Terry would be proud of you, Brian.

This is so sad, Alexa play * Perfect Pokerap
Pokémon the musical let’s have it. All about a boy named Brian and his tangela
Press F for Terry
@@hughmcfall8634 or it could be the a journey to get back Terry.
im so scared of the power that the first verse has
it as a Strong Vibe and im scared about what vibe that is
the vibe i'm getting is like, powerful, coming at you, not fast like a bullet, but just as deadly, perseverant, walking toward you at a constant but calm pace on a dark, rainy night, unaffected by anything foolish enough to stand in it's way, and you realize as you duck off into a corner that you are no match for what it will unleash upon you when it inevitably catches you, you dig ?
when he rhymed jigglypuff and rockruff ? felt that
the whole "porygon, porygonz, porygon2, ribombee" bit ?? Felt That
the beginning part with lickitung and lickilicky ???? FELT THAT
the way he hit the Ts on that tyranitar ? stronger than the full force of god
@@eviemaybe i am getting that comment tattooed on my forehead
This went from triplet rap to abstinence to weed to opiate addiction to broadway to dream ballet to the most heartbreaking verse about a tangela I’ve ever heard scary fast
Have you heard multiple songs about Tangelas?

The triplet rap part is genuinely one of the mosy impressive things ive ever heard. I dont even know what else to say
I know a lot of people love Brian building up to this outburst of anger during the opiate addiction bit in the educational rap, but there's also something about hearing his enthusiasm circle the drain the whole way through and then try to snap back to the goofy educational rap voice immediately after.
this is what happens when you take a being of pure chaotic good and give him a platform.
Wrong. He's chaotic evil, waiting for the chance to kill god and then everybody else in the world
"Pure chaotic good" wtf? Are you stupid?

Pat's role in this is so severely underrated. He looks like he wants to die but he still does it. That's friendship
His dead-ass poker face makes it so much fucking funnier, too. God, it's so great, he couldn't have done better.

Pat is a paragon of absolute friendship and stoic comedy, and I love him so much for it.

Jumping for all the flying
All four for the ones on all four
Roaring for those who roared
Him with that guy whose name i don't remember to symbolise any opposite pokemon
Them being together with dual type ones that they didn't have a type for
Them being picked up to symbolise the shape and how arceus is basically them all

It’s just in keeping with the direction the wind is blowing at the time. He still explicitly supports the War on Chronic Pain Victims in the song- presumably because that’s also the way the wind is blowing.
Terry. Gone but not forgotten.
Out of all the Tangelas, he was the very best, that no one ever was.
i love you for leaving this comment
I was gonna be upset that Lucario was called a trash pokémon, but the tribute for Terry was… too beautiful for me to be truly angry.
Rest In Peace, Terry.
So maybe TheAuraGuardian disliked…

I love that unlike basically any other form a pokerap could take, this one would not have to have the song itself change to update with new mons every generation. Just make the audience participation lists longer and boom, new full pokerap anyone (with a sufficient sized audience) could perform.

