- Detective Pikachu: [singing while sobbing] I wanna be the very best, like no one ever was. To catch them is my real test, to train them is my cause.
- Lucy Stevens: Down by the docks. Rough part of town, not the sorta place you wanna visit alone at night.
- Tim Goodman: [trying to impress her] Well, I'm actually pretty good at being alone at night.
- Detective Pikachu: Should I talk about the fact that your childhood bed is a Pikachu bed?
- Tim Goodman: It's a coincidence.
- Detective Pikachu: I've never been so flattered and creeped out at the same time.
- Detective Pikachu: Have you ever talked to a woman before?
- Tim Goodman: I've talked to women before!
- Detective Pikachu: When was that, in the the birth canal?
- Detective Pikachu: Maybe she can tell us about the long-term psychological effects of being strapped to a baby seat... next to a bomb!
- Psyduck: Psyduck!
- Detective Pikachu: [from trailer]
- [Tim has a stapler in his hand, and he doesn't know Pikachu can talk]
- Detective Pikachu: Oh, geez.
- [climbing up the top of the drawers]
- Detective Pikachu: Here we go. I know you can't understand me; but put down the stapler, or *I* will electrocute *you*!
- [Tim drops the stapler in shock]
- Detective Pikachu: [to Psyduck, trying to rile him up] I hated rubbing your feet! I can never forgive my hands for what they've done!
- Detective Pikachu: Harry faked his own death... or someone else faked Harry's death... or Harry faked someone else's death. Wait, that last one doesn't work, does it?
- Detective Pikachu: I can't help but notice your childhood bed is a Pikachu bed.
- Tim Goodman: It's a coincidence.
- Detective Pikachu: I'm sorry, what? I couldn't hear you. I've never been so flattered and creeped out at the same time. Are you gonna turn me into a lampshade?
- Tim Goodman: I might!
- Detective Pikachu: [from trailer] They try to talk to me all the time, but all they hear is "Pika-pika!"
- Tim Goodman: [to a person's girlfriend, asking if she can understand Pikachu speaking] You can hear him... right?
- Pikachu: [in his Pokemon voice] Pika-pika!
- Girlfriend: [to Pikachu] Yeah, pika-pika-pika! He's adorable!
- Detective Pikachu: [to the girlfriend] YOU'RE adorable!
- [pause, knowing that only Tim can understand him]
- Detective Pikachu: They can't understand me, kid.
- Tim Goodman: [exasperated, knowing that no one can understand Pikachu] Can no one else hear him?
- Detective Pikachu: [holds his finger out to Tim] Smell my finger.
- Tim Goodman: I will never smell your finger.
- Detective Pikachu: Coward.
- Tim Goodman: I don't need a Pokémon, period,
- Detective Pikachu: Then what about a world-class detective? Because if you wanna find your pops, I'm your best bet. We're gonna do this, you and me.
- Howard Clifford: The transfer worked. My body is in the chair, but my mind is in Mewtwo.
- Tim Goodman: Howard?
- Howard Clifford: Well done Tim, you and Harry's Pikachu led me straight to Mewtwo.
- Tim Goodman: Mewtwo didn't cause the crash.
- Howard Clifford: All your father had to do was take the money and walk away, But he started asking questions. I had to stop him.
- Tim Goodman: You tried to kill him!
- Howard Clifford: I had no choice! He tracked the R* to the battles, then traced it back to Dr. Laurant, and then he and his Pikachu helped Mewtwo escape!
- Detective Pikachu: [when Tim finds him in his apartment] Aw, jeez. Here we go
- [Climbs on a dresser]
- Detective Pikachu: [Slowly] I know you can't understand me, but put down the stapler or I will electrocute you.
- Tim Goodman: [Drops stapler]
- Tim Goodman: I gotta jump for it!
- Detective Pikachu: That's a great fifth option. Let's work on the first four.
- Detective Pikachu: [Tim is being chased onto the roof of his dad's apartment by crazed Pokemon, who pull off most of his clothes. He's lost his shoes, dress shirt, and belt to them, leaving him in his undershirt, pants, and socks] They seem to be attracted to your increasing nudeness!
- Detective Pikachu: [They reach the garbage chute] Alright, we'll jumping down here!
- Tim Goodman: No! No way! I'm not going in the trash chute!
- Detective Pikachu: Good call, let me know how it goes with the super crazy Pokemon! You died a hero! Whoo!
- [He jumps down the chute. Tim follows after when the crazed Pokemon advance on him, losing his pants to them the moment he enters the chute]
- Detective Pikachu: [Tim has just emerged from the chute into a dumpster] Way to stick the landing, kid!
- Tim Goodman: Leave me alone!
- Detective Pikachu: [Tim runs out into the street to warn people of the crazed Pokemon, only dressed in his undershirt, boxers, and socks] I think pants are going to do you a lot of good right now. I pictured you as a bit of a briefs guy, but those are nice. Me? I don't wear underwear, I'm not modest.
- [Tim retrieves his pants from two crazed Pokemon who are walking in them; they are the only article of clothing he's seen getting back]
