Just over two months out from its premier date , Detective Pikachuhas received a second trailer diving profoundly into WB ’s new , big - screenPokémonuniverse . Longtime fans will no doubt acknowledge many of them , but since the prevue moves quite fast at times , it ’s easy to misplace raceway of all of the trailer ’s Pokémon . In total , there are 25 Pokémon in thesecondDetective Pikachutrailer , and we ’ve caught them all .
Pikachu
Detective Pikachu ( Reynolds ) is up first , and it so far appears Reynolds is bringing much of the humor of the charm he breathed intoDeadpoolto his voice performance inDetective Pikachu(sans raunchy violation , of form ) . Detective Pikachu shares the spotlight with former Pokémon trainer Tim Goodman ( Smith ) . Visually speaking , some fan first articulated doubt about alive - actionPokémonfilm due to the unearthly valley effectthey claimed it induced . However , if the equally adorable and technically impressive rendition of Pikachu above is n’t enough to sway the unassured , there may be no convincing them . For the first time in the latest prevue , Detective Pikachu can be seen flexing his thrilling moveset , using iconic move Thunderbolt and another resembling Zippy Zap , an Electric - type move introduced inPokémon Let ’s Go PikachuandEevee .
Ludicolo
Much like in thePokémonanime , it appears some Pokémon fulfill working roles advantageously fitting them in Ryme City , Detective Pikachu’smetropolitan set . It ’s fitting , then , that a " sombrero"-wearing Ludicolo can be seen behind the counter at a trendy bar . There ’s little grounds to suggestDetective Pikachuwill explore any grownup themes beyondDetective Pikachu ’s demandfor Tim to " get [ him ] the hell out of here " while fighting in a indisposed Pokémon arena , but it ’s likely that Ludicolo serves alcoholic drink to humans ( and maybe even Pokémon ) . After all , Tim is a world - weary adult and Detective Pikachu is an amnesiac , caffein - addicted detective who ’s probably seen more than his fair share of crime .
Charizard
Detective Pikachu’slive - action Charizard looks as dastardly as in former appearances , with its scars , scales , and anatomy making it an intimidating sight to behold . senior footage showed Detective Pikachu facing off against the fearsome Fire / flight - eccentric with little context , but the fresh trailer reveals the Charizard is a competition in an undercover Pokémon scrap gang , presumptively have by what Detective Pikachu refers to as " the haywire gang . " While it ’s possible this Charizard is live its best life history as a friend of the arena , the implications of unregulated Pokémon cage matches in the underbody of Ryme City explore a dimension of amorality largely ignored by thePokémonuniverse .

Charmander, Growlithe, and Golurk
In a brief shot in which Tim approaches the Ryme City police force station where his escape Padre and - presumptively - Detective Pikachu body of work , three new Pokémon can be descry . A Charmander walk beside its owner , while two cops are accompany by working Growlithe . The use of the latter Fire - types as workings brute could connote the trailer ’s Growlithe are kin to puppy K9 unit in training , with Arcanine possibly serve as in full - produce police force dog-iron . In the scope , two predominate Golurk ( ancient automaton Pokémon ) stand watch over the department ingress .
Machamp and Snorlax
A hefty Machamp can be see directing Ryme City traffic , an interesting but coherent line for the four - armed Fighting - Type . Meanwhile , a surprisingly furred Snorlax snooze in the middle of the route . This catnap Snorlax is a screaming ocular nod to the first multiplication ofPokémongames , where the behemoth Pokémon blocks the critical path and player must wake theSnorlax using the Poké Flute itemto progress .
Snubbull
A Snubbull was earlier seen in the power of Lieutenant Yoshida ( Ken Watanabe ) , snarl at the peace officer when he reached his handwriting out to pet the pink Pokémon . In a jarring instance in which a Pokémon ’s real size is demonstrated , Snubbull are apparently quite large despite their resemblance to the smaller American Bulldog . Considering the stature and unfriendliness ofDetective Pikachu’slive - action Snubbull , it ’s chilling to believe how massive and furious its evolution , Granbull , could look with similar live - activity handling .

Bulbasaur
NoPokémonGen 1 - fill cast would be complete withoutRedandBlue’sstrongest starter , and the newDetective Pikachutrailer is n’t the first peek at Bulbasaur given thus far . Considering thelive - action Pokémon ’s excellent ocular modulation to CG , though , it ’s a safe bet that no one ’s complaining . A small herd of Bulbasaur are shown fording a river in the wild , but it ’s yet unknown how its Ivysaur and Venusaur phylogeny may appear if they ’re also featured in the movie .

