Detective Pikachu Week Thirty-Five: A Brief History and Our Personal Histories with Pokémon As a Franchise

Harrison and Ethan have returned this week to deliver the good word of 2019's Pokémon Detective Pikachu. For this week, they decide to zoom out a little bit and focus on the franchise more generally and the effect it has brought to their individual lives. They also give a brief history of the origin of the franchise as well as give their opinions on the recently announced Pokémon: Wild Card and the direction The Pokémon Company seems to be headed. Spoiler: They're cautiously quite optimistic.

Detective Pikachu Week Thirty-Four: There's a Graphic Novel, Too?

This week, brothers Harrison and EK Poole return after another watch through of 2019's Pokémon Detective Pikachu. And a few weeks ago, Harrison discovered that there existed a graphic novel adaptation of the film, and after waiting for it to come in the mail, it finally arrived. So he fast-tracked this episode to get it out while the excitement was still fresh. Does he end up enjoying the graphic novel? Does he have any glaring flaws with it? Would he recommend it? Find out all this and more as the Poole brothers are continually being driven into madness by choosing to watch the same movie every week.

Detective Pikachu Week Thirty-Three: Reviewing Other Reviews

This week, Harrison and EK return for another watch-through of Pokémon Detective Pikachu. They take a look at some reviews that came out around the time the film was still in theaters and attempt to break them down and understand how certain conclusions were arrived at. They also briefly attempt to determine what the purpose of a review is and what service it provides. They've both gone slightly stir crazy at this point, though they're both enjoying the movie and the act of making the show for people to listen to their descent into madness.

Detective Pikachu Week Thirty-Two: Check-in #3

The Poole boys are back again to check in with each other after another viewing of Pokémon Detective Pikachu. They compare their thoughts on where they are with the viewing journey, assess the current state of the show, and discuss possible future iterations that could occur in the coming year. Over halfway through with 2026, they've both hit a bit of a wall but are still enjoying the act of making the show and the movie itself, even if the act of viewing is becoming more of a chore. They still have 20 weeks left.

Detective Pikachu Week Thirty-One: Rewatching Detective Mode and Behind the Scenes

Harrison and EK are back for another week of watching 2019's Pokémon Detective Pikachu. This week, back by mild demand, the Poole brothers decide to take another look at the behind-the-scenes bonus content as well as Detective Mode to comment on aspects of the features they missed and to deepen their appreciation for the movie. Not a discovery per se, but they do find themselves expanding on what practical techniques the filmmakers used in the creation of the film, and it's way more than one might think on first thought. Harrison also shares some stories of his adventures filming the independent horror feature Hell Van to try to break down how certain stunts work while on set.

Detective Pikachu Week Thirty: Is It Ableist?

It's week 30 of 2026, and Harrison and EK Poole are back with another dissection of 2019's Pokémon Detective Pikachu. This week, they examine the incredibly muddy and confusing use of disability within the movie and how this might reveal the biases of the creative team and the audience. They attempt to answer exactly what Rob Letterman and Co. have to say on the topic and whether the movie expresses any inherently ableist views, which is a criticism that has been made of it in the past.

Detective Pikachu Week Twenty-Nine: Analyzing as a Sherlock Holmes Adaptation or Parody

After analyzing the 2019 masterpiece that is Pokémon Detective Pikachu as a loose adaptation of the 2018 video game, Harrison and Ethan are back to attempt to examine it as an even looser adaptation (or possibly parody) of the Arthur Conan Doyle series of Sherlock Holmes stories and novels. Is this as much of a stretch as you think it is? What inspiration from the original capped detective does Detective Pikachu take, and does it differ from the game to the film? All of this is revealed as the Poole Brothers are slowly starting to go mad from watching the same movie every week.

Detective Pikachu Week Twenty-Eight: Examining As an Adaptation

Harrison has spent the last week playing the 2018 video game Pokémon Detective Pikachu in order to share with his brother Ethan how the 2019 film works as an adaptation. It's very loose, but the things the filmmakers did choose to take are often quite confusing. They try to determine why certain choices are made and how those choices affect the end product.

Detective Pikachu Week Twenty-Seven: The Power of Us (Ethan's Birthday Special Part 2)

The Poole boys are back for another week of watching and analyzing 2019's Pokémon Detective Pikachu. This week, they decided to keep Ethan's birthday celebration going and let him pick another film in the franchise to watch alongside, and he chose the 2018 animated feature Pokémon: The Power of Us. It's a nice, slice-of-life romp with some thematic but also assorted plot relevance when compared to Detective Pikachu. It's a fun little getaway from the monotony of watching the same movie every week.

Detective Pikachu Week Twenty-Six: Lucario and the Mystery of Mew (Ethan's Birthday Special Part 1)

This week is Ethan's birthday so to celebrate the brothers decided to watch one of his other favorite Pokémon movies to dissect and compare and contrast to Detective Pikachu. He chose 2005's Lucario and the Mystery of Mew. Harrison and Ethan breakdown this movie thematically and structurally as well as speak about how well this movie holds up, even without the necessary nostalgia. They also do their best to constantly connect the two film together, sometimes in ways that make complete sense and sometimes in ways that only happen when you've watched the same movie 26 times so far this year.
