5.0 out of 5 stars THE BEST ONE EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, November 26, 2004

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Pokemon: Christmas Bash (Audio CD)

WOW!! Pokemon has done it again! Brinig joy to us, that is! The BEST songs are (OK, they' re ALL the BEST):
#1: Pokemon Christmas Bash: (The whole cast sang) when Brock says -"I'm Brock back from the block..." it's so awesome! It's really cool also when everyone goes: "Joy! Jenny!"

#2: I'm Giving Santa a Pikachu This Christmas (Sung by Professor Oak and Ash) I just LOVE it! Especially when they go: "Now Chritsmas Eves will be a breeze as I have one of these!" Also "And from the shop and twirling...candy canes!"

#3: Winter Is The Coolest Time of the Year: (Misty): when Misty says: "Let's build a snowman," and Ash says, "I have a better idea..." it really makes you realize the true meaning of winter.

#4: Nobody Don't Like Christmas (Meowth): Meowth says: When nobody don't like Christmas, it's the time of year everyone adores..." I fell on laughing on the floor. 'Cause, you NEED to admit... Meowth is funny!

#5: I Keep My Home In My Heart (Brock and Misty): explains what Christmas is REALLY about-family, joy... 'Nuff said.

#6: The Christmas Song (Team Rocket): "We'll find it hard to sleep tonight..." and "I know that Santa is on his way..." just makes you, well, realize that if you're a grownup, remember how you used to be a kid, sitting there and not sleeping, waiting for Santa. And if you're a kid, it just makes you...wanna HAVE THE PRESENTS FASTER! A great song to keep you from watching the clock.

#7: Under the Misletoe (Ash and Misty) : "Maybe this Christmas a true love will show..." is one of my personal favorite lines, which Misty says. "Merry, merry christmas, I'd like you to know..." which Ash sings, is also awesome. Hey, I think this is a great song.

#8: Must be Santa (Ash, Brock, Misty): "Must be Santa, must be Santa..." is a great line. Very good.

#9: The Night Before Christmas (whole cast): "T'was the night before Christmas..."-Brock
"Uh, Brock I already read that part..."-Ash
"Oh. Heh-heh..."-Brock
"Pick it up from here, Brock-o!"-Ash.
This is the most hilarious part. It took me five minutes to calm down.

#10: Christmas Medley (whole cast): "You may catch a Pokemon you want on Christmas!..."-Brock.
"This one is my favorite!"-Ash.
Ash, I can't argue with you on this one. I really agree!
Karaoke versions: Pretty cool! (You just gotta learn the words first!)

3.0 out of 5 stars Pikachus Roasting Over An Open Fire..., December 26, 2002

This review is from: Pokemon: Christmas Bash (Audio CD)

Quite possibly the last English Pokemon CD release, Pokemon Christmas Bash isn't quite a bash, but fans will find a few tracks they will enjoy, while other tracks may make them cringe. For the most part, the characters do a good job of singing, aside from Prof. Oak, who sings Track 2. The first track is the opening track for the CD, and is kinda lame, though using James's strange "oooh!"s for music cues was kinda funny. Track 3 is catchy, but it makes you feel dirty for enjoying basically bubble gum pop. Track 4 has Meowth in all his tone deaf glory complaining about Christmas. Track 5 is a duet with Brock and Misty, and though the opening dialouge is pretty corny, the actual music is pretty good. Track 6 is a brilliant track featuring Jessie, James and Meowth in their rendition of the Christmas Song. Track 7 is an amusing song that I actually found myself laughing out loud at the end of it. Track 8 is rather boring, but Track 9, a Pokemon version of "The Night Before Christmas" is pretty funny, involving all of the main characters fighting for a chance to read the poem. Track 10 is a medley of various Christmas song, Poke-fied, of course. And the final two tracks are karaoke tracks.
Overall, this is a pretty nice disc for Pokemon fans, though they may enjoy this less than previous releases. Still, Tracks 6, 7 and 9 make it worth buying.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Fresh New Twist on some Traditional Favorites, October 25, 2001

By 

Rewa Marsh Schneidau (Las Vegas, Nevada USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Pokemon: Christmas Bash (Audio CD)

Unlike most "Christmas" or "Holiday" CD's I own, where most tracks are merely re-makes of Classic Christmas Songs from the 40's and 50's, this CD blends some upbeat tempo tunes that are unique along with renditions of some traditional favourites with a slight Pokemon Twist.

This CD features the voice over cast from the anime done in a tasteful and sometimes humourous fashion. Unlike the last two Pokemon releases from KOCH, that were merely the same songs on two CD's, this one has fresh new songs, along with some twists on some traditional holiday classics.

Some people say that Pokemon in in decline, NOT so. Pokemon is just in a transition phase from being a fad to a lasting brand.
