So like Detective Pikachu basically does this, but it does so in a way that is palatable to the Pokemon fanbase-- but it's a very difficult thing to do in general I think. You have to write something that's not only high quality but also captures the feel of the original while not actually being the original-- otherwise, as Leon said it's easier to just make a completely fresh movie at that point because you've got a net negative by working with the IP.
I think what makes Detective Pikachu work so well is that even that it completely changes things like story, tone, and literally having Pikachu talk and make jokes, it really captures the feeling of living in a world with Pokemon. That was my favorite thing about it, and the favorite aspect for a lot of others. The setting and world building was dead on.
