ROTFLOL. Oh gosh.

So years ago I wanted the Pokemon Christmas album, but wasn't able to get hold of it. Then I was frustrated because I heard that Team Rocket only had a part in one song.

I finally heard the album in full. That was hilarious and cracky and adorable. Team Rocket participated in many songs. My favorite was probably The Night Before Christmas. Priceless crack! The Christmas medley was hysterical too. The only thing I didn't like was parodying Joy To The World, but at least they just did one line of that. They also parodied Good King Wenceslas, but I'm always on the fence whether I consider that one of the sacred carols or not. I've parodied it myself at times. I did get the giggles at their parody of it. And then Ash did this parody of Here We Come A-Caroling that really made me snark even though I love Team Rocket.

I also loved that everyone was at a Christmas party and they had a truce with Team Rocket throughout the album. The characters talked at points throughout the album and it was such fun. And I am highly impressed with Maddie Blaustein's talent at singing in Meowth's voice. And on-key, unlike in the Jigglypuff episode, LOL.

I think I want the album for sure now. I can listen to it online, but that's not the same as owning the physical disc. It's such fun crack and so much better than I was led to believe.

That's awesome that the trio are in more songs than you thought! I really need to snag a chance to listen to it in full; I think "Home in My Heart" is the only one I've heard--I was curious since it was a duet between Brock and Misty, and wow, it was powerful!

And oh yes, Maddie can sing as Meowth on-key; I don't know if it was included in your DVD, but the 6th movie originally came with a 20-min short called "Gotta Dance," and Maddie sings the rapid-fire opening song in character and doesn't miss a beat!

Hopefully you can get the album! Perfect for this time of year!

Yeah, that is a sweet song! It is such a fun album. There's a smidge of Pokeshipping that I roll my eyes at; I don't know why the English version of Pokemon did that, as it seems so OOC for Misty. But it's such fun that I can ignore that.

Nope, I don't have any of the shorts. These are very bare-bones releases, apparently. But that sounds awesome! I wonder why originally they had her sing off-key in season 1 at least twice, in the Jigglypuff episode and in Lights, Camera, Quack-tion!

It totally is!
