The video referenced in the above quote can be watched right here.

The Pokémon GO YouTube is worth exploring, as they have cataloged some of the game's music used in the past. In particular, the Night Theme (Lyrical Version), which can be listed to here, is worth checking out as it has immortalized the music that ran in the game during and for a short while after GO Fest 2021.
