I was meaning 'too seriously', but left out the 'too'. But it's obvious that a live action Pikachu movie won't take it self too seriously, seeing as it's a freaking Pikachu in a realistic environment. It's going to at least have comedic relief and not try to be a completely serious movie.

So, this is the only dot set that has been partially released on Badge Arcade. Others tend to come in complete groups.

Detective Pikachu could be a great quirky film - but it's not going to be a great live action/CGI film as many of us would have hoped for.
We all know how rich the lore of the Pokémon world is, and how great it could potentially be translated to movie. But, hey, if this gives them a chance to refine their CGI work, I'm all for it.
And as that other guy/gal said: sweet Arceus on a scooter.

Well, in terms of the technology: Jon Favreau's Jungle Book. All filmed on a sound stage in LA, and that film was beautiful.
As for "great", there's a lot they could do, sure: Mewtwo could be Akira and trash a city; we could have adaptations of the games - or at least the general plots, minus perhaps gyms; we could see a live action version of the Pokémon games or the games coming to life in the real world (GO/Bakugan/Yu-Gi-Oh/Digimon and most other such Easternly influenced franchises). There's a lot they could have done, and the lore of Pokémon is immensely thicker and heavier than a lot of people outside of the fanbase believe it to be.
But hey, I'm not complaining about Detective Pikachu. It's actually a great starting point.

I don't think the game plots would mage good movies... What should happen actualy? Especially since the story in the games is mostly... weaker.
And 'games coming to life in the real world'? I don't think this fits well into the Pokemon lore. Digimon is based around this concept. It's all about digital monsters becaming real. Pokemon has no connection with this topic.

Objectively, it still looked like a boy with CGI animals for most the runtime. We're not quite there yet for a completely realistic Pokemon movie, so TPC is smart to wait a little longer. Perhaps they'll see Beauty and the Beast next year and be convinced otherwise. But a film like Detective Pikachu can be done to a very high standard.

New Sun and Moon news to come on the 1st of August. I wonder what it would bring? Maybe the first look into the Alola region? Or maybe new pokemon again?

A mix. Perhaps something about GO interaction, to tie in with Japanese launch of GO?

Honestly, I hope the news in August isn't another batch of pokemon.
I'd like to see some info on the other islands, maybe see some gym leaders. I mean, how long are they going to go before revealing any of this?

Oh yeah, I agree. I actually don't think these films will be as CGI heavy as that film, and rather, that the Pokémon would be in as good a design and shape in the same level of CGI. I mean, Sugimori based CGI work would look astounding!
I have no complaints but one up to this point: I want them to slow down on the reveal of new Pokémon. Other than that, I don't mind them going dark on plot points - especially the evil team, I'd much rather receive some silhouettes the month the game is released to really build up some hype - but the lack of gym leaders has me puzzled up to this point (and I certainly don't believe any of those supposed "leaks"). New island information would be nice, but seeing as we're getting it in CC anyways...I think we'll get 1 or 2 new Pokémon and a look at some of the features, perhaps the names of the places on MeleMele.

Personally I hope they reveal the new amie mode, they introduced Hyper Training, I think it's about time they introduce Gen 7 amie
it looks way better than the previous one, I wonder why I don't see a button for games though, I'm assuming the one on the left is food.

So far we are only missing the teased new features(Super moves, riding Pokémon, uncharted areas), so the next trailer will likely be about that.
Outside of that I expect a few more Melemele Pokémon, with Corocoro covering whatever it is going to cover two weeks later.
