It is unknown in what context this song will play in Scarlet and Violet. It is also unclear if the full song will be available in game. As of the time of writing, “Celestial” is #7 on YouTube’s trending list for music. It has already accumulated over 2.1 million views on September 30, 2022, though the video came out on September 29.
Aside from stylized cartoony version of the Pokemon (courtesy of artist Yu Nagaba) appearing in the music video, there is also a sequence that references Pokemon: The First Movie.

Ed Sheeran, the singer behind hit singles such as “Shape of You” and “Perfect,” will be joining Toby Fox as a music collaborator for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. Fox, who is famous for Undertale, revealed in June 2022 that he helped to compose some of the music for the game.
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet will come out on the Nintendo Switch on November 18, 2022.
