Description
Unravel a series of mysteries across Ryme City with a tough-talking, coffee-loving Pikachu and his human partner, Tim Goodman. When a jewel theft occurs, the case sets this great detective duo down a path filled with mystery. Why did Timβs father, Harry, go missing? What is causing the PokΓ©mon-related incidents around Ryme City? Answer these questions and more by searching for clues, investigating scenes, and using your case notebook to make deductions.
Talk with PokΓ©mon directly and use their abilities to uncover clues
The gruff Detective Pikachu can talk directly with PokΓ©mon. Learn more about the case and Ryme City as you chat up the local PokΓ©mon. Youβll see a different side of PokΓ©mon as you discover their distinct personalities. Some of these PokΓ©mon use their special skills to assist your investigations. Take a ride on Growlithe to track scents using its sharp sense of smell!
Investigate Ryme City, where PokΓ©mon and people live side by side
Search for clues in Ryme City, where PokΓ©mon and humans live and work side by side. With the help of the cityβs PokΓ©mon and people, Tim and his talkative Pikachu partner solve multiple cases. Investigate and deduce as the detective duo, both together and individually, on a search for the truth in this cinematic adventure game.
Need some help with your deductions and game progress? If you ever get stuck during your investigation, you can consult Pikachu to get a hint. You can also activate a correct selection indicator when making deductions or while investigating a scene. With Story Jump Mode, you can choose to play any episode of the story. You can use it to replay episodes that youβve already completed or skip ahead to episodes you havenβt played yet!
