Katy Perry, J Balvin and another surprise artist will each release a song inspired by the Pokémon franchise, along with a music video and merchandise collection.
J Balvin commented on taking part in the project in a statement released on Saturday: “Pokémon is pulling out all the stops for P25 Music, and I’m thrilled to join the program as one of its premier collaborators,” he said. “I’m looking forward to adding my own unique flavor to this huge Pokémon party and adding more good vibes to the celebration.”
Pokémon 25: The Album, part of this year’s P25 Music program for Pokémon’s 25th anniversary, will be released by UMG’s Capitol Records.
Saturday night’s concert can be watched on-demand on the official Pokémon YouTube channel.
