The official Pokémon movie blog has updated. We have added a section collecting every single blog entry for easy browsing. Translations of the new entry follows:
The night view of Odaiba lights up with the world of the Pokémon movie!
This is a status report from the "Odaiba Illumination "YAKEI" DECKS 20th Anniversary Pokémon ver. Light Show"!
The illumination show "Odaiba Illumination "YAKEI"" operates all year round, which is unusual even on a national level!
It spans a total of 200 meters!
As night gradually falls, anticipation for the light show rises!
"Oha Suta" Pokémon Club Leader Yamamoto from Robert and Club Member Maru, as well as Pikachu, are there as special guests!
Volcanion also gets called in, as they get asked about the movie's highlights!
While Volcanion is stubborn in its views and doesn't easily trust humans, it's also amazingly cool!
It can use this awesome move called "Steam Eruption", and even in the movie this move ends up being the key to everything... once you've seen the entire movie, you'll realize just how cool Volcanion is!!
Maru hasn't seen the movie yet, and is visibly somewhat envious when she hears Club Leader Yamamoto talk so passionately about it!
Maru is then asked what she looks forward to in the movie...
I want to watch the battle portions of it so bad!
They fight the Mega Evolution Army in the movie, don't they!? I'm so impatient about getting to watch that!
When these two start talking about the movie, they just won't stop!
...however, the light show is about to begin!
They need "Electricity" for the light, so the two of them press the lighting button together with the Electric type Pikachu!
5, 4, 3, 2, 1...
As the illumination gets turned on, lights flash in tune with "Throw Your Voice in the Mailbox", the theme song to "Volcanion and the Ingenious Magearna"!
This theme song sung by YUKI is another great Pokémon movie theme song!
"When I watched the movie, I was brought to tears when this theme song was playing",
Yamamoto said.
In the dome illumination "ILLUSION DOME", the Pokémon move around and react with cries and movements when touched!
The children look like they're having a lot of fun!
The "Glittering Pokémon Summer Vacation Festival" runs until Wednesday August 31st!
Go visit Odaiba DECKS Tokyo during your summer vacation!
