Nemesis is real!

Okay, not really, it doesn't have an official name yet (nor is it known to be a planet for sure, I think) but there's a "planet" that was discovered recently that's bigger than Pluto! And when I was trying to think of how that would fit into the Sailor Moon universe, I realized that in the Sailor Moon world, it fit the description of Nemesis very well! Similarities:
-Mysterious 10th planet beyond Pluto
-Cold, dark, icy place (note the scene where Sapphire and Diamond were talking about how there wasn't much plant life there)
-And it kind of has a weird orbit like Pluto, and in one part I think Nemesis was described as having an erratic orbit.

Now, I'm guessing it probably wouldn't be called "Nemesis" for real, since that was the suggested name for the "dark sun companion" that has, to my knowledge, been refuted as not existing, but I just thought it was neat how it seems to fit into the Sailor Moon universe well.
