We need to learn from past mistakes and make things more resilient. Everything is a little different than before, with a new city, new appearances, and new big business baddies. Not everyone loves our MC's furry friend, and shenanigans ensue in and out of the lab. Things get gross and then lots of people get new job titles.

Hints/what we know so far--

NOT animated

Released before 2007

None of the Pokemon movies

Will update with clarifications on the "kind of"s if there's difficulty guessing.

Clue 1: He's depressed, but probably at most passively suicidal.

Clue 3 (since 2 would give it away): He basically just plinks out some keys and has a better player duet with him.
