Epic Pokemon Rap Battles: Round 1, Gotta Rap them all!

Alright people, first of all the rules and regulations!

1) Single Entry due to sheer number of users in this round, so make it count. Later rounds will see this relaxed.



2) You have until Monday 12 March to submit, otherwise you forfeit on the virtue of being a pussie!



3) You can post the lyrics alone, put an instrumental link next to them and let peoples imagination run wild, record it live, have someone rap the lyrics for you, the important thin is 2 Minutes max for each entry IF YOU DECIDE TO RECORD. Later rounds will see this relaxed.

mattj did an excellent job on the recording part explaining how to do it right, free and easy:

4) On the subject of who goes first, talk to the player in PMs if you want, not in this topic! This topic is about swag, pics, raps, lyrics, cheering whateva but coordination if any goes in the PM between players. You can find all combatants here:

5) There's too many of you people! If you want to post MC names, pictures or anything else do it by yourself.



6) Audacity, Soundcloud are all good sites, others can be googled for.



7) You can reuse the instrumentals of someone else.



8) Those who want to choose a second mon in keeping with the pokemon theme of double battles. However:

A) You only get to choose another mon in the addition to the one you've already chosen and you can only alternate between the two

B) You need to announce which mon your using before the round ends or during the voting period, otherwise if you qualify for later rounds your mon will be the last represented

C) You cannot choose a mon(s) selected by other players. First come first serve.



9) DON'T TAKE THE INSULTS DIRECTED AT YOUR MON SERIOUSLY AND PERSONALLY, IT'S JUST FOR SHOW

Turns out, I'm not going to have enough time to do this, so I'm going to have to drop out.

That's too bad man, well at least you'll stick around to see the rest make some noise.

Um, dunno anyone want to fill his place?

Good luck to everyone that does this, that was pretty epic X5Dragon :)

If you let me do Dugtrio I'd gladly take Offspring's place. I'm already recording it now just in case. :3

Thanks man, glad you liked although my lack of "R" slowed me down at bits, but I was laughing like a child while saying some of the lyrics so it was all good :)

Mattj, first come first serve, prepare yo ass fo battle!

Oh my God, Deck Knight's going to rap about Octillery. Proof that there is a God.

If anybody else drops out, I'll take their spot with Reuniclus.

giving loven my spot and nidoking

gl nigga

I'll take yondies spot since I feel like he might drop out soon idk why just a gut feeling

By the whale, how are winners decided for each round? Is it just your opinion, is there a designated panel, or do we all vote?

oh god why am I the highlight match...

I'll pm corkscrew soon(tomorrow maybe), and I'm already working on the lyrics. Question: can I use the instrumental one for my rap as well? I LOVE that song.

I'm going to have to drop out due to some IRL medical problems...sorry everyone

All right, can I have Tolan's spot then, since he's dropping out?

You would be surprised at how right you are.

Alright, this is my first shot. If anyone really thinks I need a backbeat, I'll see if I can add it, this being my first time doing this.

Nonetheless, here's the first volley:

I'll get my rap out by maybe around friday..... So walrein, prepared to be CC'ed by ma boss heracross.

nigglets gotta represent

Woah, I must have missed something here, because I figured we would just write raps, not actually perform them. Is it mandatory to record them?

I can't speak for the OP, but some people aren't that great at recording. I personally wouldn't see why they'd have to be recorded, but you've got to understand that people will most likely have a harder time understanding them if they're not recorded. It would definitely give your opponent an advantage.

Sorry to hear that, hope you get better soon :)

As I said, first come first serve so whoever posted first will get the sub, then the second, etc.

Winner will be decided by polls.

Instrumentals can be reused, and I also updated the rules to include this:

3) You can post the lyrics alone, put an instrumental link next to them and let peoples imagination run wild, record it live, have someone rap the lyrics for you, the important thin is 2 Minutes max for each entry IF YOU DECIDE TO RECORD. Later rounds will see this relaxed.

Cause in the end prolly the only thing original is the lyrics for the most of us.


Finally:

"Take flight, with your overbite!
I can take your pussy Roar with my Suction Cups a'ight!"

ROFL

It's getting hot!


EDIT: Subs were replaced, let me know if I messed anything up!

haha this comp might be p dope
