Pokémon are projected one after another in time with music. Every time a Pokémon floated in the night sky of Yokohama, there was a cheer. I am sorry that it is difficult to convey in the pictures, but all of the projections have a sense of movement and three-dimensionality that gives them an excellent sense of realism!
