A new Project Voltage image is now available via its official Twitter account, depicting Hatsune Miku with Meiko. The Pokemon species with them are Jynx, Oricorio, and Spritzee.
While all three Pokemon do not seem to share a common thread, they mostly have a red color scheme. This piece of art is not only to support Project Voltage, but it’s also to commemorate Meiko’s 19th anniversary. Meiko V1 came out in November 2004, with Yamaha developing this program and Crypton Future media Inc distributing it. She, as well as Kaito, precede the more famous classic Vocaloids such as Miku and the Kagamine twins. Some famous songs that use Meiko’s voicebank include “Tsugai Kogarashi,” “Hitobashira Alice,” and “Kowase Kowase.”
Buzz drew the picture for Project Voltage. Buzz has drawn art for Takara Tomy’s wixoss TCG, as well as provided illustrations for Hatsune Miku: Colorful Stage. They have several social media accounts, as well as a Pixiv.
Project Voltage first showed off its Miku designs and partner Pokemon in September 2023. In the beginning, the art mostly focused on how Hatsune Miku would look if she was a trainer specializing in a specific type. The art would also show her with a partner Pokemon from said type, such as a Primarina for Water and Meloetta for Psychic. Project Voltage also features eighteen new original songs that sample music and sound effects from the Pokemon series.
This Project Voltage art featuring Miku and Meiko is to cheer on the project, which will continue throughout Fall 2023. It is also to celebrate the 19th anniversary of Meiko.
