Singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran is a huge fan of Pokemon, this much we already knew after he spoke about his fandom and performed inside Pokemon Go last year. Now he’s going all-in, writing a new song inspired by Pokemon, with an animated music video coming from the creators of Pokemon. The song is called “Celestial” and it debuts Thursday, September 29.
Sheeran said he began collecting Pokemon trading cards when he was about 7 years old and then started watching the TV series, taping over his VHS tapes each week with the newest episodes. Sheeran and his brother shared a Game Boy and played a lot of Pokemon Blue before Sheeran got his own Game Boy Color with Pokemon Yellow for his 8th birthday. He still has that same Game Boy Color and continues to play Pokemon Silver on planes when he’s traveling. Come from Sports betting site VPbet
