Pokémon's collaboration with Hatsune Miku has been renewed as Project VOLTAGE High↑ with new songs and more upcoming artwork. 🤩

Glad they're planning on keeping this going, it's such a cool collab!

This artwork is done by KEI!

My work for the High ☆ Voltage collab.

The project was organized by and for Italian artists (arcanumwhispers_ on IG, arcanumwhispers on X ) to celebrate Miku (and Vocaloid in general) and Pokémon, inspired by the recent Voltage Project!

As always when I draw Pokémon my priority is to try and portrait the fun and carefree feeling that they give me. And since Miku and psychic Pokémon were the theme I thought that they would probably spend more time dancing and singing rather than training for real.

Hope you like it!

Take care!

Hi!

For the high voltage ask game: #14 (ghost type)

Have a wonderful day! 💖

Since you didn't request a specific character, I decided to draw Freya from Chobits!! A literal ghost in the machine... the robot girlie who had 01 on her arm before Miku was even born...

Earnestly and honestly, Pokémon and Miku mean so much to me and The Pokémon Inside My Heart by PinocchioP captures exactly my feelings for them so, so perfectly.

I know that PinocchioP is one of the greatest Vocaloid Producers ever and none of the songs in Project Voltage have disappointed me, so I had extremely high expectations for this song and it still managed to surprise me.

This is by far my favorite of the Project Voltage songs so far, which is saying a lot because I've absolutely adored every single one of them. This song just makes me feel everything I knew Project Voltage could make me feel and more.

I love Pokémon, and I love Vocaloid. Thank you, PinocchioP ⚡💙⚡

Current headcanons for the Voltage Mikus

Fairy, Normal and Bug are a friend trio, with Normal being aroace and Fairy and Bug being girlfriends

Bug was DEFINITELY in the church choir growing up

Normal is also probably autistic and uses her glasses to avoid eye contact

Ground and Flying are butch x femme girlfriends, and are married in all but name. Flying is a coordinator and Ground is a battler and archeologist, and she’s constantly dragging her girlfriend off to her adventures

Water, Fire and Grass are in a polyam queerplatonic relationship

Nobody has ever seen Ghost in real life; only on screens

Ghost, Electric and Poison are all friends, but rarely are able to get together in real life because of their drastically differing professions

Psychic, Dark and Dragon are all known as high-level battlers who like to battle as a trio. Psychic is usually the first one to meet new challengers, because she has a much less intimidating disposition.

They’re all trans in some direction. Not sure about the specifics yet, but I’m thinking transfem Flying, transmasc Ground, and bigender boygirl Fairy to name a few.

(Note to self: come up with better names than just their type specialty.)

[miku-worldwide]

we have an electric type Miku alter from the Pokémon collab!

Awesome!! We love Project Voltage, looking forward to Project Voltage High!

We have a few alters from Project Voltage as well

So this is what Hatsune Miku would sound like singing through a Moog Subharmonicon.

The little white synthesizer is the Gakken NSX-39 "Pocket Miku", a stylus-based synth using the NSX-1 Vocaloid chip. It's in a mode where it uses Miku's voice to sing solfege — "do", "re", "mi", and so on — based on the tapped notes. If the volume of one of those sung notes is loud enough, it triggers the two Sigma slew limiters, which are tuned to output different subharmonics of that starting note. Which subharmonic is playing changes in time with the s&h module. (A deeper explanation for that is under the cut.) The three tones — Miku's voice and the two divided down signals — combine to create randomly changing chords.

We're exploiting the Sigma's Trigger input. When that input receives a trigger — the front edge of a high enough signal — the module produces a signal that's then slowed down by the Rise and Fall settings: the output goes from its lowest point to its highest point over the duration set by the Rise knob, and then back down over the duration set by the Fall knob. This process is how a function/slew limiter works as an AD envelope generator or an LFO.

To work as a frequency divider, you pass a repeating signal into that Trigger input, and it again does its rise and fall thing. Because the envelope isn't retriggerable, if the rise time plus the fall time is greater than the duration between the input triggers, it starts skipping them. The basic case is that you're skipping every other trigger, and your output now has a frequency of half that of the input — or, if you're working at audio rates, the output is one octave lower, because those are really the same thing.

