Bet you didn't know Pikachu had moves like these.

On Friday morning, 10 yellow dancers performed in the first Pikachu parade brought here by the Japanese Pokémon company.

Synchronised Pikachu dancers perform regularly at various locations in Japan, but this outing in Singapore is rare, and debuted to a large crowd of screaming kids and adults.

At Terminal 2, there are three huge Snorlax plush figurines snoozing in a garden, and airport staff have planted 26 Pokémon in various locations around the airport for visitors to find and claim merchandise from the popular Japanese franchise.
