Post Malone released a cover of the 1995 hit Hootie and the Blowfish song “Only Wanna Be With You” ahead of her performance at the Pokémon Day 25th Anniversary Virtual Concert on Saturday, February 27.

Officially dubbed the “Pokémon version 25” of the song, Post Malone’s rendition swaps the fundamental output of the original track for a lush, echoing guitar and plenty of synth sound effects reminiscent of the original Pokémon video game.

The song will be included in the setlist for Post Malone’s appearance at the Pokémon Anniversary Concert, streaming at 7:00 p.m. EST / 4:00 p.m. PST on February 27. The event can be watched for free on the official Pokémon YouTube and Twitch channels, and on the Pokémon 25th Anniversary website.

Earlier this year, Post Malone appeared as a cartoon version of himself in the music video for his collaboration with Ozzy Osbourne, “It’s a Raid.” The song originally comes from Osbourne’s last LP, Ordinary man, released in February 2020. Post Malone and Ty Dolla $ ign have also released a remix of their 2020 track “Spicy,” now featuring new verses from YG, J Balvin and Tyga. The singer is expected to make headlines at Montreal’s Osheaga Festival, which is currently taking place in person from July 30 to August 1.
