movie have arrived and, at first glance, this might not be the live-action Pokemon movie you were expecting. Instead of a colorful universe filled with massive battles against strange-looking creatures, this film looks to be set in a world similar to our own.

The photos come from a Twitter user who stumbled upon the Ryme City police department set in London. According to the images, Ryme City is a place in which humans and Pokemon coexist. While the plot of the movie is unclear at this point, what's known is that

There is no information on who the movie's villain will be. However, several missing posters are seen at the Ryme City Police Plaza set, including those looking for Pokemon such as Machoke, Graveler, and Pancham. Outside of the creatures adorning the posters, though, the world looks very realistic.

Granted, this is a very small look at what Detective Pikachu is building. Still, it's a far cry from what previous Pokemon games and animated movies have looked like. That's not necessarily a bad thing, though. After all, there might be nothing more entertaining and absurd than seeing Pikachu solve crimes in a realistic world.

Detective Pikachu is based on a Japanese video game of the same name, in which the popular Pokemon is a master detective in the vein of Sherlock Holmes. Joining Reynolds in the film are
