Um. So you know the Team Rocket song? Apparently it appeared in the show. On the one hand, I thought I knew the tune from somewhere. On the other...I don't remember seeing this. D: I like how they adapted it into English. I also like how James is subtly crossdressing. :D

Other observations:
- Probably the best version of the TR song that I've seen is the Italian one.
- Officer Jenny is "Officer Rocky" in German. I can't take that seriously at all.
- The Jigglypuff song is really pretty in German (though it's also quite pretty in English).
- Although for some reason Jigglypuff still says Jigglypuff, even though her name is Pummeluff. Then again, English Charizards and Onixes still say "Lizardon" and "Iwark", apparently, so.
- The German Pokérap does not change the order. So it really doesn't rhyme. Even though they could do that really easily. :\
- Is English the only language that came up with new songs?

Also, this. Watch it. You will thank me. Or possibly be really disturbed. (I can't decide whether I prefer that version or this one.)

And if anyone gets what I did with the "my music" thing, then...you're awesome. :D

His English voice was better in the first few episodes. Then it kind of got...like that. :\ I'm a little conflicted on the Rocketshipping front because on the one hand, they belong together, and on the other...James is so darn gay. D:

I think it's funny how we're looking at this from the opposite viewpoints. :D I'm sorry, but "Rocky" just makes me think of Rocky from the Sylvester Stallone movies. :P And yeah, the Pokérap rhymes in English, and you're not alone in being able to remember it. Electrode, Diglett, Nidoran, Mankey, Venusaur, Rattata, Fearow, Pidgey!

I really like the tune in the second one. :|
