“Pikkaan!”, written by Giga and TeddyLoid, has a memorable melody that perfectly matches the lyrics that are full of the goodness of Pokemon, and it was a lot of fun to sing. This song made me love Pokemon! I think it’s a song that will surely please the fans who always support us, and it’s filled with points that will make it enjoyable for “Pokémon” fans as well. I would be happy if you could find me while singing!

■Hikaru Morita comment
I’ve always loved Pokemon, and I’ve been involved in a lot of different jobs, but I never thought that the day would come when I would be able to sing the ending theme for Anipoke, and it felt like a dream and I was so happy. . We paid attention to every detail in the recording so that both Sakurazaka46 fans and Pokemon fans can enjoy it. I think it’s an ending theme that you can enjoy even after the main part of the anime ends, so I’d be happy if you listen to it a lot and get lots of love from it.

I did my best to draw the jacket illustration so that I could make the strongest song “Pikkaan!” into a picture.
I would be happy if the jacket expressed my love for Anipoke, this song, and the artists who produced it.
