Details about the Pocket Monsters Rayquaza Rising chapter ending Pikkaan! have been announced and Rina Matsuda & Hikaru Morita from Sakurazaka46 have been revealed as the singers. A digital download will be available starting on October 18th, 2024,

Press Release - October 16th, 2024

It has been announced that Rina Matsuda and Hikaru Morita from Sakurazaka46 sing "Pikkaan!", the ending theme for the new chapter "Rayquaza Rising" of the TV Tokyo Network anime Pocket Monsters (airs on the TV Tokyo Network every Friday at 6:55pm, officially abbreviated "Anipoke").

It was also announced to great fanfare that the song is produced by Giga & TeddyLoid, who also produced "Let me battle", the ending theme for the previous chapter, while the lyrics are contributed by popular creator DECO*27, who, like Giga, has also created original compositions for the Pokémon feat. Hatsune Miku Project Voltage, aka PokéMiku.

The CD jacket was also unveiled for the first time. It's done by Kei Mochizuki, who also participated in the PokéMiku project's illustrations and music videos, and truly captures the song's cheerful and catchy vibes.



A comment from Rina Matsuda:
Giga-san and TeddyLoid-san's song Pikkaan! is the perfect mix of a memorable earworm of a melody and lyrics jam-packed with Pokémon's greatness, which made it really fun to sing. This song is actually what made me a Pokémon fan! I'm sure all our super supportive fans will be happy with it as well. The song is sprinkled with little things Pocket Monsters fans will enjoy as well, so I hope you'll discover those as you sing it!

A comment from Hikaru Morita:
I've always been a big fan of Pokémon, but even though I've been professionally involved with the franchise in a number of ways already, I never thought the day would come where I'd get to sing an ending theme for the Pokémon anime! It feels like a dream come true, and made me extremely happy. We paid a lot of attention to the little details while recording this song to ensure that both Sakurazaka46 fans and Pocket Monsters fans would enjoy the result. I think we managed to create an ending theme that can be enjoyed even after the anime is over, so I hope you'll listen to it a lot and love it a lot.


A comment from Giga:
Pikkaan! I really love both the name and the song itself! Pikkaan! Pikkaan! Pikkaan! Pikkaan! Pikkaan! Pikkaan! Pikkaan! Pikkaan! Pikkaan! Pikkaan!!!!

A comment from Teddyloid:
Pikkaan! was created by the best there is. It's a song that expresses the fun of the show through music and will definitely cheer you up as you listen to it. Please look forward to it!


A comment from DECO*27:
Pikaan! My name is DECO*27, and I'm Kanto-born and Jouto-bred. When I wrote these lyrics, I poured my hope for you all to have fun and challenging adventures into them! So come on, go adventure with a Hop Step Get!!

A comment from Kei Mochizuki:
I gave it my absolute best when I drew the CD jacket illustration so that I'd be able to visualize the ultimate song Pikkaan! I hope I managed to create a CD jacket filled with my love for the Pokémon anime and my love for the artists that produced the song.
