wow 2 years???

Including waiting for movies O:

This video has been a colossal two years in the making. From getting the idea for it to its beginnings, to its inevitable completion, it's been a while. I wanted to wait until plenty of Diamond and Pearl was out (at least one of the movies) so that I could have Pokemon from all four generations included.

Yeah...

Mostly because I wanted to wait to get a bit of 4th generation footage in there, since it was on its way. I worked on it a bit here, a bit there. This thing's my baby.

Anyway, I've been trying to think of a non-Pokemon song that would make a good Pokemon tribute video, but nothing's coming to me. I guess, like my Cartoon Heroes video. originality just isn't this video's strong suit.

Ah well. They can't all be Slayers Cabaret.

i think that song is uplifting, if u used that song i would have probably given you a 5/5.

Well, I guess this goes back to the whole "you can't please everyone" thing, doesn't it? I love swelling orchestras, corny lyrics, choirs and big musical numbers. I'm cheesy like that. XD

I'm quite sure a lot of us have "guilty pleasure" videos that really aren't terribly great (though I do still think the Pokemon one is pretty damn great by my personal tastes), that we love anyway. "Perio's Plea" is my guilty pleasure video. The editing isn't great, video quality is poor, lip sync sucks on it, but it just makes me giggle.

These are the kind of comments that are the opposite of constructive.
