Question is will this be an up-port of the 3ds game or a sequel?

The Pokemon twitter says "the details of this game are still a mystery," so expect a new project. Unless they're really keeping that remake under wraps.
The article says "The currently untitled Detective Pikachu game for Nintendo Switch will follow up the story to 3DS game," so there's our answer.
I hope Pikachu has FUR in it

Oh man, more Pokémon games on switch that isn’t that Pokémon Go like game and the random F2P one is a definite plus for me. I can’t wait!

I liked the 3DS game and the movie was pretty good too. I'm down.

3DS game was amazing! I'm happy the spinoff found a lot of success, both as a game and as a movie.
