Sebastian (Detective Pikachu)

Sebastian is a side character from Detective Pikachu (movie). He is a Pokémon trainer who hosts an illegal Pokémon battle ring in Ryme City.

History

At some point prior to the events of the movie, Sebastian was interrogated by Harry Goodman and his Pikachu while searching for the source of the R chemical, which led to a battle during which Pikachu's electric shocks partially tore Sebastian's prized jacket and scarred his Charizard. Later on, Tim Goodman and Pikachu encountered Sebastian while searching for clues relating to Harry's disappearance, but Sebastian prompted them for a rematch. They agreed, but Sebastian drugged his Charizard with R, causing it to try and violently attack Pikachu. It was stopped by Tim Goodman, who stepped on its tail. Sebastian stepped into the ring to try and stop him, but Tim tackled him to the ground to save him from Charizard's rampage. This released the large amounts of R stored in Sebastian's jacket, which sent all the Pokémon in the stadium to go into a frenzy. Sebastian admitted to Tim that he had received the R from Dr. Ann Laurent, then escaped amid the chaos.
