Ohhh, it's freezing out there!
Brrrrrr, close the door!  Did you get more wood?
Oh yeah!  Hey . . . what's that?
It's a Christmas poem.  "Twas the Night Before Christmas."  I downloaded it from the internet.
Ohhh, I know this one!  Ahem!

Twas the night before Christmas
And all through the house
Not a creature was stirring
Not even Meowth . . . ha ha!

Eggnog's ready!
Eggnog?
Yeah!  Brock made eggnog and Christmas cookies!
Alright!!!
Oh, you guys are reading the Night Before Christmas.  Ahem!

Twas the night before Christmas and -
Uh . . . I already read that part.  Pick it up from here, Brocko!
Right!

The stockings were hung by the chimney with care
In hopes that St Nicholas soon would be there.
The children were nestled all snug in their beds
While visions of Vileplumes danced in their heads.


Hm . . . where'd you download this version from, Misty?
Hm, hm, hm!

And my mom in her kerchief, and Mr Mime in my cap
. . . and I think Professor Oak was there too . . .
Had just their brains for a long winter's nap.
When out on the roof there arose such a clatter
*Thud!* Hey . . . what was that?  Did anybody else hear that?
I sprang from my bed to see what was the matter

Away to the window I flew like a flash
Tore open the shutters and saw Rapidash!
The moon on the breast of the new fallen snow
Gave the lusture of midday to Jynxes below

When what to my half-open eyes should appear
But a miniature sleigh and eight tiny reindeer
With a little ol' driver so lively and quick
I knew in a moment it must be St Nick

More rapid than Moltres his courses they came
And he whistled and shouted and called them by name

*Crash!* To protect the world from devistation!
Team Rocket!  I knew I heard something . . .  What're you doin' here?
We came to capture some rare Pokemon so the Boss'll give us our Christmas bonuses this year
Oh, isn't that quaint.  They're reading a Christmas poem
Oooh, Jesse, this is my favourite part!

Now Dasher now Dancer now Prancer and Vixen . . .
On Comet on Cupid on Donner and Blitzen!
To the top of the porch to the top of the wall
Now dash away dash away dash away all!

Anyway . . . as I was saying . . .
Move over, twerp, I'm reading this part!

As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly
When they meet with an obsticle mount to the sky
So up to the housetop his courses they flew
With the sleigh full of toys
And some Pokemon too!

And then in a twinkling I heard on the rooftop
The prancing and pawing of each little Machop
As I drew in my head and was turning around
Down the chimney St Nicholas came with a bound

He was dressed all in fur from his head to his foot
- alot like me actually -
And his clothes were all tarnished like Ash's, with soot
Huh?
A bundle of toys he had flung on his back
And he looked like a trainer just opening his pack

His eyes how they twinkled, his dimples how merry, oooh!
His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry
His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow
And the beard on his chin was as white as the snow

The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth
And the smoke it encircled his head like a wreath

He had a broad face and a little round belly
That shook when he laughed like a bowl full of jelly

He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf
And I laughed when I saw him in spite of myself
But a wink of his eye and a twist of his head
Soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread

He spoke not a word but went straight to his work
And filled all the stockings then turned with a jerk
And laying a finger aside of his nose
And giving a nod up the chimney he rose

But I heard him exclaim as he drove off to the mall
Happy Pokemon Christmas!  Catch 'em all, catch 'em all.
