History

Detective Pikachu meets Tim Goodman sometime after he arrives in Ryme City. Together with Tim and the Ryme City Detective Agency, Pikachu solves puzzles and mysteries.

Personality and characteristics

In addition to his ability to talk, Detective Pikachu displays a number of human traits. He likes drinking coffee and tea, and is easily infatuated with attractive human women.

Detective Pikachu appears to have sacrificed most of his abilities as a Pikachu. As such, he cannot use moves, and is not very fast. However, as a talking Pokémon, he can interpret and translate testimony from other Pokémon.
