Trivia

• This collaboration between Pokémon and Hatsune Miku was announced on her birthday, August 31.
• Hatsune Miku had a previous collaboration with Pokémon in 2020. Snow Miku x Alolan Vulpix was a collaboration with Pokémon Local Acts as a partnership of Hokkaido's Sapporo Snow Festival.
• Each Pokémon that is paired with Hatsune Miku has themes associated with Miku, namely music, singing, software (in Rotom and Miraidon's case), or leeks (in Sirfetch'd's case). Miraidon may additionally be a reference to the Hatsune Miku: Project Mirai series of rhythm games, as well as the meaning of Hatsune Miku's name, "the first sound from the future".
