I was born in the Kanto region In a place called Pallet Town There I lived with my lovely mother Who would lift me when I was down See I dreamed I would be a master From the start, when I was small I'd become a distinguished trainer And one day I would catch 'em all! Then finally the day had come I could finally choose My beginning Pokemon This morning I'd best not snooze Of course that night I couldn't sleep Anxious 'bout the dawn So I woke up way too late And the Pokemon were all gone Well except for one Professor Oak Had warned me this one was kinda broke But I needed one to call my own So I took it but I could not have known That the Pokemon I'd chosen Would be with me every day And would become my closest friend We'd be together all the way It was Pikachu But, well Pikachu was real stubborn And at first was kinda mean But in time he would come to trust me Better friends there had never been So we started on our big journey On my dream since I was small To become a distinguished trainer We were gonna catch 'em all! But we diddn't embark just us two Pretty soon I had a team I met two trainers Brock and Misty And they both shared this crazy dream But the road wasn't always easy With Team Rocket on the chase They kept scheming and plotting evil But we sent them right into space I also had a nemesis Pompous Gary Oak He always was a step ahead And his presence just made me choke But I kept going badge by badge Not by winning fights I won them helping people out I just did what I thought was right And then step by step Across the land Each Pokemon to understand We foiled mean schemes And saved some lives And made sure Pokemon could thrive And then finally the time came With eight badges to my name I could do battle in the Indigo League Now I'd stake my claim! So I went to Valencia Island To retrieve the GS Ball There I also met Tracy Sketchit And you guessed it, he liked to draw Like before there were wild adventures With deception and intrigue But we kept on and we got stronger And then I won the Orange League Then finally we came back home All seemed good and well Then Gary beat me fair and square I was driven and you could tell We left for Jhotto to prepare For the silver league Now this would be my ultimate chance I was worthy I'd finally see After many quests and countless tests As we strived to be the very best After endless fights And sleepless nights We were finally back In the statium lights Facing Gary in full battle Now my Charizad came through I defeated him And we became like friends, I guess Who knew?! I did real well in the Silver League My dreams are coming true And that it's just a look at my life Now the rest is up to you! Now go off on your own adventure Take your Pokemon and go! There is no one around to stop you Go and learn all there is to know And one day you could be a master Whether you are big or small You'll become a distinguished trainer And one day you would catch 'em all!
