The Great Detective Duo
When there's a case to be solved, Tim Goodman and Pikachu are the perfect team for the job. Tim is a university student who is still searching for the truth about his missing father, Harry. Joining Tim on his search is Harry's former partner—the self-proclaimed great Detective Pikachu. With his ability to talk to both Tim and Pokémon, Pikachu is able to gather clues from his fellow Pokémon to assist in the investigation.
Partner with Pokémon
Gathering statements is a staple of investigations. With Pikachu’s help, you will be able to gather information not only from humans but from Pokémon as well. Some of these Pokémon may even use their special skills to assist your investigations.
Searching for clues together with Pokémon can help you crack cases wide open. Growlithe is able to track scents using her sharp sense of smell, and she’ll let Pikachu ride around Ryme City on her back to track down evidence.
