Ed Sheeran has collaborated with The Pokémon Company group on a new song. The track, Celestial, will appear in the highly anticipated video games, Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet launching on November 18 exclusively on the Nintendo Switch family of consoles.
The Celestial video is inspired by Sheeran’s childhood fascination with the franchise and features some of his favourite Pokémon such as Pikachu, Squirtle, Machamp and Snorlax.
It follows a typical day in Sherran’s life (with a Pokémon twist) and was directed by Yuichi Kodama. Featuring a unique ‘sketch’ themed art direction from Yu Nagaba, whose style is reminiscent of the doodles that Sheeran drew of his Pokémon as a child, the video is full of surprises for fans to discover.
