■ Pikachu The Pikachu that appears in this game is a Great Detective that can talk to Tim. He’s a little bossy and always pushy. He has a weakness for beautiful girls and urges Tim to invite interested women to tea. He loves coffee and has a regular cafe he visits. He never stops talking about all the things he knows. Pikachu always walks on two feet, even in emergencies. And even when going at full speed, he’s pretty slow. He can’t use any attacks or successfully discharge electricity, and doesn’t like being instructed. He is a reliable Great Detective with skillful insight and calm judgment. ■ Other Characters Detective Agency President, Mike Baker Detective Agency Assistant, Amanda Braxton Newcomer TV Channel Assistant Director, Emilia Christie Energetic TV Director, Maiko Okamoto High Hat Cafe Master, Pablo Milan ■ Pokemon A mischief-loving Aipom A fashionable boy Furfrou A Scraggy that plays in the park A Slurpuff that gives you drink samples A serious delivery Fletchling A Ludicolo waitress who feigns ignorance A courtyard elder Trevenant A goes-where-the-wind-blows Drifblim A dark lamp Litwick ■ Playing the Game Players become Tim, and can go around gathering evidence and information.
