It's been a good quarter-century of training, catching, and battling for Pokémon trainers all over the world, and now it's time to take things to the next level. With pop icon Katy Perry at the forefront, the Pokémon Company will be holding a yearlong celebration with music collaborations, special collectibles, and nostalgic trips to commemorate the game's legacy and latest milestone.

“Pokémon has been a constant in my life from playing the original video games on my Game Boy, to trading Pokémon TCG cards at lunch, to the adventures of catching Pokémon on the street with Pokémon GO," Perry shares in a statement.

"It is an honor to be chosen to help celebrate a franchise that has given me so much joy in the last 25 years, and to be able to watch it evolve in the ways it’s provided that kind of electric joy for the kids in my life and around the world," the 'Not the End of the World' singer adds.

Pokémon teamed up with Universal Music Group and some of the biggest names and up-and-comers in the scene to soundtrack P25 Music, its official global music celebration. Further details for the star-studded event have yet to be announced.

“We are honored to celebrate the 25^th anniversary of Pokémon and the significant cultural impact this beloved franchise continues to have around the world," LJ Gutierrez, general manager UMGB says in a statement. "Working together, we have developed dynamic year-round programming involving artists from across UMG’s labels — because what better way to create a global celebration than through the power of music."
