    It seems like due to how much positive spotlight the Detective Pikachu movie is getting Legendary has trippled down on there Pokemon movies.



    Despite (or perhaps because of) its bizarre concept, Detective Pikachu is picking up some great word of mouth in advance of its May 10th release. Legendary clearly thinks they’ve got a sizable hit on their hands as well, as we now have word that two new movies are in development for the franchise.
    The first has been widely reported to be a spinoff about powerful psychic Mewtwo (this appears to be a separate project from Mewtwo Strikes Back Evolution, the CGI remake of the first Pokémon film). And the second, according to one of our trusted sources, is an adaptation of the games that launched the franchise: Pokémon Red and Pokémon Blue.
    First released in Japan in 1996 and in the US in 1998, these Gameboy titles introduced the world to ‘Pocket Monsters,’ or Pokémon, and featured the original iconic 151. They were an enormous hit and eventually became the sixth best-selling games of all-time. Though they didn’t have a particularly complex plot – they simply told the tale of a young Pokémon trainer named Red out to become a Pokemon Master and catch ’em all –  Legendary plans to flesh things out, using a combination of live-action and CGI to tell the story of Red and his battles across the various Pokémon gyms in the Kanto region.

    You think they would wait and see how the movie would do at the box office before working on more movies. On the other hand almost anything Pokemon prints money so I can't blame them for wanting some easy money.
