Katy Perry will be among the protagonists of the celebratory event dedicated to Pokémon

The Pokémon Company International intends to celebrate i 25 years of the Pokémon franchise with a stellar collaboration, just announced, with the pop singer Katy Perry. The event called P25 Music will see Perry, along with other emerging artists, sing the famous "gotta cacth em 'all" (or "Pokémon Theme", if you prefer).

To celebrate 25 years of Pokémon the company is partnering with Universal Music Group for Brands to help make the 25th anniversary party a simply unforgettable event. This will be the biggest event to date ever dedicated to the franchise and will include some of the biggest names in music. Katy Perry's role in the celebratory event will extend beyond her headlining role as well, and she'll also play the role of premier collaborator throughout the year (sort of a woman image, if you like).

Same Perry stated in this regard:

Pokémon have been a constant in my life, from playing original video games on my Game Boy to trading Pokémon TCG cards at lunch to adventures of catching Pokémon on the street with Pokémon Go. I also visited the Pokémon Café in Japan during the tour! It is an honor to be chosen to help celebrate a franchise that has given me so much joy over the past 25 years, and to be able to see it evolve in the way it has provided that kind of electric joy for the kids in my life and in everything. the world.

Colin Palmer, vice president of marketing for The Pokémon Company International, said:

In Katy Perry, we see a spirit akin to Pokémon, whose world is bright, fun, and uplifting. Katy is a wonderful ambassador helping us celebrate 25 years of Pokémon, and we can't wait for music fans around the world to experience the exciting collaborations we have planned.

More details on the event will be revealed within the next few months of 2021. For Pokémon fans, before saying goodbye, let's remember that after Snorlax, Gengar's pillow was presented to sleep anywhere.
