In Great Detective Pikachu: The Bird of a New Duo, our titular sleuth is able to talk. But not everyone can understand him, including the women he tries to pick up on the street.
The gameās intro starts with a dream sequence and then cuts to Pikachu in Rhyme City. When he talks to people, all they hear is āPika pika.ā After he fails to chat up a lady on the street, he wonders, āWhere is someone who understands what Iām saying?ā That someone is Tim Goodman, who has arrived in the city to look for his father, who disappeared two months ago.
