Pikachu Flies for Thanksgiving!

[MC Elesa]

This Pikachu balloon is fairly new. So I wouldn't think they'd wanna stash this one that soon, but you never know. Personally I think if they are going for a new balloon it would be in 2021 for the 25th Pokémon Anniversary. Pikachu is #25 after all.

Still either way I'm always super excited to see Pikachu take flight again! I'm still so glad I got to see it in all it's glory the year before rather than they hear the ears were deflated.

I did consider that when writing the article. 25th anniversary is a big milestone and maybe a new balloon can be used to celebrate. Though, I went with the standpoint of the parade.

One day I would love to see this balloon in person. Though, that would mean a big plane ticket.

Part of me wonders if this is what inspired Dynamaxing!

In person, I've seen the very first one and the one where the cheeks flashed. Crazy amazing stuff! Hopefully the weather behaves and it's Let's Go, Pikachu!

I was always amazed by the light up cheeks. Though, it was never really seen that well on TV.
