Pikachu is a star in new music video from The Pokémon Company

Whether it’s releases of new games like Pokémon Legends: Arceus, or quirky collaborations with artists like Katy Perry, The Pokémon Company has had no shortage of content for fans to celebrate its 25th anniversary. The company still releases new content. On Friday, Pokémon’s official Japanese YouTube channel shared a new song and music video called, “Reconnect” from producer Yaffle. In it, Pikachu dances his little heart out in a candy shop — and yes it’s as great as it sounds.

The song, called “Reconnect,” features moody hiphop verses over bubbling pop beats. It was produced by Yaffle and features Daichi Yamamoto, AAAMYYY and other artists. The video shows Pikachu dancing in a dark bodega setting, where walls are covered with candy. It’s like if you turn a candy shop into a club, and then put Pikachu and friends in it.

Pikachu seems perfectly at home in the sweets. In the video, Pikachu does a dance that looks like it was meant to inspire a trend on TikTok, since it’s so easy to follow and dance along. Pikachu is a star and teases his audience at times with a side-eye. You can expect a vibrant atmosphere, streetwear that is snazzy, an enormous Snorlax with a head-bobbing beat and lots of candy. It looks like a fun time — even if it’s a little crowded.

The Pokémon Company has previously released music videos featuring prominent artists like Katy PerryAnd J Balvin to celebrate the special anniversary, in addition to releasing multiple new games in the past six months, Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl Pokémon Legends: Arceus. If you want even more Pokémon, well there’s also going to be a Pokémon Presents livestream on Feb. 27 with new announcements form the company.
