If you watched the Pokémon anime growing up, you're probably scarily familiar with the 'Who's That Pokémon?' game which would play in ad breaks. The aim of the game is simple: guess which Pokémon is represented by the silhouette on screen.
The folks over at IGN decided to play the game with the cast of the upcoming Detective Pikachu movie, giving us a great chance to see just how strong their Pokémon knowledge really is. Above, you'll see Ryan Reynolds (Pikachu), Kathryn Newton (Lucy Stevens), Marie Litoyo (Lucy, Japanese dub), Rob Letterman, (Director), Ryoma Takeuchi (Tim, Japanese dub), and Justice Smith (Tim Goodman) all taking part with varying degrees of success.
It's a shame they didn't use the opportunity to pull out the classic 'Jigglypuff seen from above' image, but we guess you can't have everything in life. Oh, and spoilers: they all know who Pikachu is.
If you're not too emotionally affected by Clefairy's apparent lack of popularity, make sure to leave a comment below letting us know if you plan to see the film this weekend.

I don't know if they can hype me up any more than they already have.
Also, no, no one should have to do that jigglypuff gag, haha.
Jigglypuff as seen from above... Classic.
Cute!!!!! Also, way to go to Justice Smith for getting Clefairy! All in all though, they were pretty easy. I'm great at the Who's The Pokemon silhouettes as long as it's the original 151, and a few Johto. But the moment we start getting in to gen 3 and above, it gets tricky for me (even though I've played all the mainline games). LOL. Given that Kanto was my origin games, they hold a special place in my heart!
Good job, Justice, for being the only one to guess Clefairy!
Jigglypuff as seen from above will never get old.
Haha, they only know the Pokemon that appear in the movie. Except for Justice, of course.
Kinda fitting that someone would confuse Clefairy and Gengar.
I Don't wanna look I might laugh to hard..
Lol, I remember that early episode. I have words for that Pokemon school instructor, but... none that I can say here.
At some point that may have been a reason why Pikachu became the mascot?
Hahahahahah "Jigglypuff seen from above" thanks for reminding me about that episode Nintendo Life!
