** To be fair, the only photo we actually see is [[spoiler:the one of Ditto-as-Pikachu. While that one ''is'' pretty obvious, it could be that the Control Cubes are better hidden in the others]].

*** The ending of the first game was different in one manner. Harry ''chose'' to remain as Detective Pikachu because of two reasons revealed in the sequel. The first reason, as given by Mewtwo, was that returning Harry's consciousness to his original body would have a 50% chance of '''killing''' both Harry and Pikachu because of how intertwined the two had become over the course of the story. The second reason was that Harry wanted to see his son grow up, and he can't do that if he's dead. The twist wasn't that Harry was stuck as Pikachu. The twist was that Harry had to give up his memories and any abilities in order to save his partner and his family.

** Probably because all of the help they could have possibly provided in the field would have been overshadowed by the abilities of the other Pokémon that assisted. Their office was also the closest thing Tim and Pikachu had to a "hub" between chapters in the old game, and that position was mostly overtaken by Tim's apartment now that it added Tim's mom and little sister.
