Just yesterday, The Pokemon Company released a free eBook for Detective Pikachu Chapter 0: Eevee’s Request in Japan.

The same has happened in the Americas, with The Pokemon Company International publishing Detective Pikachu Episode 0: Eevee’s Case on Amazon Kindle Store and iBooks. Best of all – it’s in English.

The book can be downloaded for free for a limited time.

This is a prequel story written to commemorate the release of the Detective Pikachu video game for the Nintendo 3DS family of systems!

As a self-proclaimed great detective, Pikachu can somehow understand what people are saying. His only wish is to meet someone who can understand him in the same way.

One day, an Eevee comes to the great Detective Pikachu and asks him to find the culprit who messed up the yard at its home!
