You may not have ever thought about visiting Kagoshima City before, but we bet you will after seeing this video!
With sakura in bloom, a trio of dancing Pokémon give us a moment of beauty, something to smile about, and a Japanese language lesson.
To make matters stranger, the video is part of a promotional tie-in with a popular candy company designed to cheer on a certain group of students.

Dance along with the adorable Pocket Monster, or stay in your seat and sing along with the equally cute lyrics.
The video is an homage to the beautiful old Japanese city and a reflection of their love for Japanese culture and aesthetics.