The CV inputs are set to lengthen or contract the whole cycle proportionately to their input voltage, so when the random voltages of a s&h are given to it, the cycle changes the factor by which the frequencies are divided. Since the CV is attenuated to different degrees on the different Sigma modules, you get differing amounts of frequency changing.

Oppy had just barely made it to Lilycove in time for the latest Hatsune Miku concert. She wandered around a bit, looking for the venue, until she saw her friend waving at her

Miku! She runs over, stopping herself from tackle-hugging her Good to see you ^u^

“Hey Oppy! I heard you got the badge from Fortree! Congratulations!” She beamed, raising a hand for a high five.

they high five, then Oppy brings out her badge case 6 now! Plus all my team except Celsius and Strelka evolved! Oppy's pokemon - Serperior, Gyrados, Cryogonal, Ninjask, Shedinja, Litwick, Metang, and Type: Null had followed her

“Hey, nice! I always wanted to try raising a Cryogonal. Never really worked out, unfortunately.”

Celsius is great! He's been carrying me through the gyms and having him around's great for the heat 

Oppy then sees a familiar orange shape watching them at a distance. Considering the fact that Miku was not looking in that direction, the orange man did not appear in her view.

“I can imagine. That’s why I have Ice Voltage, to be honest.”

Oppy’s phone buzzes Hm? She opens it (over Twystcord): it’s Top Man

Opportunity was that you in the concert hall?

Yeah. Why?

...hey here's an idea. Why don't you take your friend and go check out the department store or the shrine by the sea and don't be near the concert hall for a while, k?

... >_>

She showed Miku Top Man’s conversation, and she opened her own DM with the Robot Master

Hey, uh. I saw that message. What’s going on exactly?

Well... Not sure if you saw the whole drama but I'm on slightly better terms with Opportunity now... the issue is, Dr. Wily now has someone in play who doesn't have that rapport, likes him a lot more than I do, and is a lot more dangerous in his practices... I don't want the kid getting hurt is all. I can't do anything to stop it, so I figured I'd at least warn her

Okay but like… I’ve got a concert tonight. Does it have to be tonight? Also you should totally come to one when you’re not working with a terrorist.

You have NO IDEA how much I want to be there and not with this bitter old fleabag and his drama. Also that was not up to me. I'm pretty sure Dr. Wily picked specifically tonight to make scene

Alright that makes things a lot more difficult because I can’t just. Not perform, I legally have to be there.

...good luck. Don't die :thisdoesnotpleaseme.png: (don't know if he'll do much more than cause a scrap ton of damage but you never know with this guy. He's a bit of a loose cannon)

Are you allowed to tell me who it is? I played a game or two when I was a kid I might recognize the name.

To be quite frank, Miku was just hoping that her being part Porygon didn’t ruin the whole First Law thing. Though it was the Second Law actually in this case (Wily had ordered this part of his operation be secret), but still, Top Man was able to manage something

Ninja- %(&(-&*% ^-^%-That's all I can say I guess

She looked to Oppy,  clasping her hands together. “Alright, what do you say we have a shopping trip distraction?”

! Sure! That sounds great!

but as fate would have it (of course) Miku's phone said that the concert was starting - the two girls had lost track of time - and she couldn't leave until it was over

Miku sighed slightly, but nodded at her phone. Her body pulsed, and her hair turned purple, her eyes a dark crimson. “Dagnabbit, time.” She shifted back to her normal appearance, looking back to Oppy. “Nevermind, we’ve got Bowling For Soup playing opener right now so I have to be ready in 10.”

Oh... I'll be on the lookout! Do I watch from here or in the crowd? I've never been to one of these "^^

“You watch in the crowd! I’ll ask someone to guide you there!” Almost as soon  as she said that, a green haired girl entered through the door. She didn’t say much, simply waving to Miku with a smile and waving to Oppy with a surprised face.  “Melody! Great timing! Do you think you could show Oppy to the crowd?” Melody nodded, making a gesture towards Oppy to follow her.

Oppy went back with the crowd (still toward the front though) as the concert began. As the opening bands finished their last songs, the curtains drew back, and Miku arrived onstage to raucous applause. 

“How’s everyone doing tonight!”

More cheers. Miku grinned as she listened to the crowd.

