The Pokémon will be staying up late this year so you can bask in their adorableness while staying out of the scorching sun.
Pikachu Outbreak
With human faces staring out of their mouths, overly long legs, and dead eyes, these Pikachus aren’t exactly cute.
In previous years, the famous and adorable Pokémon went to sleep when the sun went down, but this time they’re staying up late to party!
Eevees appears en masse at the annual Pikachu Outbreak in Yokohama to grab their share of the Pokémon spotlight.
Because the only thing better than seeing 1,500-plus Pikachus is seeing a squad of Eevees at the same time.
Special after-dark Pokémon parade means fans will want to stick around all day to see the 1,500-plus Pikachus.
The sheer number of people undoubtedly brought a lot of revenue to the area, but the chaos from hosting such a large crowd also took its toll on area residents and police.
Sprint wants to send you and three of your friends to Yokohama for the Pikachu Outbreak Festival in August!
Fans are keeping their fingers crossed about this summer’s “Not Just Pikachu Pikachu Outbreak” event.
