That's kinda .... weird. Not sure how they can make a entire movie out of that, guess it'll be something kids could enjoy. Shrugs.

Seem to me like Nintendo maybe hedged on the idea of a full blown Pokemon live action movie and wanted to see Legendary/Universal handle a smaller scale concept.

This is more of a deal between TPC and Legendary Pictures. Plus, a few have mentioned why this is a possible idea because it's easier to adapt compared to a full fledged RPG. Even Derrick from GameXplain thought this is easier to adapt since there is more storytelling and Detective Pikachu is one of the main stars, which will at least help the audience get more invested due to their familiarity with the Pokemon. I have only seen a few bits of gameplay of the game and I think it's simple and a little interesting. Hopefully this works.
