Over the last year we have seen Pokemon Company He has collaborated with various artists. From Post Malone to Katy Perry. Now, today the music video for Celestiaa song by Ed Sheeran inspired by his childhood playing Pokémon.
The music video introduces us to the UK singer as a child, interacting with pokémon like Pikachu, Squirtle and Snorlax. This was what Sheeran commented on his collaboration with The Pokémon Company:
“I have played Pokémon since I was in elementary school. My brother had one version and I had the other and we traded Pokémon to complete our Pokédex. I also liked cards, but with video games I could spend hours and hours. I loved the world in them, and they helped me avoid and distract myself from negative things that happened to me at school or in life in general. It was a world he could escape to. I haven’t stopped playing since then. Even though I’m 31 now, I still carry the same Game Boy Color with me to play Pokémon Yellow and Pokémon Silver on planes and trains when I’m on tour. For me it is an honor to contribute a song to a Pokémon game and also to be able to record such a nostalgic video. I hope everyone enjoys them. I had an amazing time making them!”
For his part, Kenji Okubo, president of The Pokémon Company International, commented:
“Working with a superstar like Ed has been a dream come true. We are huge fans of his, and not only was he a joy to work with, but his genuine love for Pokémon is clearly visible. Yuichi Kodama also did a great job of capturing the children’s pure joy and adventurous spirit in the video. They both love Pokémon, which makes this collaboration very special. We can’t wait to see Pokémon fans and music fans sing ‘Celestial’. I also hope that you look forward to enjoying the song when Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet arrive.”
Unlike other songs, which were focused on celebrating the 25th anniversary of the series, Celestia was created to promote the new generation of Pokémon. We remind you that Scarlet & Violet They will arrive on the Nintendo Switch on November 18, 2022.
