As a result, Pokemon fans came up with an online petition to get Danny DeVito to voice the English version of Detective Pikachu instead.
"There are a number of us that feel as though Danny DeVito would be a prime fit for the voice acting role of the Detective Pikachu. We want to make this happen," as written in the same online petition website.
As of this article's writing, the petition now have 38,998 supporters, only a bit 11,002 away before reaching its 50,000 goal.
