In today’s Daily Fix:
The new Pokémon Legends: ZA is going viral in Japan, but not for the reason you might think. A quick mention by an NPC about Pikachu having a bowel movement started trending on social media, and although it was changed for the North American release, it’s still one of the few canon mentions of the Pokémon doing normal real-world things like going to the bathroom. In other news, Sony is moving forward with its Horizon: Zero Dawn live-action film. Sony is now looking for a director and the studio hopes to begin shooting sometime next year. In related news, Sony files injunction against Tencent over alleged Horizon clone, Light of Motiram. That game has been accused by gamers and Sony of copying Horizon: Zero Dawn. Motiram is scheduled to release sometime in 2027.