Coming back to revisit this song, ahh it's so clever and funny and touching at the same ti-- FOUR YEARS AGO?!
Shoutout to the pure energy and confidence of “I STILL FOUND A WAY TO PUT EM IN THERE-!”
The most heartbreaking thing about this rap is how it became out of date in six months.
updated version when
That’s what the dream ballet is for, it lives on accurate forever
The audience participation section just got larger, is all, and will continue to do so into the future.
Well, without Terry where’s the point of every other Pokémon?
My most heartbreaking thing is that my favorite Pokemon isn't mentioned in this rap.... Relicanth!!!! I guess he really couldn't find a way to put Relicanth in there.... 😣
The line "Porygon Porgon Z. Porygon 2 Rimbombee." Kills me. I love it so much.
Polygon forced him to put that there. Advertising is everything.
SAME it’s my favourite part of the rap it’s so good
Yeah, it flows so well.
Porygon 2: Electric Boogaloo
it's definitely going in the fave-list yeah
Every time I see this and the unabridged, I'm still in awe. This is so so good
When you do the aural equivalent of squinting your eyes, it kind of sounds like he's rapping in another language entirely.
What🤣
“Why catch them all of you can’t keep the ones you love”
That line takes on a whole new meaning now
I actually had to wipe away a tear at that moment
Why?
@@salmamf4193 Because in Pokemon Sword and shield will be only some of them that you can have in the game...
@@fennekinlovers1964 aka you actually have to experience and play the game correctly instead of just using your level 100 Charizard named Carl to destroy every trainer in your sight.
@@potatobro342_9 I don't think that a Charizard(that is in the game) has something with the experience of game, I'm bored of see in every game Pokemon of 1st generations, the 50% of my favorites pokemon are of 4th generation and they said that this generation will be not in the game, I use MY FAVORITE POKEMON in the game, not the strongest as you said the charizard, I think is reverse as you said. Now everybody will only use the strongest pokemon and not their favorites for enjoy the game, because they will be not in the game.
He said he'd dance for the gods because he couldn't possibly express how graceful and amazing they were,
but then a handful of his best dance moves were exclusively for Terry.
Ain't that somethin'.
terry IS a god
@@julietterodriguez6078 Powerful stuff.
Juliette Sanchez Either Terry the Tangela is a god, or could kill God, and I do not care if there is a difference!
THIS CHANNEL IS NO LONGER ABOUT FANDOMS both
Decided to play this during the Ryme battle on Pokemon Violet. It works amazingly well. He finished the educational rap and started the 3rd song tone right as she was getting ready to terestalize her Pokemon so the tonal shifts kind of ended up matching the shifts in battle. XD
He got through 202 pokemon with the triplet rap. If he kept up that pace he probably could have actually rapped all of them in the length of the video. But that wouldn't be a Gesamtkunstwerk like this perfect Rap.
Brian putting Mimikyu in the "these pokemon are TRASH" category is my villain origin story
Sal if it makes you feel any better it’s all just dex order. “tentacool” pokes are up to gen IV starters, and the rest of the pokes are TRASH
Buizel and Croagunk were there too
*RIOT*
To be fair, that could just be a literal description, because isn't Mimikyu's Pika-shroud a discarded doll or something?
Garchomp, Talonflame, and Tsareena were all on the list. "ok but why tho"
He put Gligar on the cool side and Gliscor on the trash side...
The way he goes "Porygon, Porygon-Z, Porygon 2, Ribombee" is so clean I love it.
I like"omanyte, dragonite, charizard, magnemite, meditie, dusknoir"
I love “I’machampion hero”

I appreciate this studio version because you really get the chance to hear all the instrumentation that this song had packed in there that you don't get hear very well in the live performance. This surely is a work that Brian should be very proud to have created while under Polygon's wing.

Who gave this beautiful person so much charisma and just decided to over power him with a beautiful voice and dancing abilities?

Arceus and terry worked together
Also the ability to jump very high. That's an important one.

Proceeds to CRUSH
I'm nearing 30 years old, and I've been listening to this song for the past three years and loving it, but this year... I've played a pokemon game for the first time ever (sword) and I finally GET the ending. I used to think it was sweet and cute, but having finally played a pokemon game for myself? The thought of having to part with even one of my beloved team makes me wanna cry. The end of this song hits different now.

I think we are done with the trip-l-et rap, so now let's rap to educate.
Alright, here we go!
Are ya ready, friends? Hey, come on!
Let's learn a little something from the Pokémon
There's Persian and Mudsdale, Donphan and Huntail
Sandygast, Nosepass, Frosslass, Lapras
I love to say the Pokémon, but here's the catch
Saying them all kinda seems Farfetch'd
Let me Axew a question; wanna help me out?
It's time to Throh in more names
Come on, gimme a shout!
[Audience indistinctly shouting the names of 200 Pokémon]
Those Pokémon are Tentacool!
[Audience indistinctly shouting the names of another 200 Pokémon]
And those Pokémon are trash!
Combee my friend, I've got more to say
And if we Dig-a-lett-le deeper, we can learn today
So why not get Comfey, don't be Krabby or blue
Here are some lessons, and I Rotom for you
If you Muk around in class, you'll be distraught
Don't Bi-a-doof-us, just study a lot
If you're Slaking in school, you'll drop out sooner
And abstinence is key, or you'll get a Mime Jr
Swanna grab some candy for a sweet treat?
Amaura-mazing snack is a Pichu can eat
Bewear of Shiftry strangers who offer you hugs
And don't stick forks into Eelektrik plugs
Wear a Shelmet when you Rhydon bikes
Keep a well-stocked Bagon extra-long hikes
Make sure to stay away from that Ferroseed
And that's just one name people have for weed
There's Pansage, and Slowbro, Oddish, and Bonsly
Tropius, Seedot, Nuzleaf, and Stunky
And Blissey, Loudred, Dewgong and Goodra
Bounsweet, Bayleef, Hypno and Munna
You'll be Drowzee if you Swellow that Tangrowth smoke
Also Koffing and Weezing; hey! You might Machoke
So if someone says, "Hey, want some dank Lombre?"
Look 'em Dedenne the eye, and say, "No way!"
I tell you Natu do drugs, but if someone's smoking Treecko
Does that make them a bad person? Definitely no!
I don't mean to carr-Yanma point in this verse
Is that alienating drug users makes things worse
Don't lock someone up if they take a Hitmonchan
And criminalizing addicts is a really bad plan
Big pharma is the root of our country's problem with opiate addiction!

