While Thunder Shock and Thunderbolt are among Pikachu's (Ryan Reynolds) more widely known moves, it looks like Warner Bros.' upcoming Pokémon: Detective Pikachu will reveal another of his hidden talents: the foot massage. 

In the most recent extended TV spot, there's a fun little scene between the titular detective and Lucy's (Kathryn Newton) Psyduck, which ends in hilarious fashion as the water Pokémon requests a foot massage from the electric fan-favorite. 

That's not the only new footage, as we also get to see more of Pikachu dealing with his caffeine addiction, battling Charizard, riding a Pidgeot, watching a Blastoise in battle, and discussing his lack of modesty with his new friend/partner Tim (Justice Smith).

The story begins when ace private eye Harry Goodman goes mysteriously missing, prompting his 21-year-old son Tim (Justice Smith) to find out what happened. Aiding in the investigation is Harry’s former Pokémon partner, Detective Pikachu (Ryan Reynolds): a hilariously wise-cracking, adorable super-sleuth who is a puzzlement even to himself. Finding that they are uniquely equipped to communicate with one another, Tim and Pikachu join forces on a thrilling adventure to unravel the tangled mystery. Chasing clues together through the neon-lit streets of Ryme City—a sprawling, modern metropolis where humans and Pokémon live side by side in a hyper-realistic live-action world—they encounter a diverse cast of Pokémon characters and uncover a shocking plot that could destroy this peaceful co-existence and threaten the whole Pokémon universe.

I have a screening for this on the 6th. Debating if I'll go or not. I'm intrigued by this movie but the Ryan Reynolds voice as Pikachu is weird

@Spidey91 - lol higher profile movies take a little more to get in. Like you have to be there extra early since it's first come first served and the uncertainty is a headache.
