Once you've flown a couple of times, airline safety videos are usually boring enough to easily ignore (although you really shouldn't). But a video featuring Pikachu and several other Pokemon teaching you proper airplane safety rules? Now that's an attention-grabber. All Nippon Airways and The Pokemon Company have teamed up to instruct passengers how to stay safe on aircraft, and the result is an adorable collaboration you'll want to watch.
The video above has some pretty great cameos from various Pokemon, like Farfetch'd's tiny leek stick luggage taking up far too much space in the overhead compartment, Pikachu observing the seatbelt rule, and a Jigglypuff looking like it's ready to assault a vaper. This is all the information you'd typically expect from an airline video and staff before taking off, but the blend of live-action actors and Pokemon makes it both cute and educational. The video will be played aboard the special Pokemon Air Adventures aircraft from the ANA fleet, which are two airplanes decorated with Pikachu and Eevee designs.
ANA isn't the only airline to adopt a more-interesting approach to teaching passengers the rules of the air, as Air New Zealand has several cool videos with a Middle-earth influence. Back on solid ground, Pokemon fans can look forward to the release of Pokemon Legends Z-A in 2025. While only a few details on the game have been shared so far, it looks like players will be traveling to Lumiose City in Kalos from Pokemon X and Y when the game is eventually released.
