If you're an Ed Sheeran fan, you probably know that he's a huge Pokémon fan. Now, he's going to live his dream by actually appearing in the game.

Ed's teaming with Pokémon GO for a special performance that will be accessible through the game.  The performance video will be available to view from November 22  at 2 p.m. ET through November 30 at 4 p.m. ET.  Ed will be performing some of his biggest hits and his new songs, like "Bad Habits" and "Shivers." 

Ed's favorite Pokémon character, Squirtle -- wearing sunglasses -- will also appear in the game for players to capture.  In addition, players can redeem a code to get an exclusive in-game avatar featuring Ed's album art for his new album Equals, which will be on the outfit he'll be wearing while performing. 

You can redeem the code -- 4SQS6N359Y7NPCUW -- via Pokémon GO starting November 22 at 4 p.m. ET.

The full details of all the Pokémon GO fun can be found on the game's blog.