“Sorry for the wait, a bit of a software issue! But I’m back now! Let’s get this started!”

We love you Miku!!!!! ^u^

While she couldn’t hear the specific call, she did hear it as part of the crowd. To be fair a lot of them were saying that exact same thing. “I love all of you too!” Music began, and she began her performance. She really seemed to be getting into it.

Right as one of her more popular numbers was reaching its head, the backup musicians began being attacked by... a Weavile?!

The music stopped almost instantly (to be fair, the backup musicians were for an acoustic cover of Hypocrite Justice they were going to do later), and Miku turned around in shock. She immediately rushed to the musician’s aid, changing to Fire Voltage as she ran.

“Get off of him!”

the Weavile's movements are strange, almost as if it was programmed to attack, and when it got close to Miku, she felt its surface was metallic. The Weavile tried to hit Miku with a Throat Chop, but it was parried by a large, thick, pink hand from behind her. Miku was… rather surprised to see the hand, looking back to see who owned it. How’d it get this far, she was on stage alone, wasn’t she? Looking next to her, she sees Oppy had somehow made her way onto the stage to protect her. She gives her a thumbs up with her non-shifted hand, then turns to the Weavile, who's still trying to cause as much damage as possible, this time attacking a fog machine, making it so the area is covered in mist and the audience has a hard time seeing what's going on. Miku, admittedly, was starting to panic a bit. She was a pop star, she was completely and utterly unqualified to handle this.

Wait hold on, fog machine! She could handle that at least.

She shifted to Flying Voltage, leaping across the stage before changing to Steel, making her much heavier in comparison. She may not have fancy attacks or anything, but she could protect her fans.

fortunately a Mystical Fire from Candela took out the Weavile

Phew... what was that? And who sent that thing?

“I don’t know…” Miku put her hand to her chin. The answer was incredibly obvious, but she wasn’t really made for thinking with Steel Voltage. She swapped to Psychic, and the answer hit her like a load of bricks. “Oh right yeah Wily.”

Almost as she realizes it, the other fog machine breaks, and a stage light almost falls on her. Oppy moves her out of the way, then the mist thins enough to see a strange, ninja-like robot put the metal Weavile in a pokeball - this was DWN-024, Shadow Man

“Aaaand this is exactly the guy I was expecting. Oppy? You might wanna run.”

Back to Steel Voltage she went. Oppy shifts a shield around herself but stays 

I'm gonna help too if you need it!

“That’s kind of the thing? I was also going to, I haven’t done anything like this before.”

Neither have I, really. The other guy didn't really want to be there so he didn't go all out like this guy, but I think we can beat him!

Shadow Man throws a Shadow Blade that strikes Oppy and she recoils, but isn't seriously hurt. Oh dear, oh no. He was attacking the kid. That wasn’t good. How was she supposed to take care of this guy!? 

Wait hold on… if she remembered right he wasn’t made with the others of that line… but he was still weak to Top Man’s weapon… which could only really mean…

And so, Hatsune Miku, the Cyber Songstress, threw her full body weight against a ninja.

Urgh- What are you doing?! He tries to launch a Shadow Blade, but misses by a longshot

“Good question!” She responded, charging forward more. Maybe Fighting Voltage would have been better, but she needed the extra weight considering the fact that her opponent was made of metal.

Miku then discovers she was pushing against a log - the real Shadow Man descended from above and struck her. To be fair, she was expecting something like that. Which is why she was in Steel Voltage. However, she did not remember that she was barely over 150 pounds with Steel Voltage active. Stupid pop star diets. She made her distaste for the situation known, extremely vocally even. “That was just cheating there.”

Shadow Man grunted, then a second Shadow Man then appeared next to him, and then the two scrambled themselves, making it hard to tell which was which

Huh?! There's two now?!

“It’s okay, it’s just Double Team. Got anything that can hit both of them?”

She almost wished Melody was here just for the extra help. But that would just be adding another person who had no idea how to fight in here.

I could make something! she shifted her hand into a long flail, and swung that at the two Shadow Mans, only for them both to disappear

Behind you Shadow Man knocked over Oppy with a hit from behind

OW! NO FAIR!

“Hmm… there’s a bit of a problem here… wait, I’ve got it!”

