While the video game of Detective Pikachu might not have the likes of Ryan Reynolds voicing the titular Pikachu, the recently released 3DS title does have a cast worth boasting about. For instance, did you know Karen Straussman, aka the voice of Fire Emblem’s Anna, is credited with a role? Not only that, but so is is Christina Vee, voice of Shantae?
