stop putting celebrities in my Pokemon, ugh.

Look, it's not that I dislike Ed Sheeran. He's not my favorite thing but he's fine most of the time. And it's not that I hate when industries get metaphorical chocolate in my metaphorical peanut butter. I went slightly feral when Florence + The Machine did the opening theme for FFXV.

It's just, Pokemon has always been an escape into a simpler world for me. It was a thing that Kids Like and Adults Hate and there was safety in that. Ed Sheeran (and Katy Perry, but i don't think anyone noticed when she released Electric) belongs to this world, which is exactly what I'm trying to forget exists, and it introduces some uncomfortable cognitive dissonance.

I just hope they don't start playing Celestial over some climactic battle or something, uuuuuugh.
