* Mostly confirmed on the consciousness part, though. It turns out that [[spoiler:''both'' Harry and Pikachu's minds are currently in Pikachu]], which is why Pikachu can't remember anything, and Mewtwo ''can'' separate them, but [[spoiler:Harry chooses not at the moment since it's too risky]].

* Confirmed in the sequel. [[spoiler:Harry is indeed occupying Pikachu's mind, and Pikachu is heavily implied to have taken back over during that scene, as Mewtwo states that Pikachu having used a move makes the competing consciousnesses even more complicated and risky than they already are. The "original" Pikachu is also the one who begged Mewtwo to put Harry's mind in his body.]]

A chemical that greatly ammplifies the power of a pokemon but has unethical side effects certinally sounds like something that would suit the premier criminal syndicate of the pokemon world and considering the anime and manga versions of Team Rocket have strong connections with Mewtwo they would be strong canadiates for the mastermind behind Keith Norman and the providers of the Mewtwo Beserk Gene. Having the criminal organization show up in the sequel would only be logical and would provide foes who are a greater threat than the usual criminals Tim Goodman and Detective Pikachu regularly deal with. It would be a great way of reversing the trend of Team Rocket in the main line games becoming sillier with each generation, by showing how truely dangerous and cruel Team Rocket can be especially when you are not a veteran pokemon leauge trainer who has a roster of strong pokemon for protection.

Considering how the other Pikachu just uses PokemonSpeak, and that the titular Pikachu [[VocalDissonance has an unnatural, manly voice]], and a ''human'' sidekick, to boot. it will be just like adult-turned-boy Manga/DetectiveConan, except that instead of becoming a kid, he become a Pokémon.

* Now jossed, it's been revealed this Pikachu learned the human language much like Team Rocket's Meowth, and even suffers from being unable to use any of his moves due to it. Though the game has shown that only Tim can actually understand him... all other humans hear the typical PokemonSpeak.

[[WMG: Detective Pikachu is serving as a mental hard drive for Harry's mind.]]
In the climactic battle, Detective Pikachu finally unleashes a Thunderbolt to defeat Noivern. Just before he does so, we hear him say:
--> You... can't... I.. won't... let... you... [[PokemonSpeak Pika… Piiiikaaaachuuuu!]]
Unlike previous moments in the game where we've heard this, we haven't changed viewpoint, yet PokemonSpeak is in full force. Moreover, when Tim asks Detective Pikachu about his Thunderbolt the next morning, [[LaserGuidedAmnesia Detective Pikachu has no idea what he's talking about]]. Combined with Mewtwo saying that his bargain was made with "the real you" when talking to Detective Pikachu, this may indicate that Harry and Pikachu are operating the same brain, but not at the same time -- the "processing space" can only be occupied by one personality at a time, and that's usually Harry's, with Pikachu only surfacing in moments of extreme pain, as when he was being pummeled by Noivern's sound waves, in order to use Moves.
