He clarified in a follow up tweet that he hasn't made a main track for the game, he "just thought it was cool".
Fox previously worked on the music for Homestuck and Pokémon developer Game Freak's recent role-player Little Town hero - as well as composing the infamous music for Undertale too.
Anyone familiar with his composing work will probably agree this is very cool news. Fox's musical work has got a pretty distinct style, it'll be interesting to see where it pops up in the new Pokémon title.
