History Characters / PokemonDetectivePikachu

* RidiculouslyCuteCritter: He's a big-eyed, short limbed, fluffy electric mouse with a constant CatSmile wearing a tiny deerstalker cap.

* CatSmile: His default expression is a smiley (:3) face.

* DeathOfPersonality: Possibly. [[spoiler:Considering the Pikachu that Tim has been bonding with all movie turns out to be a FusionDance of Harry and his Pokémon by Mewtwo to save the former's life, when the two are split it seems Pikachu is BroughtDownToNormal and Tim can no longer understand him, so it's safe to assume Harry's Pikachu no longer has the same personality or mannerisms we've seen all movie. Likewise, Harry himself seems to have no memory of anything that occurred during the fusion.]]

* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: [[spoiler: Although he didn't listen to Lucy's story at the start, that was because she had zero credible sources. After the crisis is over, he gives her full credit for recognizing that she knew about it before anyone else did, and allows her to report it on the news.]]

* AdaptationalBadass: Ditto in the main series has never been as badass as [[spoiler:Ms. Norman, who can shapeshift into many different Pokémon at will and do so in seconds, gaining all their powers for it. It's fairly obvious when it fights Tim during the climax that it's just playing with him and could easily end the fight any time it wanted. [[JustifiedTrope Justified]], as it's genetically modified.]]

* KnightOfCerebus: [[spoiler: {{Downplayed}}: while not a villain, the plot does get more serious once it shows up. After meeting it, Pikachu believes that he betrayed Harry and leaves Tim. Mewtwo being recaptured also kicks off the movie's climax. It's later {{subverted}} once the truth behind its involvement in Harry's disappearance comes out.]]
