The official Detective Pikachu movie website has updated. Translations follow:


Add the hash tags "#DetectivePikachu (#名探偵ピカチュウ)" and "#ElectricShockChu (#感電チュウ)" to photos taken at the event sites on Twitter or Instagram! If you show the SNS post to a staff member at the venue, you will receive a commemorative movie sticker!


At the PACHI PACHI BOOTH, you can take pictures that makes it look like you're being electrocuted by Pikachu! But that's not all! You'll also be able to see what it's like to be in the world of the Detective Pikachu movie!

Pikachu Kanden Studio:

There are three different photo booths: the Pachi Pachi Booth, the Mofu mofu Booth and the Gira gira Booth.


Pachi Pachi Booth: By using a special device to generate static electricity, like Pikachu's electricity, you can take a photo with your hair standing up as if you got an electric shock!

Mofu mofu Booth: The whole booth is the same yellow colour as Pikachu. The sofa and other furniture is made of soft, comfortable fluffy materials that feel excellent to the touch! You can take a cute photo with Pikachu!

Gira gira Booth: A reproduction of Ryme City, where people and Pokémon coexist and is the setting for the movie. There are Neon signs just like the ones that appear in the movie so you can take pictures like you are at Ryme City!
