A new global mission has started in Pokemon Ultra Sun and Pokemon Ultra Moon. For the fifth event, it’s been given the title “Trade Pokemon at the GTS!”

Players are tasked with collectively trading 1,000,000 Pokemon by 23:59 UTC on March 19, 2018. If the goal is reached, those who participated will receive 2,000 Festival Coins. Even if the goal isn’t reached, everyone will receive 1,000 Festival Coins as a participation reward. These totals are doubled if you register your game at the Pokemon Global Link by the end of the global mission.

It goes without saying, but Detective Pikachu is a very different kind of Pokemon game. Pikachu has a voice, and the character acts in a completely different way than fans are used to.

USgamer spoke with Hiroyuki Jinnai about the new game. One of the aspects discussed is how the team wanted to offer “something totally different” with this version of Pikachu.

Thanks to an update from The Pokemon Company, we have fresh information about the 3DS game Detective Pikachu. New details have been provided about the game’s first three chapters and more.

Here’s the full lowdown:

This month’s launch of Detective Pikachu technically isn’t the first time that the game will be available. Initially, it had a release on the Japanese 3DS eShop back in 2016.

Now Nintendo is bringing out Detective Pikachu worldwide, including a physical version in all regions. Compared to the 2016 edition, significant content has been added in. Whereas the Japanese eShop version had three chapters, the final game contains nine. That means Detective Pikachu should be about three times longer than it originally was.
