Codes



We've got trouble, my friends,
Right there--I say, trouble right there in our Game Boys.
Why, sure, I'm a pokémon trainer,
Certainly mighty proud to say it--
Always mighty proud to say it.
I consider that the hours I spend with my pokémon are golden!
Help me cultivate quick thinking, and good strategy, and the ol' hand-to-eye!

D'ja ever get the glow of satisfaction that is earned from a perfectly executed One-hit KO?

But just as I say it takes judgement, brains
and skill to score in an honest game,
I say that any shmuck can stuff their pokémon full of Rare Candies.
And I call that sloth: the first big step on the road
To the depths of crooked training-- I say,
first level 100 from 90,
Then straight there from 10!

And the next thing you know, your Caterpie's beating up Lance's team with two Tackles each,
And your Weedle's laughing at Blaine's Arcanine,
taking it down with one Poison Sting.
Beware the mighty Magikarp
Who Hyper Beams a Mew to bits!

Like to watch some pumped up Pidgey beating Mewtwo with Gust!?

Make your blood boil, well I should say.
Now, friends, let me tell you what I mean.
You got
1,__2,
3,__4,
5, 6, 7, 8 spaces in a line.
Lines that, with no effort,
Can make Princes out of Toads
With a capital T and that rhymes with C and that stands for Codes!

And all game long, these cheating trainers'll be tinkering away--
I say, those young folks'll be tinkering!
Tinkering with their items, pokémon, badges too.
Get all 150! Never mind finding out where they live,
Or how well they fight or what type they are!
Never mind that satisfying feeling of a well-earned catch;
Just chuck your 78th Master Ball! And that's trouble.

Yes, we've got lots and lots of trouble! I'm thinking
Of the kids just starting up, picking their first ones;
It's fully evolved before they hit any roads!
We got trouble! Folks! Right there in our Game Boys!
Trouble with a capital T and that rhymes with C and that stands for Codes!

Now I know that all you folks are the right kind of trainers;
I'm gonna be perfectly frank.
Would you like to know what kind of conversation goes on behind your backs from those cheating cads?
They're there calling you morons, calling you dopes, cause you're taking on Koga at less than level 75!
And bragging all about how they're gonna get a Mewtwo before they see a badge!
One fine night, they head to the mall where there's a tournament on;
But they get turned back because they can't use anything Game Shark-enhanced.
So even though they're ready to go
With level-100 Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres!

They lose because they made them out of Pidgeys!

Trouble! (Oh, we got trouble!)
Right here in our Game Boys! (Right here in our Game Boys!)
With a capital T and that rhymes with C and that stands for Codes! (That stands for Codes!)
We've surely got trouble! (We've surely got trouble!)
Right here in our Game Boys! (Right here!)
Gotta figure out a way to keep the trainers out of cheating modes! (We pokémon trainers sure have trouble...

Pokémon trainers, heed that warning before it's too late. Watch for the tell-tale signs of corruption. Do you find yourself constantly Surfing along eastern coasts? Do you have a Mr. Mime named neither Marcel nor Miles? A Jynx not named Lola? Do you have more than five Max Elixers? Are certain words creeping into your conversation, words like...like Missingno.? Aha! And Pokégods! And so, my friends...
...We've Got Trouble! (Oh, we got trouble!)
Right here in our Game Boys! (Right here in our Game Boys!)
With a capital T and that rhymes with C and that stands for Codes! (That stands for Codes!)
We've surely got trouble! (We've surely got trouble!)
Right here in our Game Boys! (Right here!)
Remember your honor and how unwell such cheating bodes! (We pokémon trainers sure have trouble...
Oh, we've got trouble. Yes, we're in terrible, terrible trouble.
That evil Game Shark sends you all to hell in loads!
(To hell in loads!)
Oh, yes, we've got trouble! Trouble! Trouble! (Oh, yes, we've got trouble here; we've got big big trouble!)
With a T! (With a capital T!)
And that rhymes with C! (That rhymes with C!)
And that stands for Codes! (That stands for Codes!)

Remember, my friends, listen to me or your game may be erased!
