ball, Sludge Bomb, Sleep Power (due to it being a grass type), and Leech Seed. It even resists Earthquake.
