Is this the most Pikachu has ever sung?

 

[Hasney]

I thought this was ketchup heaven (mildly NSFW)

[Lotto]

this doesn't bother much as much as i thought it would. ketchup is fine.

 

[cwistofu]

It's a good thing they included subtitles.

 

[Toparaman]

Even after trying Pokemon GO, this right here is the moment I realise and come to terms with the fact that Pokemon just isn't for me.

Heathen.

 

[N.Grim]

I can't stop

Send help

 

[Rymuth]

Oh no, is Pikachu dead? Is that what's happened?

 

[Joey Ravn]

It just says Pikachu in katakana.

Yeah, but what does it mean!?

 

[lazybones18]

So Pikachu likes ketchup on his hot dog then? A true baseball fan

 

[Toparaman]

Yeah, but what does it mean!?

I think it roughly translates to "Squirtle Squirtle Squirtle. Squirtle. Squirtle Squirtle" and so on.

 

[Boss Doggie]

So there's gonna be a full version on CD right?

There's already a digital version, it's a full 3.4 min song. They're going to release it in the project character song CD vol. 2 I take it (first volume was XY&Z, Squishy's Song, and Team Rocket's Anthem). I reckon volume 2 is DoriDori Serena ver., Kira Kira Clemont ver., and Pikachu's Song, but apparently there's still more.

Yeah, but what does it mean!?

Rough translation of the Japanese "equivalent" of Pikachu's singing:
Let's go together! Let us sing!
Thump-thump! Shake-shake! Let's go on an adventure!!
Let's go even further,
It's alright
Because no matter what happens
We will never be apart
And we can share everything!

[Trojita]

Anyone want to try and translate it?

Edit: Translation edited in post above.

Must be a new ending theme in the anime in Japan.

My god. This had to be shared. LOL

Ketchup Mana Tree?

 

[plentyofmilhouse]

Adorable, insane ending. Everything about that video is great.

Perhaps this is the life he would have had if Ash had actually left him behind with the other Pikachu all those years ago.

 

[Boss Doggie]

It just says Pikachu in katakana.

nah certain parts of the song had a "translation" of what they were singing

Adorable, insane ending. Everything about that video is great.

Perhaps this is the life he would have had if Ash had actually left him behind with the other Pikachu all those years ago.

it's gonna be weird when Team Flare does Instrumentality and you got this ending song to end an episode lol

 

[Mr Swine]

Really really cute and adorable pikachu song!

 

[Hastati]

There's also that recent Magikarp song.

Amazing. So adorable. "Booingu" cracked me up.


Even after all these years I still really love Pikachu too. Looking forward to whatever comes for the NX.

 

[Rudiano]

 

[Forkball]

Since we now have Pikaspeak side by side with a human language, someone needs to make a modern Rosetta Stone and translate English into Pikachu language. I want to read The Constitution of the United States in this.

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

I do not endorse this video.

 

[YianGaruga]

I have found Pikachu paradise

 

[blamite]

Pikachu's ketchup obsession is the best thing about Pokemon honestly, I always forget about it but it makes me really happy whenever I remember it. It's so cool they brought it back after all these years.

Maybe they hate it but it is something they can speak the name of ... Kachupi ....well kinda

Holy shit... Is that why they made Pikachu love ketchup??? Mind blown.

 

[haikira]

Maybe it Capsup? Let's not jump to conclusions.

 

[Auron_Kale]

Between this extremely adorable song and the amazing Magikarp song, I'm quite happy that I can listen to both of these songs and have a huge smile on my face afterwards.

They're both really cute.

 

[Darryl M R]

Nothing cringe about this clip. GTFO!

 

[Joey Ravn]

I think it roughly translates to "Squirtle Squirtle Squirtle. Squirtle. Squirtle Squirtle" and so on.

But Squirtle is nowhere to be seen in that video. So... is it like an art noveau piece? Or something deconstructs the core idea of what constitutes a Squirtle?

There's already a digital version, it's a full 3.4 min song. They're going to release it in the project character song CD vol. 2 I take it (first volume was XY&Z, Squishy's Song, and Team Rocket's Anthem). I reckon volume 2 is DoriDori Serena ver., Kira Kira Clemont ver., and Pikachu's Song, but apparently there's still more.

Thanks. That "Pikachu" part was throwing me completely off track with my translation!

 

[Caayn]

 

[Deadpool_X]

That's all the blood of his fallen enemies, not ketchup.

 

[L Thammy]

Is this how the anime ends?

 

[DylanEno]

Now don't get me wrong, I love Pikachu.

But that was annoying as shit.

 

[Thud]

It's not even ketchup, but ketchup bottles.

Where are the waterfalls made of ketchup?

 

[BGBW]

As someone fluent in Pikanese those are some vile lyrics. Had no idea Pikachu was such a potty mouth.

Also after all that ketchup we may see the return of Fat Pika.

 

[Eradicate]

Actually, that may be about it, haha! All the rest have too much text, and I could only export this smaller video!

 

[Pokemaniac]

Since we now have Pikaspeak side by side with a human language, someone needs to make a modern Rosetta Stone and translate English into Pikachu language. I want to read The Constitution of the United States in this.

Pikachu's "dialog" is actually consistent enough that people have managed to figure out some common phrases it uses.

[Gentleman Jack]

There's also that recent Magikarp song.

This is much better than I thought it would be.

 

[Enter The 36 Chambers]

Pokemon is so fucking weird

 

[Luigi87]

 

[PSqueak]

Not....a....single......female....Pikachu...... =P

Adorable video though!

I didn't watch the full video, but i thought they were supposed to be copies of the same Pikachu, that is, THE Pikachu.

 

[Johndoey]

so if i'm seeing this right, a whole herd of pikachu just summoned a version of yggdrasil that grows ketchup

i mean...it's hardly the weirdest thing pokemon has done, but i just wanna make sure i'm understanding this

They fulfilled their blood oath to the Allfather and have been granted the promised reward, simple yo.

 

[Platy]

Not....a....single......female....Pikachu...... =P

Adorable video though!

Which reminds me ... Girl Pikachus have the black tip of the tail or not ?

Each game or image says one thing

 

[ColtraineGF]

Which reminds me ... Girl Pikachus have the black tip of the tail or not ?

Heart shaped tail is the common connection.

 

[Illucio]

The thirst is real.

 

[Professor Beef]

Which reminds me ... Girl Pikachus have the black tip of the tail or not ?

Each game or image says one thing

Female Pikachu have a notch on their tail that makes it look like a heart.

 

[Bubba_Sparks]

What Pikachu is actually saying is, "bomb Pearl Harbor!".

 

[Haunted]

Anyone got a translation for those lyrics?

imagining a human recording those sounds makes my skin crawl

YES

 

[DarkConfidant]

Well that video just killed productivity at my office...there goes Friday.

 

[Twookie]

man can twitter get a fucking volume slider soon

i love clicking on videos like these only to get my ears blasted by these videos



really cute video tho

 

[BRocknRolla]

I have absolutely no idea what I just watched.

I can appreciate the Pikachu though.

 

[IceDoesntHelp]

That is very clearly Catsup, not Ketchup.
