Updated Pokerap Manages All 718 Revealed Pokemon!

Remember the Pokerap? The song that would play at the end of the original Pokemon episodes? If not, it was a rap that was divided into five parts and ran through the week, brainwashing kids like me into watching throughout the week. I mean the rap was the holy grail of middle school nerds at the time. Knowing it from beginning to end meant that you traded in your dignity for a bit of nerd respect, so each and every day you were shoved into a trash can by the so called “cool” kids, you could at least waddle away knowing that you knew the Pokerap. And you were awesome!

The only problem was that memorizing 150 very strange name in a rhythmic manner felt like a near impossible task. Only the most dedicated Pokemon masters could accomplish such a feat, and if you did all those years ago, chances are you still remember it along side important milestones in life, like your first kiss, first job or first time you caught a shiny. I know I do!

Thankfully, the song was phased out long before the second set of monsters debut. Fast forward to today, and we have 718 different Mon’s to catch, making it seemingly impossible to recreate this magic today. Emphasis on the seemingly…

Thanks to the guys over at CollegeHumor, this impossibility has become a reality. Surely made by some passionate fans, (or guys with too much time on their hands,) a complete Pokerap exists for fans old and new. That’s almost 10 minutes of Pokemon names that go on… and on… and on… Okay, maybe it’s not such a good idea to bring it back, but it sure is awesome. And yeah, some of the names are grossly mispronounced, but YOU try rhyming that many names to that rhythm? Yeah, didn’t think so.

Check out the video below. I DARE you to watch it all in one sitting. I did, and my head is still spinning. While I might never be cool enough to memorize this rendition, at least I got through it! Hope you have as much fun watching as I did, and let us know what you think in the comments!
