Pokémon 25th Anniversary Album Collaboration

We’ve already talked about the Pokémon franchise celebrating it’s 25th anniversary this year. Starting with different brand collaborations the company furthermore announced a music album collaboration back in February.

It all started with Post Malone’s virtual concert experience of “Only wanna be with you”!

At the end of the video the company teases a whole 25th anniversary Pokémon collaborations album. It supposedly features the artists Post Malone, Katy Perry and J Balvin among “many more”. The album release is in autumn.

This week Katy Perry’s contribution to the collaboration aired on Youtube. The song “Electric” tells the story of Katy and her Pikachu, looking back to when she was still an aspiring musician and her Pokémon was still a Pichu. Watch it here!

So far J Balvin is the only other artist that has been revealed. The release date of the reggaeton star’s MV is still a secret though. Concerning the other artists, the only information we have is that they are part of the Universal Music Group and Capitol Records.