Lickitung
It ’s still hard to not feel weird about Lickitung ’s design inDetective Pikachu , and that seems to be intentional . Once again reckon giving Tim an unsolicited look at its torso - distance tongue , reptilian face , and soulless eye , Lickitung seems poised to maintain its creepiness factor for children and adult viewers likewise .
Squirtle and Pancham
While not fully try like other Pokémon in theDetective Pikachutrailer , missing posters for a Squirtle and Pancham were the first clues aboutDetective Pikachu ’s core conflict . Squirtle is anotherPokémonRedandBluestarter , and it ’s lamentably the only one yet to be express in its live - action glory . Meanwhile , Pancham is a giant panda - breathe in Fighting - character introduced inPokémonGen 6 . As this trailer explores the fact that Ryme City ( and perhaps the Pokémon reality at enceinte ) are harry by criminal action , it ’s likely these posters orient to a Team Rocket - like conspiracy stirring difficulty for Detective Pikachu and Tim .
Illumise
Among the aforementioned wild Bulbasaur throng is a gather of Illumise , firefly - comparable Bug Pokémon which are solely female . Set aside from their all - male Volbeat counterparts by their big eyes and empurpled fuzz - like peak , they produce eggs that have an equal prospect of hatching into either Volbeat or more Illumise .
Psyduck
stock on the back of diarist Lucy ( Kathryn Newton ) , the deceptively incapacitated Psyduck is show tag along on the journeying to expose the truth behindDetective Pikachu’skidnappings . Resembling a large duckling , Psyduck is a Water Pokémon popularized by the classicPokémonanime series , with Misty ’s star pocket behemoth last as a rooter favorite . The apparent defenselessness of Lucy ’s Pokémon is deceiving , as all Psyduck are simply in a headache - inducing transitory stage prior to develop into powerful psychical - character Golduck . demonstrate its latent world power , Psyduck causes an explosive shockwave later on in the trailer .
Jigglypuff
One of the first alive - natural process Pokémon showcased in the pastDetective Pikachutrailer , Jigglypuff ’s cuddly visual aspect is nothing Modern but still worth its latest trailer filmdom prison term . Here , the pink , furry puppet again manifest the strength of its Sing move by serenade a man to kip at an espresso bar .
Loudred
One of Gen 3 ’s most visually freakish Pokémon , Loudred is , well … really loud . It ’s therefore meet that a duad of them seem to function as talker of some form at the cheap underground Pokémon combat ring . Also visible at this pointedness of the dawdler is an interesting way of acknowledging the series’video biz roots inDetective Pikachu . A large blind feed flight simulator and looker information about battles with messages like " critical hitting , " which is commonly only see by real - world players looking at a hand-held concealment .

Blastoise and Gengar
Blastoise , the inarguably badass last form of Squirtle , is only visible outside of its shell for a few brief human body before retreating back at heart to give birth a spin salvo from its water cannon . It can be blemish fighting what seems to be multiple Gengar . While the Gengar at times resemble their low Haunter descriptor in theDetective Pikachutrailer , this is due to their non - somatic , ghoulish nature .

Cubone
Cubone , the tragical Pokémon who wear the skull of its deceased Kangaskhan female parent , is so far the first live - action Pokémon to be picture leave a Poké Ball , andDetective Pikachu ’s handling of the iconic animation is on the money . The Cubone itself is only amply visible for three frames , but the CG Poké Ball ’s manner of blow a fuse to release the small , bone - brandishing Pokémon for battle is extremely fulfil to find out .
Eevee/Flareon
Opting for a version of Eevee similar to the one players are given inPokémon : Let ’s Go Eeveefor Nintendo Switch , this happen Eevee is in reality Flareon , a Gen 1 evolution . Appearing out of thin aviation in front of Mythical Pokémon Dialga , Arceus , and Palkia statues - thePokémonuniverse ’s respective original of time , creation , and blank - contribute deep insight into what ’s gone wrong inDetective Pikachu . While unconfirmed , but it ’s possible Team Rocket or a stand - in group are playing god , kidnapping Pokémon and using them to somehow create or assume life .
Greninja
Well - know for its ninja - inspired excogitation and switch of Mewtwo and Lucario inSuper Smash Bros. 4’sroster , the secondDetective Pikachutrailer ’s Greninja do n’t seem to mean well for film ’s main characters . All - new footage evidence Greninja chasing the protagonists around a facility , while a previously give away shot feature article the malicious Water - Dark - type trey ambushing the wedge in the state of nature . It ’s interesting that most Pokémon in the moving-picture show seem to be gentle if not favorable , stand for there ’s a chance these Greninja are not act on their own volition .

Mewtwo
That ’s right : Mewtwo is inDetective Pikachu , stand for the movie might be the closest thing Hollywood ever gets to a live - action mechanism version ofPokémon the Movie 2000 . Mewtwo is teased before in the novel house trailer when a three - toed hand is shown pulling its owner out of a laboratory seedcase , and then again when glass violently shatters out of what seems to be the same apparatus . Mewtwo is probable theDetective Pikachuvillains ' endgame : the everlasting celluloid Pokémon . However , where there ’s hummer there ’s flaming , and where there ’s Mewtwo there may be Mew . With chance , Detective Pikachuaudiences will get to see the mega - hefty , hombre - like Legendary Pokémon in resilient - military action , as well .
Mr. Mime
Adding some levity to the end of the trailer after Mewtwo ’s dramatic reveal , the same Mr. Mime interrogated by Tim and Detective Pikachu in the first prevue attempt to escape from custody in a new conniption . fortuitously for the protagonist , Mr. Mime seems to only understand reality through the lens of spate gags . The Pokémon mimic a motorcycle chase until dramatically " crashing , " prompting Detective Pikachu to quip , " Shoulda worn a helmet . "
