Just Who is Detective Pikachu? A Fan Theory

[Chakramaster]

OH MY GOSH YOU MENTIONED DETECTIVE CONAN AND CASE CLOSED!! *faints*

Anyway, it sounds like a pretty interesting theory. I'll be expecting to hear more soon.

Haha, well funny story. I used to love waking up back in 2005 and waking up to watch Case Closed (as I once knew it). It's what started my journey into the "mystery" genre. Today, I love it! It gets my mind going and I love being able to catch things before the characters even mention certain things now. Today, I'm all caught up on Detective Conan (anime movies and all along with the manga) and watched all the Sherlock movies (and read some small parts of the actual books only so far). So things like this only get me really excited. Especially when it combines mystery/Detective(s) and my favorite Pokemon (seriously the facts I mentioned were too obvious for me lol).

Ah, silly humans. Always getting themselves turned into Pokémon. First it started with Bill and his silly teleporter machine and then all this started to happen.

Well there's theories on that as well. Such as how Bill has worked on a device to do that now. Even in X and Y we see dialogue where people mention a "device that can transform people into Pokemon." So the idea can't be that far off from things they have in the works.

I enjoyed reading this article, thanks @Chakramaster! I think your theories make sense! The fact that Pikachu likes so many human things definitely points to it having been human at one point. I hope this gets an international release!

I hope it does....I kinda threw this together (in no professional way at all lol) so if it at least makes sense that's good. Thanks for the offer to get this theory out there though! Whether it turns out to be true or not it's all part of the fun of speculation. There's too many things the Pikachu in this video shows as "humanistic" characteristics. Especially when you look at it more psychologically (like I mentioned a while back with a PMD fact).
