    To be or not to be, that is the question. For you, "to be" seems to be the answer, since you have won First Place in the Lyrics Segment in the Pokemon Song Parody Competition during Get-Together 8!

    POKEMON SONG PARODY EVENT
    Are you one of those people who write as much lyrics as Taylor Swift after a break-up? Or are you one of those people who listened to the Elite Four theme and just had to sing along (to the nonexistent words)? Well, then this is the place for you, and its absolutely free! The Pokemon Song Parody competition is an event where you, the members of PokeCommunity get to write your own lyrics to popular PokeTunes (meaning the music found in-game, from any generation), maybe even sing along, and win prizes! It is a creative and fun-filled competition that takes almost no effort at all.

    Categories
    Lyrics Segment: here all you have to do is write new lyrics to Pokemon music found in the popular games. It can be witty, hilarious, tear-jerking, or all of the above!

    Singing Segment: basically the same as the Lyrics Segment, but there is one catch...you actually have to sing your lyrics to the tune! It takes courage, but these always turn out to be the most entertaining and creative!

    Rules
    1. All PokeCommunity rules apply (meaning be nice, fair, and nothing inappropriate).
    2. Multiple submissions are permitted, but only one can win a prize.
    3. No plagarism! Even if you are entering the Singing segment, you must use your own lyrics and sing them.

    Schedule
    Entry Period:
    12:00 AM, Friday, July 15 to 11:59 PM, Monday, July 18

    Judging Period:
    12:00 AM, Tuesday, July 19 to 11:59 PM, Friday, July 22

    Judging Criteria
    Your judges for this event are Lady Gaga and Bluerang1. We will review all submissions and make a conclusive result based on these criteria:

    Lyrics Segment
    Rhythm and Rhyme
    Appeal
    Use of articulate and expressive words and lyrics

    Singing Segment
    All criteria from Lyrics Segment
    Vocal ability
    Performance quality

    Submission Guidelines
    Submit your entry using these forms (they are not too difficult, and your entry will be denied if it does not use this format).

    Lyrics Segment
    Song name:
    Link to song (YouTube or MP3):
    Lyrics: (say when the lyrics start in the video)

    Singing Segment
    Song name:
    Link to song (Youtube or MP3):
    Lyrics:
    Link to performance (Youtube or MP3):

    This way we know exactly which Pokemon song is being parodied. For example, if you just said "Route 1", we don't know if that is Kanto or Unova Route 1, and even if you did specify Kanto, we dont know which version (since all version have different tempos and the such). That way, if you just give us a link to the tune, we know exactly what the lyrics are supposed to be sung with!

    Examples
    Song name: Pokemon R/B/Y Gym Leader Battle
    Link to song (YouTube or MP3): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9OO5VAKk0d8
    Lyrics: (starts at 0:04)
    First up is Brock he uses Ground and Rock
    If you start with Squirtle you got this guy on lock
    With a hit from his Bubble, you can take out the double,
    Onix turns into rubble, Geodude is in trouble (oh!)
    If you start with Charmander he's the hardest choice of the batch
    You will need to take the Pokemon out with Ember and/or Scratch
    Or you can, be a man, and go get a Caterpie
    Level ten, that is when, it will evolve into Butterfree
    Confusion might just be enough
    But be careful Onix can be tough
    If you have, Pikachu, you might want to store it away in a box
    It will get crushed by rocks
    If you start off with Bulbasaur
    Vine Whip, Vine, Vine Whip!

    I have an urgent question!

    So a guy who knows im doing this (he actually wanted to co-judge), sent me some lyrics that I could use for an example. However, they go to the Best Wishes english opening theme song! So, that made me wonder, is this for in-game tunes only (like I thought), or are we including anime songs as well?
