Pokémon: Detective Pikachu debuted in theatres back in May 2019. The first live-action Pokémon movie went on to become the highest-grossing video game movie of all time. However, it recently lost that title to the live-action Sonic the Hedgehog movie. Regardless, it's still regarded relatively highly by Pokémon fans.
If you're one of them, you can now watch Pokémon: Detective Pikachu for free online. How, you ask? With Amazon Prime Video. Amazon have come to an agreement with Warner Bros. which has brought a plethora of movies and TV shows (from HBO) to the streaming service (via Toonado).
Pokémon: Detective Pikachu is just one of many that are now available to stream for free. All you require is an Amazon account and to be situated in the United States. The other movies and TV shows that are currently available to watch online for free include: The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part, Smallfoot, Big Little Lies (2 Seasons), Silicon Valley (6 Seasons), and more.
This decision was likely made as many are currently in quarantine due to the Coronavirus pandemic. Thankfully, this will provide those with something to do and enjoy for a little while. Simply head over to Amazon Prime Video now and you should be off to the races. Below you can check out both the first 10 minutes of Pokémon: Detective Pikachu as well as the movie's trailer.
