Similar to earlier outbreaks in 2014 and 2015, the festivities will include 1000 costumed Pikachu performers participating in dances, parades, and stage-shows.
Since this year’s outbreak is water-themed, there will also be a new attraction in the form of a “Soaking Wet Splash Show”.
Another year, another mass outbreak of Electric Type Pokémon: the “Pikachu Outbreak” is once again returning to besiege Yokohama in August of 2016, and this time (inexplicably) the annual celebrations will include a water theme.
