Behold the New Pokerap!
 
Man, I can't stop catchin' em' all!

Wow, this makes Sinnoh the only region with no Pokerap.

marcc5m March 4th, 2011 4:27 PM

I like it :D
Also, now I know how to pronounce Cofagrigus :)

vaporeon7 March 4th, 2011 4:37 PM

Well it certainly was interesting and unique wasn't it?

Meduza March 4th, 2011 4:40 PM

Why, TPCI, WHY?!?!??!?

I was O.K with the return of Who's That Pokemon, but THIS?!?!?!

And I don't think they covered them all...

Can't Stop (Catchin' 'Em All)
 
TPCi collaborated with the Presidents of the United States of America (The band, not Carter, Bush Sr., Clinton, Bush Jr., and Obama) to create a new theme song for the franchise, titled "Can't Stop (Catchin' 'Em All)". Check it out:

It's not half bad, if I do say so myself.

Merged with the thread on it, I'll post my thoughts in a sec! (Because it takes forever to load). :(

Edit: Kay, this is weirdass. It's... only good to hear pronounciations. Some of which, are weird.

インフェルノの津波 March 4th, 2011 5:10 PM

...I know that they were trying to say something, but only "Fraxure", "Cofagrigus", and "Zoroark" stood out.

They're good singers, actually, but TURN DOWN THE DAMN MUSIC.

Charliezard March 4th, 2011 5:11 PM

lol, I don't know. It's reallly bad but that is sorta what I like about it.

Oh, I was wondering if Obama was gonna sing or something. Lol.

Catchy, but I can't understand half what they're saying. It's good that at least they included a description, unlike the original pokemon.

It's possible for something to be so bad that it's good, I would consider this one such thing because I can't stop catchin' em all.

Fushigidane-Chan March 4th, 2011 5:29 PM

I couldn't make it past ten seconds. I'll stick to Jay-Z, Kanye and Eminem for my rap needs, thanks.

countryemo March 4th, 2011 5:35 PM

Am I the only one who actually loved this one?
The rest were meh ok, i liked how they said most/all pokemon. evne though this one dosent say allot, but it has descriptions sorta, and its catchy.

Kevin March 4th, 2011 5:43 PM

It's... okay. Not the best but meh... It's not that bad, but I didn't "love" it either.

ManhattanTheStarr March 4th, 2011 5:51 PM

Wow, this is just TOO corny. XD

The Noob Hacker March 4th, 2011 5:59 PM

Not very good if you ask me. Lacks the usual energy. Plus, I just personally don't like it. It just seems like a boring song if you ask me, same beats over and over, and rather monotone lyrics.

unique sound March 4th, 2011 6:06 PM

i actually think it's pretty cute, one of the best poke songs imo :D

j2y8n2x March 4th, 2011 6:38 PM

Better than the GS Pokerap I think.
The music is ok, the idea is great, but I don't like the man's voice, I think it sounded too weak for a Pokemon song.

Lacking the usual energy is the main problem

Erufuun March 4th, 2011 7:17 PM

Oh my god, that is ridiculously awesome... My mind is BLOWN, okay. That is like the best Pokerap so far, even better than the first. XD
I give my kudos to Presidents of the United States of America. They did an amazing job with that!!

But I do agree, it does lack a little energy. It should be a bit more upbeat and loud~

It's very catchy. I want the lyrics of this song so I can sing it!

I want the lyrics too!
The lyrics are like the best part of the whole song!

OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire March 4th, 2011 7:41 PM

I like better the original three raps...this one isn't as catchy as Kanto's :(

Speed March 4th, 2011 7:52 PM

This is so bad, I think I'm going to cry.

Astinus March 4th, 2011 7:59 PM

The band themselves aren't bad (I actually like a cover that they did of another song), and a lot of other people like their songs. It's just that this one is...meh. It's not really what I'm used to from a Pokerap. The first two are my absolute favorite ones because of how fun and how much energy the songs had, as others have mentioned. This one just seems so quiet. With the exception of the chorus, it's not really memorable or doesn't have the fun part of just yelling out the Pokemon's names, as my friends and I still do with Kanto's rap.

LOL, I found it funny that Pokemon USA and the Presidents of the United States of America share the same acronym (PUSA). Even more fitting that an American-themed band is doing the Unova PokeRap.

The song was actually decent, IMO, though it's still trumped by the Kanto and Johto PokeRap. Possibly better than the Hoenn one.

I'm actually glad we're still getting a "PokeRap"; I hated that Sinnoh Pokemon didn't receive one (another minor thing is when some Pokemon happens to get left out) :(. Relicanth and Zigzagoon are currently the only ones not mentioned in any. I wish the old singers of Pokemon were doing it, though...

The Unova PokeRap song's background instruments were a bit strange at times, but I eventually stomached it. I'm still going with my own pronunciations... (actually, haven't pronunced much as I'm avoiding English name spoilers, though I realized I basically have come across the identity of each Unova Pokemon by accident. T_T)

Hopefully, we get a proper anime music video that uses clips of the Pokemon, being similar to the video of the original Kanto PokeRap.

I can't stop catching them all...

Regeneration March 4th, 2011 10:50 PM

Meh. It was rather decent. Nothing beats the original rap though. :D
