There's just over a month to go until this year's Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade gets underway, and The Pokémon Company has confirmed that it'll be in attendance with its very own balloon.
This year's event, which will once again take place in New York City, will be the 95th edition of the annual parade. While Pikachu has appeared as a balloon on several occasions, even making it as one of the lead stars on 2014's event poster, this year's Pokémon balloon will feature two fan-favourite characters.
That's right, Eevee will be joining Pikachu for the 2021 show, with the pair flying through the sky on a Poké Ball-shaped sledge. Magical.
The 2021 lineup includes the likes of Star Wars' Grogu, Sonic the Hedgehog, Spongebob Squarepants, and even Dragon Ball's Goku.
Will you be tuning in to this year's event on November 25th? Will you be attending in New York? Let us know with a comment.

Hey, this is cool! Glad to see Eevee at the parade.
I know Brits don’t understand weird American traditions but it’s not MACY’S DAY 😂😂😂
@bluesdance that’s actually common. I have only heard it called the “Macy’s Day Parade”. Verbally of course, and a gaming publication is more colloquial than not. There’s only one…everybody knows when it is.
nice of Pikachu to share the spotlight this year
So does anyone know where I could watch it on fire tv stick? Do I need a separate app or could I find it on YouTube or something?
@bluesdance does have a point @ryancraddock Google has every search result except Nintendo Life calling it what it is: "The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade". 🤷♂️
PS: For future reference it's "Dick Clark's New Years Rockin' Eve with Ryan Seacrest" and not "Dick Clark's Rockin' Ryan Seacrest". 😂
@BirdBoy16 I think I've watched it on the NBC app. Depending on where you live Sling TV may have a free trial, blue has Fox and NBC in some markets.

Is Macy's even open anymore? So many wonderful American traditions fading away
@rjejr I did know about the NBC app actually, but I might look into the other options
"with the pair flying through the sky on a Poké Ball-shaped sledge"
That is not a sledge.
Hey Hallmark. This, but in Christmas ornament form please.
Eevee is sitting there like “if we crash, the mouse goes first.”
Rip the little snowman Pikachu, he must have melted 🥺
@greehnery Yes!!! So dang cute!