Might as well check how many we've got left!
(*spoken*) There's less than 150 left
Can I really do this?
(*singing*) I used to have this dream, back when I was a child
I'd make the Pokérap listenable, and everybody called me reckless and wild
But I never gave up, I kept at it everyday
And with Pikachu beside me and my 'dex to guide me
I knew that there'd be a way
To ignore all of the naysayers
I'd need a thicker skin than Metapod
Wynaut leave my comfort zone, jump in the Unown
Maybe someday everyone will applaud
It's Absol-utely worth taking a risk
Plusle make a few friends as I try
Seaking how to be strong as I Raichu a song

I still found a way to put 'em in there
No matter the Scizor the scope of the task
I don't need a Magikarp-et ride
I'-Machamp-ion hero, there's nothing to Fearow
My true power comes from inside
And that brings us all of the way to the top
I've said every name I can say
I'll let my body confess the names that I can't express
Yes, it's time for the dream ballet
Come on!
[Instrumental break as Brian expresses the essence of every Ultra Beast, Mythical and Legendary Pokémon through interpretive dance accompanied by Patrick "Pat" Gill]
But there's one Pokémon, my own holy grail
That I gave Kevin Punt, I hope that bastard's in jail
'Cause of all Tangelas, Terry is the apex
And I gave him up for my 'dex
When you love Terry terribly, and then Terry is gone
What's the point of having every other Pokémon?
There's a wound in my heart that I can't get rid of
How can I find joy, without my tangly boy?
Why catch them all if you can't keep the ones that you love?
Terry!
Oh, Terry!
Thanks to lyric genius lol
This was crazy. This was a nearly 40 minute performance. With this at the end. Not once, not one time in the entire 40 minutes did he miss the beat. He had every comedic pause, every quip prepared. And then said the names of a couple hundred Pokémon, and only missed like 2 to take a breath.
And it was completely memorized. He had no cues, no prompts besides the occasional glance at the screen. Which he did not do once during the rap. BDG is either god, or could kill god, and I do not care if there is a difference.
Looking forward to the Unraveled Unraveled episode where he paradoxically loses his mind over his own show
The only mistake was him skipping the second half of "Roggenrola" to take a breath
@@dexemthewise60 He also stumbled a tiny bit on Klefki, but otherwise it was great.
Bdg gon get killed by the event guards if he cant
Let us not forget that the man was under a table for 20 minutes BEFORE THE SHOW HAD EVEN STARTED

“Big pharma is the root of our country’s problem with opiate addiction”
*long pause.*
“Golem”
_What he speaks of is true._
g o l e m
Well, hes not wrong
I think they were trying to say g o t e m
I'm pretty sure he recited it once from memory during some livestream. Can't remember for sure though.
The beat drops at 1:09 (69 seconds) and BDG’s views on pot are shown at 4:20 this is either a huge coincidence or BDG is a genius
He's definitely a genius. Jury's still out on whether those were coincidental or not :P.
The fact that planning for this song and presentation started many months ago, I have to assume that this couldn’t have been a coincidence
At 69 pokemon in it says nice under the counter
both
Well, the Labo came out on 04/20 for $69, so maybe it's an extended Nintendo reference?
Truly BDG is a real life anime protaganist.

