Video: Yaffle’s “Reconnect” Music Video Released To Celebrate Pokémon’s 25th Anniversary

A new music video was premiered today, February 25th, as part of Pokémon’s ongoing 25th anniversary celebrations. The song itself, titled “Reconnect”, is by music producer Yaffle with featuring vocals from Daichi Yamamoto and AAAMYYY, and was revealed back in September 2021 as a track on the Pokémon 25 album.

Other Pokémon 25 tracks to get their own music video include Katy Perry’s “Electric”, which features a time-travelling Pikachu, and Post Malone’s cover of “Only Wanna Be With You”, which has Posty taking a tour around a Pokémon-filled world.

This music video is set in what looks like a rural konbini, a Japanese convenience store, and heavily features nostalgic elements, from the Game Boys at the beginning to the candy in the shop. Dancing Pikachu, Snorlax, Squirtle, Charmander, Cubone, and Clefairy take up part of the video, with lyrics weaving in references to Rare Candy, HP, and body slamming depression.
