We go over these numbers and viewership numbers for streaming that weekend. James Turner returns to Pokémon after leaving Game Freak to make his own game. Pikachu visits Tim Cook and this begs the question of "does this matter?" Google Health and Pokémon Sleep teams up. VIZ Media is putting out all 24 Pokémon movies on Blu-ray for $400 this year.
