The film was actually going to be mostly inspired by the main games and have Pokémon trainers as the main characters, but The Pokémon Company wanted to center the film entirely on Pikachu in order to both make it more marketable and to see if audiences were actually interested in seeing a live-action Pokémon movie before doing anything else. Max Landis (of Chronicle fame) pitched a screenplay where a boy named Rednote , the son of a masterful Pokémon trainer, begins to feel hostility to Pokémon after his mother had a falling out with her team of trainers, called Team Rocket (no relation to the gang from the games and anime). Landis left the production after Legendary and The Pokémon Company went the Detective Pikachu route.