I often say that while my "favourite" song changes with my music taste and time, I consider BoRa "the best song". I hesitate even considering comparing anything to Bohemian Rhapsody. But yes, this is our generation's Bohemian Rhapsody. I still think BoRa is better, but pokerap fills the same niche while delivering in quality. In this essay I will
Clearly none of you have hear 6969
@@eek4179 Way to take it waaaaaay too seriously my dude
I love how I can't sit thru a 4 min video with an actual purpose but I can watch a nine minute video about rapping Pokemon names
Yes. And the full 30+ minute explanation of the whole thing? ;)
I did it and I don’t even care about Pokémon
I'm supposed to be watching tutorials/lectures rn but instead I'm watching this again
ARE YOU IMPLYING THIS DOESN'T HAVE A PURPOSE MR. SPEARS??!!
Lmao
As a 32 yo grown man and early pokemon fan, I have no shame to declare that this song made me cry
there’s no shaymin declaring it made you cry
I’ll leave now
i rewatched this after a while and i am literally crying, wtf
The perfect way to use Skrelp in a Pokémon rap.
Lmao YES, I cry-laugh every time I hear it
As he’s hair grows longer he get’s more powerful I’m scared what happens next

Bro this is the only video on the internet that gives me chills, this is fricking amazing
I’m here cause I’m 3 hours into my shift at work and I’ve had “Seaking how to be strong as I Raichu a song” stuck in my head on repeat while I make people coffee.
this is certainly a gesamtkunstwerk. everyone knows what that is.
Obviously, who doesn't?
What did he even say?
Total work of art just wouldn't do it
Then he doesn't explain because everyone knows what that word means
As a German it's kind of wierd to hear that very straight forward word being used as a joke :D
Brian is the reason I subbed to Polygon, videos like this remind me what that reason is.
Subbed for the McElroys, stayed for the greatness of BDG
Same lol
@@hanakikoi u right
I too subbed for Mcelboys, stayed for the greatness of Brian and Pat
I almost cried at the end. Its wonderful!
You, sir David, deserve every last bit of my respect
“How can I find joy without my tangly boy?” Hits different
it's so weird that i tear up every time i hear it, it's just, why is it so emotional?
@@agatha968 pokedex will expand over time, terry will be the only one.
Especially now
Basically me in pokemon but with Serperior
RIP Terry
You will not be forgotten
This was pretty impressive, and then he started using names as wordplay in sentences and it became transcendent
ALL THE PUNS.
Yeah the puns are fun
@@MsDogleaf ALL HAIL THE PUNS!
Amy Friedman all hail bdg the king of Poképuns 👑
he missed greninja
This has officially been added to my favorite songs list, thank you for this masterpiece
I come back to this once every 6 months or so to see if it still slaps. It does.
As soon as he said “can I really do this?” I got an ad that kept saying “no, uh uh, no way.” I blame this ad entirely on Kevin punt
I GOT THAT SAME AD
@@Celesteel0774 luckily I have adblock lol
@@mxelawlwnag3601 ok
He paid for that ad from jail
More like Pevin Kunt
Can you believe we're this lucky to be living in the time of BDG
It's the BDGE - The Brian David Gilbert Era
BDG, more like BDE.
This is the greatest time to be alive
The power ballad before the dream ballet is so authentically uplifting.
Pat joining in the dream ballet gets me every time... immediately followed by Terry 🥰😔🥺🥺
I love how at #69 it said ‘nice’ underneath
IoI
Nice.
The pause after opiate addiction
T y r u n t
well also at 69 sec there is a beat drop
#justsaying
This man is the definition of chaotic good.
Discombobulated36 music this man is the definition of god
This comment vibes with my energy
3:08 Missed perfect opportunity for Wynaut
he does it at 5:20
The fact that this song gets interrupted by an ad is a crime against humanity.
I can just imagine someone being so confused because they didn’t watch the entire video and just seeing the interpretive dance and the entire thing about terry
That was me. I saw this song before the video lol
Same
I saw this first, I got the dream ballet, I just assumed Terry was a beloved pokemon he lost in a nuzlocke or something
@@seanakinskywalker2619 Who did you think Kevin Punt was?
I showed this video to my friend and got about halfway through before I remembered that she doesn’t know anything about pokemon but was too polite to say anything
You know people love Brian David Gilbert when the shorter video that cuts to the chase has fewer views.
Hes so fucking talented. That was like a full on NETFLIX SPECIAL
It'll soon have more from folks like myself listening to this on repeat forever,,,
I like this one just because I can listen to it on loop for over 24 hours...alone...sitting in one spot.
This is still the best thing I've ever watched/ listened to.
