The minute-long video can only be described as a delightful choreography of ultra-realistic 3D effects. It starts with the good old Pikachu appearing next to the Pokémon Go logo. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2HQDmvy5TcQ

This same tropical place was flooded, at intervals, with fire, ice or water flowing from the frame.
