YOKOHAMA (REUTERS) – More than 100 Pikachus danced and paraded in the Japanese port city of Yokohama on Monday (Aug 14) , part of a festival celebrating the mobile phone game Pokemon Go.
“When a lot of Pikachus appeared, they were so cute I couldn’t handle it, ” said Ken Kuno, 36, after watching the parade of chubby yellow characters.
The game requires players to “catch” virtual creatures, one of the best-known of which is the mouse-like Pikachu, by going to real-world locations where the game places them.
