Pokemon and Hatsune Miku have teamed up for a new collaboration, and this has resulted in cool art showing off what the virtual idol would look like as different types of specialty Pokemon trainers! Hatsune Miku is likely the most well known virtual idol in the world, and has since inspired all kinds of other virtual stand-ins in entertainment in the years since. Hatsune Miku is no stranger to all sorts of wild collaborations as a result (the special collaboration with Domino’s Pizza in recent years, for one example), and now she’s taking on the Pokemon world!ย
The Pokemon Company and Hatsune Miku have announced the special Project Voltage collaboration which will result in special art and music featuring the idol alongside the Pokemon franchise. As part of this team up, Hatsune Miku has been reimagined as a Pokemon trainer for all 18 Pokemon types following the debut of her as a Psychic type trainer to kick things off. Now she’s become a Fire, Water, Grass, and Electric type trainer too thanks to the help of artists recruited for the project as well! Check them out below.