She shifted to Psychic Voltage. That should give her a better view than Steel. If he’d just stay still she could enter his circuits, but she didn’t have that option. through Psychic Voltage, she's able to see Shadow Man attempting to sneak up on Oppy through the mist. Miku’s eyes widened, electing to — instead of being an idiot and punching the robot in the face — warn Oppy about the incoming stealth attack. hearing Miku's warning, Oppy instead makes her body larger, squishy, and slightly adhesive. Shadow Man gets stuck on her and Oppy traps him

Good job Oppy!” Miku clapped slightly. “Let’s see if I can’t do anything here…”

She approached the robot, looking for any sort of entry point to his system. She was hoping it would be simple, but things rarely were. Shadow Man's putting up a beast of a fight, and the systems are already hard to grasp, being not of earth...

Miku! Look! Oppy points out an interface port - likely where Dr. Wily would connect to for maintanence. She moves this closer to Miku for convenience

“Thanks!” She nodded, sticking a finger into the port and transferring herself into the droid. It looked like she was still there, but her eyes were lifeless.

Inside Shadow Man is a landscape that seems like Shadow Man's stage from Mega Man 3, complete with enemies. She gets the sense she'll be ejected if she gets defeated, so better make this count. She was so happy for this, she never thought that she would ever find a use for this. Immediately enemies begin approaching her - it does seem like she has some rudimentary equipment based her franchise. Aw heck yeah, she can do stuff. Apparently the question of “what would Miku do in a platformer?” was answered with “Whatever the hell made sense for the setting.” Miku eventually made her way to Shadow Man, in his mindscape, and he immediately began going on the offensive, jumping around and throwing Shadow Blades. Well. She was hoping that she’d be able to talk things out with him, but that did not seem to be the case. At the very least, this was a very familiar pattern. For Dr. Wily! though his attacks are relentless, she knows them, and in short order Shadow Man is defeated. Miku automatically ejects, but Shadow Man has gone slack

you entered my mind... I'm lucky I trained for that. You saw only what I allowed you to, but even still... I'm in no shape to fight anymore…

Being back out of his mind was. Definitely a shock. She expected to leave on her own.

“Normally this would be when we’d like. Blow you up and take the chip thingy but we want answers. What are you doing here?”

you're a fool if you think I'll tell you

at that moment an awful noise is heard and the Wily UFO flies overhead that descends a grabber claw that collects Shadow Man and startles Oppy into letting go 

Excellent work Shadow Man! We have what we needed from that lab now!

strangely, Strelka seems to notice the UFO and starts trying to chase it for some reason

Strelka what are you doing?!

“Huh? What’s going on?”

Miku attempted to chase after it, but as it turned out, being tackled by a ceratanium-adjacent-constructed robot when you yourself weigh 90 pounds normally really hurts, and she collapsed onto the ground.

Oppy doesn't notice at first, chasing Strelka until the Wily UFO flies out of sight and Strelka howls mournfully

Strelka what's wrong? Oppy then sees the guy from the Devon lab earlier

"Oh... it's you. Well if you want your dumb mutt you can keep it. Without the type memories it's useless to us, and given how much of a pain that project's been we're probably gonna cut funding for it. I won't bug you again about Type: Null"

Well... that's one thing down, now to deal with Wily. Wait where's Miku? 

realizing, she runs back to her friend and helps her back up 

Wily got away…

Miku was in. A lot of pain. Like… so much pain.

“It’s fine, we’ll get him later. Or. You will. I need to go to the hospital. I can message one of the others to help at least, I don’t wanna just leave you out on your own.”

I'll get you there, don't worry Oppy shapeshifts into a form that could fly her there and gets Miku to the hospital as fast as she can

Project Voltage personal preference tierlist. Within the tiers are the order of preference as well, from left to right.

I value pushing the definition of what constitutes 'Miku', so Steel, Ice, Poison and Rock get S-tier. Flying and Ground do that too, and I will defend their right to "be Miku", it's just that I feel Flying needed a clearer theme and Ground a more interesting outfit.

Dark goes down a tier for having too much Zatsune Miku vibes -- it uses very predictable 'edgy' visual tropes for my tastes.

Fairy is in top tier however because it does use its visual tropes effectively; the design is just that visually appealing. It's cute and it works.

