This is very relevant and too funny not to share.
Over 8 years ago, isakangtubo posted on YouTube their Tagalog Fandub of Pokemon’s theme song.
It’s “Bulsang Halimaw”, yo!
On the post, they said:
Back in 6th grade, my best friend and I tried translating the Pokemon theme rather literally, and it was just hilarious!~
Well, this is for you friend (kahit medyo iniba ko yung lyrics dahil tinamad akong hanapin yung inaamag na sketchpad kung saan nakasulat u_u)~ 😉
I recorded this in one take and didn’t give much effort to sing it properly, so try not to take it too seriously. ^^;
Original Song & Artist: “Pokemon Theme” by Dream Street

LYRICSGusto ko maging pinakamagaling
Na walang sinuman ang naging
Ang mahuli sila’y tunay kong pagsubok
Pagsasanay ang dahilan koMaglalakbay sa kalupaan
Naghahanap malayo’t malawak
Bawat Bulsang-Halimaw, uunawain
ang kapangyarihan sa loobBulsang-halimaw!
Dapat mahuli silang lahat
Ikaw at ako
Alam kong ito’y tadhana
Bulsang-halimaw!
O kaibigan ko
Sa mundong ipagtatanggolBulsang-Halimaw!
Pusong totoo
Katatagan ang hahatak sa ‘tin
Tuturuan kita’t tuturuan mo ‘ko
Bulsang-halimawDapat mahuli silang lahat
Dapat mahuli silang lahatBulsang-halimaw!
What do you think of the fandub?
