The Slowpoke Song

A year after it was released in Japan, The Pokémon Company dubbed The Slowpoke Song. I want to think the delay is part of the joke.

The Slowpoke Song Lyrics:

Slow slow slow
Ah-oo what's your story, Slowpoke?
Slow slow slow
Ah-oo what's your story, Slowpoke?
Every night, you're the one
Dreams of waking with the sun
But you sleep in 'til noon (Slowpoke)
Your pink hue
Is your color, through and through
I can see it's the real you (Slowpoke)
Your big mouth
Like a supermarket door
Open seven/twenty-four (Slowpoke)
Your sweet tail sap
Is a yummy yummy snack
We're hungry and we want more
(Slowpoke)
You're so slow, that
Your picture never blurs
The speedometer concurs
(Slowpoke)
Slow slow slow
Ah-oo what's your story, Slowpoke?
Slow slow slow
Ah-oo what's your story, Slowpoke?

Lose your tail, that's all right
It'll grow back someday
That's really cool (Slowpoke)
Dopey Pokémon, the
Category they settled on
Too bad for you (Slowpoke)
What word starts with "S"
And ends with letter "E"?
It's obviously…(Sunstroke)
You fish with your tail
But you're too slow when they bite
And so they swim out of sight (Slowpoke)
Your slow-motion roll has got a lot of soul
It's your cruise control
(Slowpoke!)
Slow slow slow
Ah-oo what's your story, Slowpoke?
Slow slow slow
Ah-oo what's your story, Slowpoke?
You yawn a single time
Down comes the rain sublime
If the famous legend is true
But you've been yawning all day long
And the blue skies aren't gone
You've got some explaining to do
A Shellder bites your tail
And then you become a Slowbro
That's a dopey evolution (Slowpoke)
Everywhere you go
There are Slowpoke passing through
Maybe there's one right behind you (Slowpoke)
Plodding, poky,
sluggish, tardy,
so late you're early (Slowpoke)

Slow slow slow
Dude, what's your deal, Slowpoke?
Slow slow slow
Ah-oo what's your story, Slowpoke?
A great big Berry fell
Bonked you on the head
But you feel no pain (Slowpoke)
Your ears curl in—there's a reason, you said
What was it again? (Slowpoke)
You just said "SLO"
Did you feel that Berry only just now?
You're really somethin' (Slowpoke)
Someday you'll be Slowbro, or maybe even Slowking
Or you'll just keep bein' (Slowpoke)
Stand in a ring
Bite your buddy's tail for lunch
What a happy looking bunch
Slowpoke!

Slow slow slow
Ah-oo what's your story, Slowpoke?
Slow slow slow
Slowpoke!

Now I'm drowsy. Also, it's apparently Slowpoke Week.
 
So good. :D The Slowpoke on my keychain has lasted like 10 years, but he doesn't have a lot of paint left. One day I'll replace him... one day...

*Pokémon company looking at the numbers*
- So this is one of the most popular Pokémon we've come up with. But why?
- I don't know. Nobody does.
- So, what should we do with this knowledge? What should we do with... Slowpoke?
- I think I've got an idea.
 
In case anyone misses it, its a new promotion for Slowpoke stuff showing up in the pokemon center website.

I hope we get the tail plush sometime.

One of the weirdest song that I have ever heard but I like it.

I feel like this is a good reaction gif for a significant number of GAF posts.

Daw it's adorable.

A Shellder bites your tail
And then you become a Slowbro
That's a dopey evolution


Love it.

Liess Slowpoke evolves at level 37....

I wish that Game Freak reconned it so that you need a Shellder in your party for it to evolve at level 37.

Those are good lyrics.

I got a slowpoke doll last pokemon centre I went to in Sunshine City, Tokyo. Waiting on those Substitute dolls to come back in fashion tho