Fighting is down a tier because while it is an interesting design and concept, I am very disappointed that the Fighting-type did not result in a physical bulkier Miku. The fact that hers is the slimmest and sleekest out of all them makes their avoidance of thicker bodies all the more insulting.

Ghost is high in the A-tier because even though it is a remixed V2 design, the use of colour gradients and transparency to communicate lighting and texture is so impressively done. Her limbs terminating into empty space where her sleeves and thigh-highs start is just *chef's kiss*

Psychic is cute, but its typical Miku schoolgirl-ness combined with the similarly typical starter trainer style makes it less impressive overall. The appeal of its colour scheme and art is what's keeping it in B-tier.

Fire has the same problem that Flying has, except its need to "be Miku" with its incongruent blue hair makes it less appealing.

And finally, Dragon is in D-tier because it represents the problem of trying to resemble Miku the most: the V2 colour scheme is poorly synthesized with Miraidon's, its silhouette is shattered with superficial spike ornamentation rather than using a more cohesive visual pattern, and its "futuristic virtual singer" theme is muddled by the "knights & dragons" secondary theme.

[pompadorbz]

Since voltage is doing their pokemon Miku collab, and weve already seen two pieces so far, I kinda wanna predict what pokemon she's gonna have for every single type!! Since the first two are Meloetta and Rillaboom, it's pretty easy to assume that all of the pokemon she's gonna get will be sound/music themed right? So Lets go through our options for all the remaining types!! Normal: Whismur line, Audino, Chatot Water: Quaquaval, Lapras, Tympole, Primarina Fire: Baile Style Oricorio Electric: Pompom style oricorio, High-key Toxtricity Ice: Lapras, Jynx, Mr Ryme/Galarian Mr Mime Fighting: Quaquaval, Meloetta (again) Poison: Roserade, Low-Key Toxtricity Ground: Flygon, Palpitoad/Seismitoad Flying: Chatot, Noibat/Noivern, Bug: Kricketot/Kricketune, Rock: Roggenrola, I guess. Ghost: Sensu Style Oricorio, Dragon: Flygon, Altaria, Noibat/Noivern, Dark: Obstagoon, Meowscarada Steel: Bronzong Fairy: Jigglypuff, Kirlia, Sylveon, Primarina,

These are all the ones that would make the most sense to me! Which ones would you wanna see?

[Image descriptions: Four pixel art versions of Hatsune Miku portrayed as different Pokémon types. 1. Fairy-type Miku has pink and blue striped hair and is wering a sleeveless pink shirt with butterfly-shaped ribbons. She holds a Pokéball in her hands and has flowers in her hair. A Pokédex floats in the air to her left. The background has horizontal stripes of pink and blue. 2. Bug-type Miku has dark green hair styled to resemble segmented insect legs. She is wearing a long-sleeve brown shirt with a tan tie and has short blue wings sticking out of her back. She holds a book in her right hand and a Pokéball in her left. The background has horizontal stripes in varying shades of green. The artist’s watermark, Artsy_VII is visible in the upper left. 3. Poison-type Miku has bright pink and purple hair and is wearing goggles resting on her forehad. She wears a puffy cyan coat and pink gloves. In her right hand, she holds a Pokéball, which she is pouring green liquid onto from a test tube in her left hand. The background has horizontal stripes in varying shades of pink. Text in the upper right says, ‘Do not reupload.’ 4. Ghost-type Miku has hair in a gradient of dark blue-green that is phasing out of existence towards the end. Her hair decorations are bright white and cast a glowing reflection across the top of her head. She wears thigh-high sucks that are purple and become black towards her feet, and she is lounging with her body turned away from the viewer and her legs up. A Pokéball rests on her left knee. The background has horizontal stripes in dark purples and light blue. \End descriptions OP plain text: Pokemon: Project Voltage pt. 3 vs. Hatsune Miku (#11-14) \End PT]

oh my gah the adt in high voltage fanzine is amazing im so in love with what you all other artists did and i love how each of you reimagined each vocaloid as pokemon trainers its so coool

Thank you! I'm always proud to join fanzines and artbooks with so many talented artists ahhhh 🥺💕

Most of us just used the official Miku designs made by the Project Voltage team, but some artists also made up their own designs with Miku or other Vocaloids, very cute 🥰💕
